Event ticketing companies · Content marketing
Publish the guides an organiser reads before choosing where to sell tickets.
Content marketing for a ticketing company is writing for two readers: the organiser planning an event and the attendee planning a weekend. GullySales plans the guides, the city roundups and the event recaps that bring both to your pages.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What content marketing means
Content marketing is writing articles, guides and pages that answer the questions buyers search before they are ready to enquire. This makes your business visible and trusted before the first call. GullySales plans this content from the first conversation onward, choosing topics that match real search demand rather than guesses.

For event ticketing companies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Organisers research before they ring”
A cultural secretary preparing a fest reads about ticket pricing, gate entry and payouts first. Guides that answer those questions in plain words put your platform in front of the person before the first call.
“Roundups win the weekend search”
A page that gathers the shows, runs and workshops in a city for the coming days answers a question people ask every week. It only works if the page is kept current, so someone must own its updates.
“Recaps are proof with a date on them”
A write-up of a finished event, with the venue, the format and how entry worked, shows an organiser what happened behind the scenes. It needs the organiser's consent and no claim you cannot support.
“Policy writing is content”
How refunds, reschedules and cancellations work is what a worried buyer or organiser searches for. A clear page in everyday language earns trust, and it reduces the same question reaching the support inbox.
What we do
What we deliver for event ticketing companies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Organiser guide series
Guides for each event type: how to price, set ticket types, plan gate entry and read a payout statement.
Result: Each organiser event type has a guide that links to its page.
City weekend roundups
Roundup pages for the cities you serve, kept in step with live listings.
Result: A roundup exists per city and lists only events currently on sale.
Event recap template
A format for recaps covering the event, the venue, ticket types and how entry ran, approved by the organiser.
Result: Each recap carries the same fields and an organiser sign-off.
Plain policy pages
Pages on refunds, cancellations, fake-ticket checks and gate verification, written in everyday language.
Result: Support replies can point to a page rather than retyping.
An editorial calendar by event season
A plan that follows college fests, festival periods, sports seasons and conference months.
Result: Topics are scheduled against the dates organisers plan around.
How the result is measured
- Pages published
- Organic traffic
- Enquiries from content pages
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Posts and pieces to plan
Guides and pages an organiser reads before choosing where to sell tickets.
- How ticket fees are built and who pays
- A guide to the platform fee, the payment gateway cost and tax, with a worked example showing the buyer and the organiser views.
- Setting seat types and prices for a first show
- A guide for a first-time organiser that explains early, regular and group prices and how to close a type.
- What happens at the gate
- A step-by-step piece on scanning, entry lists and re-entry, with a screenshot from the organiser app.
- Refunds and cancelled shows
- A plain policy page that states who refunds, how the buyer is told and what the organiser does.
- Weekend roundup for the city
- A list page with shows by day and genre. It needs the real listings and a refresh when they change.
- Event recap with real numbers
- A recap written with the organiser's agreement. It needs the date, the venue and only the figures the organiser approves.
Who it is for
This is written for these event ticketing companies.
- Concert and music festival ticketing platforms
- Comedy, theatre and live performance ticketing

- Sports league and marathon registration platforms
- Workshop, seminar and conference registration ticketing
- Exhibition and trade show entry ticketing
- Religious and cultural event pass providers
- White-label ticketing providers for venues and clubs
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- Your fee terms keep changing, so guides quoting them would be out of date.
- No organiser has agreed to a recap, so a proof piece would have to rest on claims you cannot show.
- You do not have anyone who can check a draft against the real product, so guides would describe features loosely.
How it works
How the content marketing work runs
The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.
- 1
Agree the plan
Topics and formats come from the content strategy and the buyer-question list. The volume goes into the written scope, agreed with you, not into a number quoted on a call.
- 2
Brief and draft
Each piece starts from its one-page brief and a short conversation with your technical person, recorded if they allow it, so the draft uses their words.
- 3
Check the facts
Your person marks the draft for accuracy and we correct it. Regulated subjects also go to your own adviser, because restrictions on claims apply to articles as much as to advertisements.
- 4
Publish and distribute
The piece goes live on your site, then out through the channels where your buyers already are.
- 5
Read the enquiries and adjust
Results are reported against the baseline recorded before work began. Topics that brought readers but no enquiries are changed or dropped. How often you are reported to is agreed in writing.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
