At Eventbrite, we’re always thinking of ways we can empower you in your marketing journey – whether you’re an experienced promoter or planning your first-ever event.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to event marketing. That’s why we’ve researched current marketing trends and talked to dozens of creators just like you to better understand what it takes to be a marketing pro, no matter your background or expertise.
After gathering all our research and combing through the noise, we’re excited to finally launch Eventbrite Academy: an event creator’s guide to social media marketing. Best of all – it’s free to access!
Why Eventbrite Academy?
Event marketing is harder than ever these days. High quality advertisements overwhelm consumers across multiple social media channels. Standing out with successful event marketing requires a thorough, holistic approach – not to mention a big learning curve.
We also know sifting through marketing tips online is time consuming – talk about resource overload. At a certain point, you just want to focus on hosting events. Enough worrying about marketing!
At Eventbrite Academy, we’ve compiled tips and tricks from Eventbrite marketing experts and successful event creators to teach you how to get the most out of your marketing, with as little headache as possible.
