Trick or Treat!🎃 In this fictitious focus group, Ticketmaster chose "Trick". Focus groups are a great way for brands to gain consumer insights on the latest market trends, marketing campaigns, and new product development - even the fake ones😂 While we would never condone actually "tricking" your customers, keep watching to see how Ticketmaster amusingly tricked this group of festival-goers into providing feedback on the newest "festival products." How would you react if you were one of the participants in this focus group? Would you have been able to keep a straight face? Or would you have been skeptical? #ticketmaster #focusgroup #famousfocusgroups #workprank #prank #funnyprank #focusgroupparticipants #festivaltrends #musicfestival #marketresearch #marketresearchstudy #consumerinsights

The allegations involve monopolistic practices that enable Ticketmaster to engage in price gouging using dynamic pricing tools.

The DOJ's antitrust lawsuit against Live Nation and Ticketmaster highlights Oak View Group (OVG) 73 times, alleging collusion to stifle competition in the live entertainment sector. In fact, OVG which operates both London's Budweiser Gardens and is overseeing the upcoming 'Hamilton Arena Project' has its own line in the Department of Justice complaint/document. So why does this matter to smaller markets of independent venues such as Kitchener or those who do not use Ticketmaster or have a massive purchasing department for live entertainment? 1. OVG ceded the tour promotions business to Live Nation, and Live Nation returned the favour, ceding the arena development and consultancy business to OVG and its OVG (Arena) Alliance. In plain words - not our arena or venue, not your show to have. 2. OVG’s presence in the venue world enables it to steer Live Nation content to its venues, whether owned or merely operated, and impose the use of Ticketmaster on those venues through a 2022 deal between the two parties that made Ticketmaster the official ticketing provider of OVG. Although OVG is not directly sued, its close relationship with Live Nation raises questions about its role and potential indirect consequences from the case. Consequences that small communities with independent venues not using Ticketmaster (or its subsidiaries such as TicketWeb or FrontGate Tickets) feel directly (or indirectly) with re-routing tours or events away from such venues or communities drawing profits to the OVG, or Live Nation owned subsidiaries. #kitchener #ticketing #livenation #liveentertainment https://lnkd.in/gedb6JR7

In an environment where there are multiple independent/mid-market and venture-funded ticketing companies, is competition between them leading to lower service fees for fans, or at least to lower service fees for venues and promoters who are capturing margin by marking the fees up? Set the large, vertically integrated, corporate ticketing/promotion companies aside. They are in a different business. Just pure play ticketers - what’s the current state of play? In the time that I have not been paying attention I lost my feel for the market dynamic.
