Find special requests requests3 from online patrons 
When patrons purchase a ticket online, they can add a special request or other information in the "Remarks" field. While you can find the remarks in email confirmations, sometimes it's handy to run a report to review all the remarks that have been entered in Webtix for a particular time period.

It's easy! Learn more.

Cha cha cha! Get schooled on how to useclass Wintix to sell class and workshop registrations
One way many theatres engage with their community and help support the company is by offering classes and workshops to their patrons.

Wintix is a great tool for that because you can use it to sell class registrations as easily as you can sell tickets!

Registrations can be set up a couple of different ways - either as "shows" or "season packages."

Learn more about how to set up class registrations in Wintix.
Notify Flags are flying to get your flag2attention
All your patrons are important but some deserve some extra special treatment.

Wintix has a feature called "Notify Flags" you can use to help alert the box office when someone special, like a donor or a board member, is purchasing a ticket.

You can put notify flags in a customer's record. When you do a sale to them, a reminder will appear so you can treat them especially well during their purchase.

"Hello, Ms. Jones. We love having board members join us for performances!"

Then you can obtain a list of patrons who have a notify flag, so you can treat them to an exclusive reception, send them a thank you card, or anything you can dream up to make them feel special.

Learn more about Notify Flags.
