About Me
Welcome to my site! Here you can learn how to become a successful ticket broker. Using these simple tips, you will be ahead of 90% of the people out there who are trying to jump into this business.
Ticket brokering is not only extremely profitable, its also an extremely fun hobby. I gotta admit, I love what I do. So how did I get into this game? Well, here is my story…
To start, I am someone who loves going to concerts and sporting events. The way I became aware of this business is because as someone who loves going to these events, I realized it was incredibly difficult to get tickets for the bigger ones. Many events sell out in 10 minutes on Ticketmaster, and so I always had to go to Ebay or Stubhub to get the tickets. I also always noticed that once the tickets were on Ebay or Stubhub, they were usually about twice their original price, and many times a lot more than that if the seats were good.
It was at that point that I decided I wanted to be a part of that business for two reasons. The first was the incredible amount of money I could make if I could just learn to buy tickets from Ticketmaster the way the professionals do. The second reason was I love concerts and sporting events!
I go to these events a lot more than I used to because I now know how to get tickets as cheaply as possible. I’ve been to more Superbowls and World Series games than anyone I know! Plus I get to see my favorite musicians year after year now. Its way more interesting keeping up with concerts and sports events than what I used to do for a living (commodities / finance).
There is a lot of money to be made ticket brokering, and it can also be your first taste on how to make money off of Ebay, and other ways to make money from home. Brokering tickets online is definitely the easiest way to start learning about making money from home, and it is a chance I recommend everyone take.
You can make a ton from strictly selling tickets ($50,000+ yearly easy), but once you learn this business, you can REALLY start to make some money with other online ventures.
When I first jumped into this hobby (I was doing it on the side of my full-time job), I had varying success for about six months. Some tickets I would sell for a good profit, and others never sold and I would take a loss. In spite of the losses, I already saw the potential to make big money very easily. So what was my first big win?
I made over $600 dollars off of 4 Billy Joel/Elton John tickets for a concert they had in Philly. Amount of total work? 2 hours.
That’s when I decided it was time to get smart about this business. I jumped online and found a fantastic ebook that gave me all kinds of great insight into ways to really make money in this business. This ebook has literally transformed my life, and I couldn’t be happier.
So now that I’ve been doing this for a little while, let me tell you a few reasons this is one of the best and most fun businesses out there:
1. You work from home.
2. You are your own boss.
3. You make A LOT of money.
4. You will be going to more concerts and sporting events than anyone you know – this includes Superbowls, NBA Playoffs, world series games…it’s a dream come true.
Here is a modest outline of how much people can make if they treat ticket brokering like a business:
On the side while they have a full time job: $10,000
Full-time your first year: AT LEAST $40,000
Full-time second year (once you’ve learned the business): Well, lets just say you’ll be doing MUCH better this year than that first year ![]()
There is absolutely no reason every person on Earth shouldn’t do this at least as a hobby. Five hours of work a month can bring you in AT LEAST an extra $400 easily (I base that number on if you bought and sold 4-8 tickets that month – 2 Ebay listings). It’s so easy if you know what you’re doing!
The sad thing is, most people don’t know what they are doing at all. Want to know how I know? They are my competition on Ebay, and their listings are awful!
So here on my website, for absolutely no money, I am going to teach you a few things I wish I had known when I first jumped into this business.
One of the first things you need to learn is that PROPER RESEARCH IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS. People who buy tickets wildly or on whims are the ones who end up breaking even, or even losing money. If you do proper research before you go to buy tickets, you should know exactly what tickets you are willing to buy, and have a good idea of how much you will make on them.
Once you know what section seats you are ready to buy, its time to learn HOW TO PURCHASE CONCERT TICKETS LIKE THE PROS. Why is it that every major concert or sporting event sells out in ten minutes, and you are forced to pay more for these tickets on Ebay or Stubhub? It’s because professional ticket brokers have special techniques they use to get the best seats available! If you want to become a ticket broker, you have to be able to get the best tickets yourself.
Once you have the tickets, the next step is to learn HOW TO SET UP YOUR EBAY LISTINGS TO OPTIMIZE SALES. Two listings can be selling the exact same product for the exact same starting price, and one will sell for twice the starting amount while the other expires with no bids. Why does this happen? It’s usually just a few simple corrections to the listing, you just have to know what they are!
But its not just concert tickets that will make you money. You need to learn which tickets are THE BEST SPORTS TICKETS AND HOW TO GET THEM. This includes information on how to get NFL, MLS, NBA, and college sports tickets. If you can get tickets to some of the major games in these sports, you will be looking at some serious profits!
Once you make some sales and start gaining momentum from them, you can really start to leverage your business. At this point you will have to learn THE IMPORTANCE OF REPEAT CUSTOMERS. Getting a sale from someone you’ve sold to before is so easy, it boggles my mind why other sellers aren’t doing that! You need to learn to get loyal customers, and keep them coming back.
If you utilize the information on my website, you will definitely be ahead of 90% of the competition, but that is still just the tip of the iceberg. If you want to enter the 6 digit realm of income, you are going to have to really sharpen your techniques. Luckily in the ebook, you are shown how to do exactly that. Here are some more great things you can find in the ebook:
* How to Research your upcoming events so you don’t end up buying tickets that are duds. This includes how to buy tickets, when to buy tickets, and the types of tickets that you either want to always buy or always avoid.
* How to get involved in presales through AOL/AEG/LiveNation, Venue Presales, Credit Card Presales, Fan Club Presales, and more!
* Specific information on how to get your hands on Season Tickets, College Bowl Games, NCAA Final Four tickets, and Superbowl tickets. Trust me, these go for BIG money.
* Much more detailed information on how to set up your ticket listings on Ebay and Stubhub.
* Information on how to build your own website online – this will help your business tremendously, as well as become an introduction to other ways to make money online.
For more detailed information on how to become a professional ticket broker you can purchase the TICKET BROKER GUIDE. I did it about a year ago, and it was the best $45 bucks I ever spent.
Good luck, and please don’t hesitate to write if you have any questions.
