Big Apple Circus Selects AudienceView for CRM: Ticketing, Fundraising and Audience Relations
NEW YORK & TORONTO--The Big Apple Circus, www.bigapplecircus.org, is pleased to announce that it has chosen AudienceView for all ticketing, customer relations management (CRM), and fundraising efforts. For the Big Apple Circus, AudienceView provides an integrated solution that greatly enhances our ability to provide our audiences and membership the best quality and value for their circus experience and participation. With more than 350 annual performances in ten venues, and 5,000 donors contributing to the not-for-profit circus's community programs and artistic excellence, the Big Apple Circus wanted to customize and manage directly the means of ticket–buying and donating in order to meet our own and our audiences' and donors' highest expectations.
"Over the past 30 years the Big Apple Circus has steadily grown: in the number of venues played, the performances presented, in audience attendance and in community programs offered," said Gary Dunning, Executive Director, Big Apple Circus. "Throughout that steady growth, our priority remains a great customer experience - certainly in the Big Top and in our community programs, but also as a ticket buyer and as a donor. We wanted an integrated ticketing and fundraising system that would help us to continue to provide that high-quality customer experience. After reviewing several companies we concluded that AudienceView offered the most comprehensive package of ticketing, CRM and donor service for our needs. The outstanding reputation in the industry of its leadership coupled with the excellent and user-friendly system gave us the confidence to enter into what I am certain will be a long term, and highly effective relationship."
"One of AudienceView's biggest strengths is our ability to recognize the diverse needs of clients like the Big Apple Circus and provide them with the best services and solutions to meet those needs," said Kevin Kimsa, AudienceView President & Chief Operating Officer. "We're fully committed to working in partnership with the Big Apple Circus to strengthen their ticketing operations and streamline their overall business practices."
