## Theater marketing from the program to next season.

1. **Codes where people sit.** Put a tracking link and QR code in the program, the lobby and your emails.
2. **Feedback without friction.** Ask a few questions after the show. Surveys stay anonymous unless someone adds an email.
3. **Permission, kept separate.** Ask for season news with its own unchecked consent box.
4. **Seats handed off by your team.** Draw a winner and alternates, send a claim form, and hold the tickets at the box office.

Revup doesn’t connect to ticketing or box office systems.

## Know your audience. Beyond the box office.

Bring giveaway entries, post-show answers and season sign-ups together in one profile. See who keeps coming back. Use what audiences share to plan your next season and your next appeal.

## Common questions


### How can theaters use ticket giveaways in their marketing?

Give away seats to an upcoming show, put the QR code in programs, emails and lobby signs, and ask entrants whether they want season news. Your box office holds the seats for the winner.

### Does Revup connect to our ticketing system?

No. Revup doesn’t connect to ticketing or box office systems. Winners claim their prize through a claim form, and your box office holds the seats.

### Can audiences answer a survey anonymously?

Yes. Surveys are anonymous by default. Add an optional email field if you want a way to follow up, and ask for marketing permission separately.

### Can we put a QR code in the program?

Yes. Every promotion has a QR code, and each tracking link has its own, so you can compare the program, the lobby and your emails.

### Can Revup help with rules and winner selection?

Yes. Generate official rules, set entry restrictions, and select winners with a recorded draw. Use winner claim forms to collect the details you need to arrange prizes. Review your eligibility, prize details, and rules before launch.

The free 7-day trial lets you explore Revup and its integrations, create unlimited promotions, and collect unlimited participants. You can access data for the first 20 entrants. SMS sending is not available during the trial. No payment method is required, and you won’t be charged automatically.
