Friends Don’t Let Friends Host Events on Eventbrite

Event Espresso vs. Eventbrite. The Truth Will Set You Free from Eventbrite fees!

Eventbrite fees and charges are out of control, or they have too much control! Event Espresso beats Eventbrite by keeping you in full control of your money because you get paid directly and instantly, customer data stays with you, style and company branding is in your control.

Friends don't let friends host events on Eventbrite

No Post-event Payouts with Event Espresso

Are you selling tickets to your next event? Are you willing to give away 3.5% of your ticket value + $1.59 in Eventbrite fees for every ticket sold? Eventbrite pricing means that you have to fork over a percentage of every ticket you sell when you use their ticketing service. With Event Espresso you are in control of your money because your events are hosted on your website. That means no monthly fees, no registration fees, or ticketing commission fees. And because with Event Espresso you use your own merchant account (e.g. Stripe or PayPal) so you get paid instantly. (more…)

Developers wanted!

Are you a WordPress theme or plugin developer? Have you worked with WordPress or Event Espresso enough that you feel comfortable making customizations for clients? Do you want more clients?

If the answer to those questions was “Yes”, we want to hear from you! We’re looking to partner with experienced WordPress developers who are familiar with Event Espresso that want new clients. We get a lot of requests for customization projects that we just aren’t able to work on due to our regular plugin development workload.

Think you fit the bill? Let us know what you specialize in, what your average rates are, and give us an example site that you’ve worked on (preferably a site that’s running Event Espresso). We’ll be adding developers to a Third Party Developers page where we will refer our customers who are requesting custom development projects that we are unable to take on within their timeline. Fill out our Third Party Developer application to get listed in our directory.

Event Espresso Jobs

Event Espresso Jobs

Event Espresso Jobs

Our mission is to empower business and organization leaders with the event registration, ticketing and management tools that maximize the success of events. Although we are uniquely qualified to offer customization services to all our clients, with limited resources, we can’t do everything for everyone. This is where Event Espresso Jobs comes in.

Event Espresso Jobs is about bringing a community of developers, designers and clients together for these types of jobs & projects, when we aren’t available to help directly:

  • Event Espresso Modifications – Modifying the Event Espresso software to meet a very particular event registration need.
  • WordPress Projects – Modifications of existing, or creation of new,  WordPress themes or plugins on a freelance basis.
  • WordPress Jobs – Post your jobs – full-time or part-time, working remotely or working in your offices – for designers and developers to join your growing business.

Our goal is to help you be as successful as you can be, so we hope you find this resource helpful.

PS ~ Sometimes we need your help; we’re looking to work with the most talented WordPress programmers and designers, so if you’re one of them, please apply.
