2. After considerable thought, it was decided the idea was flawed due to the fact
that merchant accounts would not allow for third party transactions plus we
would have to adhere to all the different tax structures both city and state
throughout the country.
Hence, Local Ticket Sales evolved into its current model whereas all events both
free and non-free could list their venues or functions at a cost effective rate of
$15.00 per event and/or per week. Whereas, venues did not have a central site
to post their events they now have the opportunity to list and if tickets are part
of the event people could click right into their URL and purchase tickets from
anywhere in the country.
3. The business goals of LTS will come in stages.
Phase 1 of Local Ticket Sales is to do a test within the
Jacksonville, Florida area consisting of the following four counties:
Duval County – Population 879,602
Clay County – Population 194,345
St. Johns County – Population 202,188
Nassau County – Population 74,629

8. The purpose of Local Ticket Sales is to provide a wide variety of events, venues,
functions and just a general knowledge of what is happening in every community
throughout the country.
Folks now have the ability to access one website no matter where they are
worldwide instead of spending countless hours doing a search of events and
things to do. And unlike Print, Radio or TV, you can open up LTS, find what
you’re looking for and click right into that website to either buy tickets or get
pertinent information.
So whether you’re in your local community or traveling for business or pleasure
you can count on Local Tickets Sales as your on-line events magazine.

Because LTS is not limited to anyone one region or state, we are able to
embrace a wide variety of possibilities. For instance, users can use LTS as a
dating platform or vacation destination. Our product lends us to link with
other websites such as match.com or hotels.com. The convenience of linking
LTS to a compatible website would be instrumental in completing their
search.
LTS can be translated into any language. Simply put, no matter what the
language, LTS can accommodate websites from countries throughout the
world. For instance Local Ticket Sales in Spanish would translate to “Las
Ventas Locales” and from that website folks would be able to see all the
events in spanish.
10.
Local Ticket Sales took its name because we wanted something traditional
and easy to remember. We wanted a website that was mass marketable,
attracting all ages both male and female.
We believe Local Ticket Sales has that hometown feel and most everyone
would be comfortable using it.
Even though LTS isn’t just about tickets, we feel that using the name Local
and Tickets will give us a leg up on search engines when people type in key
words.
11.
The business location is headquartered in Jacksonville, Fl with satellite offices
throughout the country.
12.
Anyone can use the site because it will be available to all ages, however, users
must adhere to the rules and regulations of each individual website before
proceeding with their purchase if a ticket is involved.
LTS will not allow explicit and/or questionable material and we reserve the
right to delete such material.
13.
The pricing strategy is as follows:
$15.00 per event and/or per week to list on the left hand side of the site.
An additional $15.00 per event and/or per week to list in the center section.
This is considered the featured section because it allows for personalized
graphics.
14.
We will use both traditional and social media to advertise LTS.
Traditional will include Radio, Print and billboards.
Social Media will encompass Facebook, Twitter and any and all forms of legit
online opportunities.
15.
Although there are websites that target community functions, they are usually
fractured, confusing, incomplete or limited. No one has the in-dept, easy to
navigate website that is structured and categorized like LTS.
So whether you’re in the mood for Music, Sports, Theater, Community,
Military/Civic or Schools/Universities or Churches you can find it all on
LTS.
16.
The strength of LTS is our ability to showcase events throughout the country
to anyone throughout the world.
Anyone who wants to list their event or function on LTS can do so at a cost
of $15.00 per event and/or per week.
Unlike Print, Radio or TV there are no deadlines. Businesses can load up
their websites using their login information at anytime day or night.
LTS can offer text alerts to users who take advantage of our free membership
providing they provide us with their phone number and/or email. Whether
by iphone, ipad or desktop, LTS will be at the forefront of keeping up with
the local community.
17.
There are events and things to do that are questionable, therefore LTS will
maintain the right to decide what we allow to list.
Also, the site may have a tendency to become cluttered once businesses see
the benefit of listing their events on LTS.
