If you're a teacher selling classes
Eventbrite is a popular option for taking bookings; since they are very well known, business owners often try Eventbrite as their first solution before they discover other platforms that are better suited to their specific needs.
For teachers offering fun classes or workshops, ClassBento is usually a better choice. Eventbrite is a very 'one size fits all' solution that tries to cater to every type of ticketing experience, from concert tickets to conferences and festivals; however this means that they can't specialise in any particular area or offer strong support. ClassBento specialises in only classes and workshops, and hence has many features that Eventbrite lacks, that can help teachers and experience providers capture a lot more bookings and to save them a lot of time.
Some ClassBento benefits include:
- We invest into paid marketing for your classes, Eventbrite typically doesn't
- We get lots of traffic from our organic channels, who will see your classes - e.g. we dominate Google rankings for art/craft terms, much more so than Eventbrite
- We provide personalised help via our local Aussie support team, much better than what Eventbrite offers
- Our user experience is fully optimised for workshops so your customers will get a better experience than with Eventbrite; same goes for you with admin bookings management
- We'll automatically capture lots of reviews and ratings for you automatically, and display them on your class pages; this can get you a lot more students
- Get paid immediately after each class is held - Eventbrite's payout schedule involves longer delays
- Easily attract and capture group bookings - corporates, birthdays, hens, and other celebrations and events
- Your classes are amazing and deserve to be shown to their full potential, not to appear just like yet another conference or generic event on Eventbrite. Make your classes shine on ClassBento with multiple high-res images, video, social feeds, included expert copywriting, and more
ClassBento specialises only in listing high-quality classes, experiences and kits, and we love supporting the talented local artisans in our communities.
