After each event our board and staff debriefed about the event and marketing at our board meeting. We continued to shift our strategies for communication and how art is incorporated into our events and communication with this feedback. We received a few survey responses after each event from attendees which were reviewed at our debrief. We have seen an increase in our reach and revenue (14% increase in audience, 1,252% increase in event revenue, and 80 new event attendees). We did not create a new logo but have created a marketing and work flow schedule that will help us be more efficient in our communications. We will use this schedule to build our marketing and development campaigns over the next fiscal year. 33% of event attendees were brand new to TQH. Instagram reach increased 60%. Total reach across FB and Insta increased 8.4%. Email open rates increased by 49.2% compared to previous (from 25% to 37%). overall ticket revenue more than doubled - increased by 186%.
