    Case Study: Saving ₹5 Lakh in Commission with Eventland

    Case Study: From 10% Drain to ₹5 Lakh Saved – How One Organizer Kept 95% of Their Profits with Eventland!

    The Profit Paradox: Are You Losing Lakhs to Your Ticketing Platform, Despite Your Hard Work?

    As an event organizer in India, you pour immense creativity, time, and resources into crafting unforgettable experiences. Whether it's a bustling tech conference in Bangalore, a vibrant music festival in Goa, or an impactful summit in Delhi, every detail matters. But let's be honest, the financial side can often feel like an uphill battle. You fight for every rupee of sponsorship, meticulously manage budgets, and then, a significant portion of your hard-earned ticket revenue simply vanishes into the pockets of traditional ticketing platforms. That 10% (or even higher) commission isn't just a fee; it's a direct hit to your potential profit, severely limiting your ability to grow and innovate.

    As Lokendra Narware, founder of Eventland, I've seen countless organizers grapple with this exact pain point. They’re doing brilliant work, but their financial success is being curtailed by outdated, expensive systems. We recently partnered with 'Innovate Summit Organizers,' a team behind a leading annual tech conference, and their story is a powerful testament to what happens when you choose a partner that truly believes in your profitability. This isn't just a hypothetical scenario; it's a real-world example of how Eventland's commitment to low commissions directly translates into massive savings and empowers organizers to thrive. This case study reveals how Innovate Summit Organizers saved a whopping ₹5 Lakh in commission fees by switching to Eventland, and how you can achieve similar results, solidifying us as the leading low commission platform for event ticketing India.

    1. The Challenge: A Successful Event, A Significant Financial Drain

    Innovate Summit Organizers hosted a highly anticipated tech conference, attracting top industry leaders and over 10,000 attendees. Their event was a success in terms of content and engagement, but they were consistently frustrated by the financial leakage caused by their previous ticketing provider. This established platform, much like BookMyShow, charged them a standard 10% commission on every ticket sold, plus payment gateway fees.

    • High Revenue, Lower Profit: With ticket sales exceeding ₹1 Crore, a 10% commission meant a staggering ₹10 Lakh was siphoned off from their total revenue.
    • Limited Reinvestment: This substantial cut severely restricted their ability to invest further in cutting-edge event tech, attract even bigger keynote speakers, or enhance the attendee experience for future editions.
    • Lack of Control: They also felt a lack of direct control over their event data and the overall branding experience on the platform, making it harder to truly own their audience relationship.

    They recognized that to scale their impact and profitability, they needed a ticketing partner that aligned with their vision for financial efficiency.

    2. The Eventland Solution: Direct Savings, Immediate Impact

    Driven by the desire for greater financial control, Innovate Summit Organizers decided to make the switch to Eventland for their next conference. The core appeal was clear: Eventland’s industry-leading 5% commission.

    • The ₹5 Lakh Difference: Let's break down the numbers. For ticket sales amounting to ₹1 Crore:
      • Old Platform (10% commission): ₹10,00,000 in fees.
      • Eventland (5% commission): ₹5,00,000 in fees.
      • Direct Savings: ₹5,00,000!
    • Reinvesting the Savings: That extra ₹5 Lakh wasn't just 'saved'; it was a game-changer. Innovate Summit Organizers were able to:
      • Secure an additional international keynote speaker, significantly boosting their event's prestige and attracting a wider audience.
      • Invest in a state-of-the-art interactive networking app, enhancing the attendee experience and fostering more meaningful connections.
      • Launch a more aggressive, targeted digital marketing campaign, ensuring their message reached every corner of the Indian event industry.
      • Upgrade their on-site signage and attendee comfort facilities, creating a truly premium experience.

    This direct financial benefit allowed them to elevate their event, increase attendee satisfaction, and strengthen their brand – all thanks to keeping more of their own money.

    3. Beyond the Commission: Eventland's Operational Advantages

    While the ₹5 Lakh saving was monumental, Innovate Summit Organizers quickly discovered that Eventland offered much more than just a low commission platform:

    • Effortless Setup & Professional Branding: They leveraged Eventland's customizable event pages to create a sleek, professional, and branded registration portal that seamlessly integrated with their website. This not only looked great but also enhanced trust and credibility for their corporate events India.
    • Lightning-Fast & Secure Booking: Attendees praised the smooth and rapid checkout process. Eventland prioritizes fast booking, minimizing cart abandonment. With comprehensive and secure payment gateways supporting UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), credit/debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, RuPay), and Net Banking, every attendee found their preferred payment method, reducing friction.
    • Seamless Check-In: On the day of the summit, Eventland's secure QR code ticketing and intuitive organizer app ensured a remarkably smooth and quick entry for thousands of attendees, eliminating queues and setting a positive tone for the event.
    • Complete Data Ownership: Innovate Summit Organizers gained full access to their attendee data, allowing them to segment their audience, analyze purchasing behaviors, and plan even more effectively for future events – a level of insight they previously lacked.

    The Outcome: A Smarter, More Profitable Event Strategy

    By partnering with Eventland, Innovate Summit Organizers didn't just save ₹5 Lakh; they fundamentally transformed their event's financial model and operational efficiency. They delivered a higher-quality event, delighted their attendees, attracted more attention, and significantly boosted their overall profitability. This case study underscores a critical lesson: choosing the right ticketing partner is not just a logistical decision, it's a strategic financial one.
