siliconindia | | June 20184With the whole world going digital, selling of tickets online ­ a trending business strategy has begun to change dramatically with emerging online marketplaces. The rise in number of smart phone users and more and more consumers preferring to book tickets through mobile or online mode, online ticket booking companies are now being quite optimistic about the growth prospects. With the growth of e-commerce, digital methods of payment, built-in fingerprint scanners, and QR codes, users are able to safely purchase tickets ­ (be it movie, air/train/bus or any event) in a couple of taps. Both resellers and customers greatly benefit from the development of the industry. From paper tickets and at-home printing, selling tickets online has turned into a digitalized mobile experience. Perhaps the most notable in amongst the changes, however, has been the way in which customers approach businesses to book. Gone are the days in which staff members sat eagerly awaiting calls with a calendar by their side -these are now replaced with online booking systems which take the hassle out of booking for customers and businesses. In fact, rather than being constrained by working hours and telephone capacity, a business can take countless simultaneous bookings at any moment, eliminating the friction that alternative booking systems introduce. The impact an online booking platform can have on a business can be explained through the boosting sales and greatly simplifying the booking procedure for both customers and staff.Understanding how businesses can achieve greater sales & marketing synergy through the concept of online booking, we have featured a list of "20 Most Promising Online Ticket Booking Companies" in our current edition. With a modern approach to booking tickets, these companies are making the most out of the tremendous opportunity the internet offers businesses.
