The Tessitura Network Inc., the leading global provider of enterprise software technology, services and learning community for the arts and cultural sector, is pleased to announce that Royal New Zealand Ballet is a new Member of the Tessitura Network.
Royal New Zealand Ballet joins more than 390 arts, cultural and entertainment organizations worldwide that rely on Tessitura Software® to better serve their patrons, donors and communities. Tessitura provides a unified platform for all departments within an organization to manage customer relationships, ticketing, marketing, subscriptions, fundraising, memberships, reporting and Web transactions. According to Jack Rubin, President of Tessitura Network, “Tessitura boosts operating efficiencies and fosters the ability to improve customer service levels as well as to increase revenues. Most other systems rely on a patchwork of solutions that are not fully integrated and do not truly deliver CRM. Tessitura is a single comprehensive solution that is equally effective at powering transactions from all channels, and delivering robust capabilities across all functional areas.”
The Royal New Zealand Ballet is a company of 32 dynamic dancers, performing an eclectic repertoire of outstanding dance, for national and international audiences, whilst continuing to build a style that is ultimately unique to this Company and Aotearoa, New Zealand. Amanda Skoog, Managing Director of the Ballet, notes: “We rely on individual ticket sales and donations for over 60% of our income annually. We realized that to sustain and build our earned income we needed a system that enables us to communicate on a regular and personal basis with all our stakeholders. Tessitura was the outstanding product available to us and we are delighted to be working with the Tessitura Network on this new venture.”
