SUCCESS STORY
Make membership easy
At Houston Museum of Natural Science, rewarding loyalty used to be challenging. Because data was stored in multiple systems, box office cashiers struggled to upsell casual visitors on membership options. They couldn’t easily renew existing members. And no one could immediately take advantage of their program benefits.
In Tessitura, all transactional data is available in real time, in one place — whether purchases occur at the box office or online. Membership benefits, such as free admission or discounts on ticketed exhibitions, can be used right away.
