Make money selling concert tickets!

Have you ever wanted to make extra cash on the side selling tickets to sporting events and concerts? Have you ever wanted to make tons of cash selling tickets? This is how I do it! Short simple and to the point.


Research. First thing you want to do is research some popular events that are coming to your area. People are only going to spend good money on popular bands and or sporting events. Some of us may like to watch William hung sing his heart out but for the most part you are not going to make any money selling tickets to his next show. On the other hand bands like U2, Rolling stones and major sporting events like playoffs sell out almost every show. This is where you want to look.


Once you have made a list of popular events next thing you want to do is go to ticket master and see what's available. Ideally you want to purchase tickets just as they go on sale so you can get the best of the best. Your best bet is to buy tickets that are close to the front. The closer you get the more money you can make. Me personally, I never buy tickets higher than the first main section. You can buy wherever you want however, they may not sell until the last minute or not at all. Also make sure to buy at least 2 tickets. Nobody goes to an event alone.


Go to Stub hub and list your tickets. Check to see if tickets similar to yours are selling and if they are then how much they are selling for. Price accordingly. I'm usually able to double my investment on high demand tickets. This is where all your research comes into play.

Make sure to check your local laws on re-selling tickets.
