One of the challenges in marketing a theatre production is that we’re usually on a limited run. As soon as you start to learn which message and tactics are really connecting with the right audience, it’s time to move on to the next show. ComedySportz is an improv comedy show that runs continuously year round, and I bring Chad and Claire on to talk about what’s the same and what’s different about how they promote their shows.  In this episode:  the best tactics to promote an ongoing show – is probably going to sound familiar what their audience looks like – marketing anything is going to start with understanding who you want to reach how they keep people coming back – the key is always having a way to get in touch with people again to stay in front of them is there fatigue over hearing how they’re unique – forget worrying about people getting tired of your marketing when you have a short run – imagine what it’s like when your show runs all year long what’s different promoting an all ages show from a “blue” show – sometimes the key is to respond to what your market wants  Items mentioned:  ComedySportz Indianapolis – the Indianapolis chapter of the International competitive improv comedy organization  Let Claire and Chad know if you liked this session If you have a few seconds, you can let these guys (and me) know that you liked this session by telling them on Twitter.
