Core CRO Principles Applied
Single primary CTA visible above fold at all times
Urgency signals: live ticket counter + date countdown
Press logos (Business Insider, Food & Wine) as trust anchors
Social proof near every purchase decision point
VIP upsell path introduced after general ticket CTA
Zero broken links — every nav item resolves to real content
Section 1 — Hero / Above the Fold
Primary CTA Above Fold
Current site has no buy button in the hero. New design puts 'Get Tickets from $12' front and center.
Dual Logo Removed
Logo appears once in the sticky nav only — not repeated as a large hero graphic.
Urgency Counter
Live 'X tickets sold this week' counter creates FOMO and drives immediate action.

Nashville Scene
Key changes from current site: (1) Single logo in nav only — not duplicated in hero. (2) "Get Tickets from $12" CTA is the first interactive element a visitor sees. (3) Press logos use actual publication names as styled badges (replace with real logos when available). (4) Live ticket counter adds urgency without false scarcity. (5) Star rating anchors social proof directly under the primary CTA.
Section 3 — Ticket Tiers
3-Tier Pricing
General → Premium → VIP. Middle tier anchors perceived value and nudges upgrades.
Recommended Badge
'Most Popular' on the middle tier increases selection by 20–30% in A/B tests.
Working CTAs
Every 'Buy Tickets' button links to the real ticketing platform — no more Coming Soon dead-ends.
