It's probably just me, but it took me so long after visiting the site to figure out what they actually DO. Wording like, "BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER TO Share Your Passion" and "IT STARTS WITH AN IDEA" is vague and gives me no idea of what the product or service was.

I saw something about selfie tickets but had no idea what that meant. Do you take a selfie on your phone and then it's part of an e-ticket? Do they print tickets with your face on it? Is there a web backend? What does the mobile app do, specifically? I feel like there's not enough to-the-point descriptive copy.

I navigated back to the homepage and kind of got a better idea of what was going on:

"Create an event page and start selling tickets in minutes."

Okay, makes sense.

"Run event-day like a pro with a full mobile box office"

What's a mobile box office? Is it an app that lets me scan tickets with QR codes? Is there communication between mobile devices to validate tickets using NFC or something?

Please take this as constructive criticism. Good luck with your product! :)

The intro video is equally useless and you have to watch 3/4 of the video before they even mention what its doing. The first 45 seconds of the minute long video is all "we think people are nice, look at all these random smiling people, blablabla".

The front page and the intro video make it sound like it's yet another photo sharing app for taking selfies.

Very constructive, thanks!
