🚀 How EASY will it be to solicit sponsors when you tell them exactly how many people see and engage ads in your program?

📝 "Taking attendance is so much fun!" said no one ever. But at least now it's less tedious.

How Cast98 evolved to a do-it-all platform...

A director friend was ranting to me at a cast party that the software they paid for to make rehearsal scheduling easy actually made it harder. I started Cast98 months after that with the goal of doing the job correctly...

✒️ Define cast rules/contract terms once and they'll be included in every role offer.

🤔How many storage bins/closets/rooms/units does your theatre have? Maybe time to track inventory so you don't spend hours searching...

The biggest reasons NOT to use a digital playbill:

1. Parents 💓 keepsakes
2. Glowing screens during a show
2. Sponsors hate em

The best solution is a hybrid: Print a one-pager w/ cast list, scenes, and a QR code to your full program on Cast98!

Okay, silence on social media means a little more than just “spending time with family”. It also means I’ve checked the analytics and seen that only a dozen or so folks see each post, so what’s really the point? There are lots of updates, but I’ve started putting them into the monthly newsletter.

Silence on social media only means I've been spending more time with my kids and less time doing "admin". A plethora of posts about recent upgrades are coming...
