Designing ticket tiers that actually convert
Early bird, regular, VIP — tiering is more psychology than pricing. What we've learned from watching hundreds of on-sales.

A pricing page with one option asks a yes-or-no question. A pricing page with three options asks "which one?" — and that reframing alone lifts conversion.
Anchor high with a VIP tier even if few buy it: it makes your regular price feel reasonable. Keep tier names concrete — people should know exactly what they're getting without a comparison table.
And retire tiers publicly. A visible "Early Bird — Sold Out" row does more for urgency than any countdown timer.
