Need Tickets to the Paramount Theatre? Charity Dynamics has an App for That
AUSTIN, TEXAS, November 16, 2009 — Charity Dynamics, known for its strategic implementation of results-driven online programs for nonprofits, has broadened its capabilities and services available to organizations with the launch of the company’s first customized iPhone application. Developed specifically for The Paramount Theatre in Austin, Texas, the “Paramount Theatre Application” provides a new, more efficient way for the organization to stay connected with patrons while keeping them updated with the most current theatre news and offerings.
The Paramount Theatre is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has entertained Central Texas audiences for nearly 100 years. Charity Dynamics guides nonprofit organizations through strategy, implementation, training and effective management of integrated online programs that deliver extraordinary results.
“The Paramount has taken an important step that enables the theatre to stay on top of current technology trends while delivering greater value to its audience,” said Donna Wilkins, president of Charity Dynamics. “With their new iPhone application, the theatre is taking advantage of one of the fastest growing platforms for sharing content and now has the ability to keep supporters more connected and more informed by providing information on-the-go.”
Theatre Information at Your Fingertips
The Paramount Theatre Application is available for free to iPhone owners through the iTunes application store, and provides an easy way to get show updates and conduct other theatre-related actions from the convenience of their mobile devices. Through the application, users can view a listing Paramount shows for upcoming seasons; buy tickets; access special show offers; obtain a map and GPS-based directions to the theatre; register to become a member; make a donation; and even share the application with a friend.
Additionally, while the Paramount’s iPhone application provides a new communication channel for the theatre to utilize, online administrators can still manage all content from a centralized location. For example, a single show update made on the organization’s web content management system is instantly reflected across multiple communication channels, including the Paramount Theatre website, Facebook and, now, the theatre’s iPhone application.
“We make history every night at The Paramount, but we also understand the importance of staying up-to-date and connecting with today’s tech-savvy audience,” said Ken Stein, Executive Director, The Paramount Theatre. “Charity Dynamics provided the right strategy and online expertise we needed to make our iPhone application a reality, and now we’re even better positioned to provide supporters with the best theatre experience possible.”
Charity Dynamics will be providing demos of its Paramount Theatre iPhone application during the Convio Summit, November 16-18 in Austin, Texas.
