Three festivals. Three different formats. Three numbers that mattered to the budget.
"We modeled the fee on a 10,000-ticket weekend pass run. MTU put $63,000 back into production. We added a second stage with that money. Done."
"We hybrid-scanned QR at the gate, then handed out RFID wristbands for camping and bar top-up. MTU's API talked to our wristband vendor with no engineering loop. Sold."
"Three days of revenue hitting Stripe in real time. We paid food trucks, the AV team, and the cleaning crew before the festival was even over. That changes how you produce."
