Venue information is extremely important. The wrong information on the address may send you and your crew across town. Incorrect contact information can mean minutes of valuable time lost to you and your organization. Entering your information in Master Tour will help you keep your information in one location for your organization to access.
In order to add your venue information, you will need to create a new venue in the directory, or you will need to add a previously created venue to a date. Entering the information is straightforward; enter the details as you would with a contact. There are a few fields that need to be covered to help you enter and view the information properly. Let us start with the Lat/Long fields.
The Lat/Long fields were added to allow you to enter geo-coordinates if necessary. This may be required if you enter the address information and the point does not show up properly on the map. Geo-coordinates may also come in useful when entering venue information at a large area, such as a college campus. While the address may be correct, knowing exactly where to go may help save you time from having to search around for the exact location to arrive at.
The fields located next to the venue address are the venue phone numbers. Please understand that space is intended for venue phones numbers specifically. If you need to enter any additional information such as promoter contacts, production contacts, or other useful information, please do so in the proper places or you may not see the information displayed properly. This becomes extremely important when working with other organizations. Having this set as a standard will help both your organization and another stay on the same page.
