Think most covered it ... simply win and over time it'll rise.

One related tip... Always charge a veritable #2-ton for season tickets -- a price you know you'll never reach during the season. It won't impact attendance. you'll still reach teh same numbers as your fan interest/loyalty/record dictate, but you can significantly improve your average ticket price for any winning team. you still get fullhouses and you slowly increase prices over the year and maintain those full capacity sellouts or 97% etc.

I have no idea if 95% is more profitable than 99% but that's splitting hairs at that point.

I always set my season ticket prices higher than any price i've been able to set for a playoff or WS ticket price. If you win a couple in a row or more, you can go higher than the first WS.

you can always test out ticket price. set it, play game, but don't enter it. The initial screen is not in-game but shows attendance numbers on bottom left or right or screen unless UI changed... quit game before it even starts. adjust and repeat to figure out highest price for best attendance -- there's some variation in exact attendance numbers but you can quickly recognize the tiered results.

you can learn this slowly over time too or learn it much faster with this method. it's something you can learn without the 'hack'. the point at which you can increase prices during the season and still get full attendance doesn't require the hack either, but you will be 1 game delayed. All of a sudden that ticket value will cause a slightly different result - must be able to recognize the tiered values of attendance. All of a sudden you may drop a tier and that usually means you can charge a bit more (assuming you keep winning at same or higher percentage)

In the playoffs you know each step you can charge a little more.. Consecutive years of playoffs can rise even further than what you were able to charge the first year.

these seem like small things, but you can increase your gate revenue for the year significantly if you learn and react to maximize ticket price throughout season and playoffs.

Would you like to afford another superstar or maybe 2-3 everyday ML-quality players on your roster? I bet that's the minimum boost to revenue with consistently high-end teams. Not so important during lean years if you have a small market size. Large markets should never have lean years.

I never bother to try to calcualte 'optimal' .. gonna need some calculus because there's 2 independent variables at play. I've always priced it based on resulting percentage of total atendance. It's been so long i don't recall my rough trial and error maximized value.. 15-25%?

If you charge doubel and you only get 10% from season tickets, that's still a 20% increase in average ticket price. You'll make extra money even while you test out what values maximize the effect. When you have a stretch of years with consistent success, you'll learn quickly through trial and error.

Oh, i don't share gate revenue.. may need to adjust the revenue benefit estimate a bit if you do.. slightly lower. I'd still wager money you could add 1 more superstar salary by doing this, all other factors the same.
