Louis Scherr, president and founder of the company, had a career as a concert performer and entertainer performing at top venues around the US, Europe and Asia for over 25 years. In addition to musical training Louis received formal training in software design, web-based technologies and database design. After building more than 200 websites for musicians, clubs and theaters, Louis had calls from venues that wanted ticketing systems integrated into their websites. After building a few ticketing applications for venues, Louis embarked on a Internet-based software system that would compare with the best in-house ticketing software packages available. When InstantSeats was launched in August 2003, in less than one year Instantseats acquired more than 50 accounts in the Washington DC area. Today, InstantSeats.com provides ticketing software and services to hundreds of venues around the US and Canada.
