After an eventful (but event-less) few years, fans can now rejoice!
It’s time to get back out there.
Festivals, gigs, concerts… you name it, they’re back, and better than ever.
But with so many choices, how do you make sure your event stands out from the crowd? How do you connect with fans?
How do you give them what they want - and keep their loyalty along the way?
With three little letters – CRM.
CRMs are systems (often a software or technology) that can manage your data records - and the interactions of your customers.
They’re intelligent - and can have an amazing impact on your bottom line as a festival, concert promoter or venue!
A good CRM will collect, organize, and manage all your fan and ticket sales information - all in one place.
You can collate data including:
And with info like that, you can unlock insights about your fans and deliver targeted marketing to boost ticket sales and grow revenue.
What’s not to love about that?
It’s not gold, and it doesn’t glitter, but your data is one of your most valuable resources!
A CRM can help you optimize your data, giving you:
Consolidate all your event and ticketing information in one place — including data from your ticket sales, email subscribers & registrations from Audience Republic campaigns - then put it to good use and sell more tickets 💰
Some CRMs can even integrate with your marketing tools - like email and SMS platforms. Connecting with your comms allows you to create a meaningful customer experience and engage with even more impact.
For example:
If Billy (the big fan) bought a ticket last year for the Best Band Ever - your CRM will know about it.
So, when Best Band Ever announces a new tour, guess who’ll be the first to buy a ticket?
Your mate Billy (the big fan) - because you sent him a personalized text!
Not only are you more likely to get a sale - but he’ll be grateful he didn’t miss out (and maybe a tiny bit pleased you remembered him!).💕
Don’t have time to get to know your fans?
Use your CRM superpowers to unlock powerful insights.
With an event CRM you can identify:
💰 Top spenders,
😍 Devoted attendees,
📈 Key demographics,
⭐️ and the most popular artists your fans are listening to
Then you can use these insights to personalize your customers’ experience - and sell more tickets!
Not managing your data correctly can cost you in the long run.
Maybe you’ve already got a CRM.
But is it the one for you?
