Tags allow you to automatically tag (i.e. big spender, frequent donor) or manually tag (seat preference E4) a customer based on criteria you select. If auto-assigning based on criteria, as soon as the customer falls within the criteria of the tag, they will be assigned the tag in their customer account and be available for reporting analysis.
The above image shows tags as they appear in customer records as assigned or expired/history. If a tag is deleted or expires, it will be tracked in the system.
The system therefore allows you to tag or segment your customer database and analyse the data using reports with Marketing Tags based on a number of options including sales value or range, zip/postal cods, events/activities/products purchased as well as many more tags. You also have the option of creating ticket types that are restricted to marketing tags i.e. a VIP ticket type is restricted to a customer that has met the criteria of a VIP tag by spending more than $1000 in the year.
Other features include the ability to automate an alert to any user, role or email address to inform of a customer being allocated a tag. Customise the email message i.e. John Smith has spent over 10,000 and is now a VIP customer, please call and thank him for his continued support. You are also able to customise the message sent to the customer i.e. Thanks John Smith, you are now a recognised platinum customer. You are now able to log into your account online to access a 10% discount of selected events/activities and products.
An example tag that can be created is if a customer from Zip/Postal Code 2000-2005 or 2010-2020 spends between $1000-$2000 in the current financial year on comedy shows only, they are tagged. Extend this by offering a deal and discount such as 20% off or no transaction, per ticket or delivery fees.
