AI-Suggested Customer-Exclusive Events
Pinpoint the right members, moments, and formats for exclusive events that strengthen loyalty—lifting participation while cutting planning time by 86%.
Executive Summary
Using platforms like Comarch Loyalty Platform, Yotpo, and LoyaltyLion, AI analyzes member behavior, tier status, and past responses to recommend high-fit, customer-exclusive events. The result: targeted invitations, fuller rooms (or webinars), and measurable lifts in engagement and retention with a fraction of the manual effort.
What Does Event Opportunity Discovery Do?
Signals include purchase recency, category affinity, tier momentum, referral activity, NPS, location clustering, and prior event attendance. Recommendations include audience lists, invite windows, capacity targets, and incentive structures.
