Reactivates 22-38% of VIP guests at-risk vs 1.4% on email-only. Runs dormant win-back, DJ-event broadcasts, birthday VIP, bottle service loyalty, and seasonal-event surge drips with dynamic VIP-tier feed.

Mailchimp event-night blasts open at 17%
Nightlife email open rate runs 14-20% - the Friday-peak window closes long before most VIP guests ever see the event-night drip
5,000+ dormant 60-90d guests, no win-back
Past one-time guests from a DJ event 60-180 days ago - sitting in SevenRooms / Resy / DICE doing nothing, no re-engagement on a channel that converts at the 22:00-02:00 window
NYE / Halloween / season opener = manual scramble
Every year the events team builds the surge sequence by hand, sends it on email, watches the open rate slide to 15%, and hopes the doorbuster lands
Corporate quarter-close cohort un-mined
Past corporate bookers (Q3 wrap-up, Q4 holiday party) churn fast - the events lead changes agency every 18 months, no quarter-close re-engagement flow
Trusted by businesses already using Seekadu
What a venue year looks like with marketing automation on the line.
The same Friday-peak cadence breaks, the same NYE / Halloween / season-opener surge, the same dormant 60d guest sitting in SevenRooms. The difference is what happens when a VIP regular hasn't booked for 5 Fridays and your Mailchimp drip waits 60 days to send the comeback.

Want this year-round lifecycle for your venue?
What your nightclub marketing automation actually knows.
Plug into SevenRooms, Resy, DICE, Eventbrite, RA Tickets, Tixr, Tock, Toast, or Square. Nightclub marketing automation reads VIP table events, bottle service spend per visit, DJ-event attendance, door cover, age-verification, occasion (birthday / corporate / bachelor) - segments by Friday-peak cadence, bottle service deciles, weekday-vs-weekend, season, dormant cohort - and triggers WhatsApp Business API, Instagram DM, Facebook Messenger, website widget, and Business Page flows. POS-to-CRM enrichment runs continuously. Honours transactional vs marketing message rules. Ties every send back to UTM + attributed VIP-table + bottle revenue. GDPR + safeguarding hard-coded.
Event-night drip cadence
5-10 days pre-event WhatsApp teaser to past-attendees by genre preference + group size + Friday-peak cadence. 3-day reminder, day-of doorbuster, 24h last-chance for surge events.
VIP segmentation rules
Friday-peak cadence bands (every Friday, every other Friday, monthly, seasonal), bottle service spend deciles, weekday vs weekend, anniversary-of-first-VIP cohort, dormant timestamp, original UTM source.
Seasonal event windows
NYE, Halloween, season-opener, summer-terrace peak, bank-holiday Fridays - pre-set 10-day → 3-day → day-of → 72h-post drip with VIP tier + bottle minimum + cover-charge + cancellation per event.
Bottle service loyalty
Table QR enrolment, per-visit bottle tier (Belvedere / Grey Goose / Don Julio / Veuve / Magnum), every-fifth-bottle comp, anniversary-of-first-VIP re-engagement, lifetime bottle spend per guest.
GDPR + safeguarding
Age-verification 18+/21+ flags hard-coded, no marketing under-18, intoxication safeguards (no last-orders push to flagged-intoxicated guest), last-orders cutoff respected, marketing opt-in + 24h customer-service window enforced.

Every event-night moment - triggered + attributed.
From a 73-day dormant VIP guest to an NYE-night doorbuster - nightclub marketing automation handles every lifecycle moment with full UTM attribution + SevenRooms VIP-record sync.
5,000 dormant VIP guests → segmented WhatsApp reactivation at 5-11% rebook.
Most nightclubs sit on 4,000-22,000 guests in SevenRooms, Resy, DICE, or Eventbrite who came once or twice for a DJ event and went dormant past the 60-90 day mark. The classic email comeback hits a 16% open rate and a 0.6% rebook. Nightclub marketing automation reads the VIP-table history, segments by last Friday-peak attendance + bottle service spend band + DJ-event preference + season + original UTM source, and sends tailored "miss your Friday VIP table? Book this week + complimentary bottle" WhatsApp touches per segment. Reactivation runs 5-11% - that's 250-2,400 dormant VIP customers back from a 5,000-cohort base.
- Scans SevenRooms / Resy / DICE / Eventbrite / Tixr guest table for 60-90d dormant cohort
- Segments by last Friday-peak VIP table, bottle service spend band, DJ-event preference, UTM source
- Tailored event-night re-engage WhatsApp + complimentary bottle touches per segment
- 5-11% reactivation rate vs 0.6% for email-only nightclub comeback flows
- Per-segment attribution: which dormant pool reactivates + bottle service revenue per send
