02 · Attendee profile
More than a name on a list.
Attendee fills the profile once: dietary, accessibility, sessions of interest, sponsor opt-in. The event runs on it; the next event starts with it.

Survey, attribution, retention.

Sample engagement
The training provider that ditched Eventbrite and found 18% margin.
12 events a year. 200 attendees each. Three platforms.
A UK training provider used Eventbrite, Mailchimp, and a CRM that didn't talk to either. Platform fees ate 18% of ticket revenue. We shipped a custom event app on Stripe, with email comms and CRM-sync built in. Six months in: platform-fee saving funded the build twice over, year-on-year retention up from 34% to 51%, sponsor retention 100%.
How we measure: Platform fees measured against Eventbrite invoices (n = 4 events post-build), retention measured as % of last-year attendees who registered for next year, sponsor retention measured as % of sponsors renewing for the next event.
