THE AUTHORITY FOR SPECIAL EVENTS

BUILT FOR GUESTS, NOT LEADS

This isn't a CRM with workarounds for events. It's a contact platform built from the ground up for event professionals.

 

Audience centralizes every profile and every data point, so your next event begins where your last one ended.

Guest-first

Profiles structured around event history and preferences, with custom fields, tags, and segments to capture the details that define a guest list. Not deal stages, not lead scores.

Large Icons-2

Designed for collaboration

Build, share, and update guest lists with internal teams, sponsors, and external partners in real time. Your master database stays protected, and your collaborators see only what you choose to share.

Enriched by every event

Every event you host deepens what you know about every guest. Attendance, engagement, and connections are automatically captured and ready to inform your next invitation.

HOW AUDIENCE WORKS

A single profile for every contact, built to capture the details that matter: bios, relationships, dietaries, contact information, and the notes that elevate each guest’s experience. See a complex, ever-evolving picture of every contact, and a 360° view of your Audience.
Create up to 100 custom fields in multiple formats and use color-coded tags to identify contacts at a glance. Map the nuanced data your organization relies on, from interests to membership tier to donor lifecycle stage, so the answers you need are only a click away.
Combine filters across any contact data, custom fields, and event activity. Save them as dynamic segments that update automatically as your Audience grows. Instantly find the patrons who attended last year's gala, or the prospects you haven't invited since 2022.

RESOLVE CONFLICTS WITH CONFIDENCE

When the same contact arrives from different sources with different details, Audience surfaces the conflict and hands you the controls. Choose exactly what stays and what goes, with no automatic overwrites.

Turn on Live Mode to create a live copy of any list and invite external collaborators by email. You choose which fields they can see and edit, and set a cap on how many contacts they can add. Your master data is never exposed.
Contributors verify by email and work within the parameters you've set, adding, editing, and removing contacts through a simple, secure interface. No more chasing sponsors and partners for the details you need.
Exit Live Mode to revoke external access and review every proposed change, addition, or removal, one by one or in bulk. Approve what belongs and dismiss the rest. Only then is your master Audience updated.

YOUR BEST-EVER GUEST LISTS START HERE

Drag and drop contacts, pull from saved segments, or merge existing lists into one. Track each list from draft to approved, then push straight to zkipster Events.

Works as one with zkipster Events

Audience connects natively with zkipster Events, so data flows automatically between your contacts and your events, with no manual exports. You define how the integration behaves: what syncs, when, and in which direction. More integrations with CRMs and other tools are on the way.

FAQs

A CRM is built for sales teams: to track leads, deals, and pipeline stages. Audience is an event CRM built for event professionals: to manage contacts, relationships, and the details that shape guest lists: preferences, tags, event history, and more. It captures the nuance a sales CRM was never designed to hold.

No, Audience can work alongside your existing systems. Some teams keep their organization's CRM for its core purpose and use Audience for the event-specific contact data, native integration with zkipster Events, and collaborative list building a CRM cannot handle.

Audience is built for events where the guest list matters: galas, premieres, fashion shows, VIP receptions, donor dinners, diplomatic functions, and sporting hospitality.

 

If who is in the room helps to determine whether your event succeeds, Audience is designed for you, whether you work in events, marketing, PR, operations, or development, manage guests as an EA or project manager, or plan events on behalf of clients at an agency.

zkipster is one connected platform. Data flows between Audience and Events: every event enriches your Audience contact profiles with new activity, and finished guest lists can be pushed straight into Events for communications, seating, and check-in. Your next event begins where your last one ended, and you control how the integration behaves.

Yes. Live Mode lets you share guest lists with sponsors, agents, and external partners, who can add and edit contacts in real time, without ever exposing your master data. You define what they can see, cap how many contacts they can add and how long they have to add them, and revoke access whenever you choose.

Your data is hosted in Swiss data centers, protected by 256-bit SSL and TLS 1.2 encryption, and managed to the ISO 27001:2022 standard. zkipster is GDPR compliant, and your data is always yours: never sold, never shared.

The Audience CRM for events is priced by the number of contacts you manage. Get in touch and we'll help you find the right tier for your team.
