The way hospitality venues book music has been done manually for far too long. Venues and artists alike suffer from a lack of choice, a fragmented ecosystem and (some) intermediaries taking a ridiculously high skim!
End customers are 78% more likely to visit a venue with music on, 76% more likely to buy more drinks and 73% more likely to stay longer. The business case for live music is therefore clear!
The biggest challenge for venues putting on live music is access to talent and a time efficient platform that supports automation of communication, billing, accounting and marketing. GigPig are here to solve this problem!
