Why PR Teams Need XO: Simplify Operations and Strengthen Relationships
PR Teams Are Essential—But Undersupported
Promoters and PR teams are the frontline force behind nightlife success. You curate the vibe, fill the room, and drive direct revenue—but you’re often doing it without tools built for how you actually work.
XO changes that.
With features already live like request-based event table bookings—where you can accept, confirm, cancel, or declineeach guest—PR teams and venues gain real control over who gets in. Add to that the ability to collect deposits (partial or full minimum spend) upon booking or approval, and you’re no longer just managing guests—you’re locking in revenue upfront.
Whether you accept bookings automatically or screen them through requests, XO empowers you to control access & secure the bag before guests even show up.
The Real Challenges PR Teams Face
Targeted Outreach: You’re bringing in women for guest lists, high-value men for tables—all while juggling social, WhatsApp, and DMs.
Last-Minute Logistics: Updates to guest lists or table arrangements often cause chaos if not perfectly synced.
Lack of Visibility: Tracking who brought how many people or calculating commissions is still mostly manual.
These gaps create tension between PR teams and venues, reduce trust, and cost you money.
How XO Helps PR Teams Work Smarter
Request-Based VIP Bookings + Upfront Deposits
Guests can see the full amount they’ll need to pay before submitting a request
Once a request is accepted, guests have 24 hours to pay—either a partial deposit or full minimum spend, depending on how the booking is set up
If payment isn’t completed in time, the booking is forfeited
If you run a non-request-based setup, payment is required immediately upon booking
This isn’t just filtering. It’s protecting your revenue, locking in spend, and reducing no-shows.
