When you think of superclubs, you probably think of Amnesia. For five decades this Ibiza institution has set the beat for the island’s party scene and the global clubbing landscape as a whole – a mainstay on lists of the World’s Best Clubs and a bucket-list destination for clubbers the world over. Amnesia has always been a place of innovative thinking. Today, the club is a globally-recognised brand, having long ago embraced the possibilities of social media. Its ticketing is also ahead of the curve. Working with CM.com, Amnesia have developed an integrated, highly sophisticated solution that allows them to sell tickets, connect with fans all year round and retain ownership of their data through one platform. Where does this spirit of innovation come from? The answer lies in Amnesia’s history. It has got there by always moving forward. By seeking out new sounds and promoters, and by refining the in-club experience season after season. More recently, it has got there through investing in digital and working with CM.com to evolve its ticketing and fan engagement. Here, we take you inside Amnesia to understand how this family-run business became a global brand. From its counter-cultural roots through to its digital transformation over the last few years.

As an eCommerce player, you should always be looking to avoid this by diversifying and personalising your marketing strategy in a way that suits your customers' needs.
