Stop gambling on event sales

Most organisers rely on boosted posts, last-minute ads, and guesswork. Some events sell out. Others don’t. We take a different approach. We’ve spent 19 years building and testing what actually sells tickets, and turned it into a system that works.

Your success is our success

For more than 20 years we’ve worked with venues, festivals and artists through Fatsoma, helping drive more than 50 million ticket sales. We understand how different audiences buy tickets, from students and club crowds to festival-goers, immersive experiences and live entertainment. We know the sales patterns, behaviours and moments that drive demand because we’ve spent decades inside the live events industry.

Fatsoma has been inside this industry since 2006. We've worked with over 45,000 organisers.

We've seen what works and what doesn't, so every strategy is built on real insight, not assumptions.

Got questions?

We have the answers

Will this work for my type of event?

Yes. We've worked across nightlife, student events, festivals, ticketed experiences, live music and venues. The system adapts to your audience, because it's built on buyer behaviour, not event type.

Can I use any ticketing platform?

Yes. Fatsoma does make the system more powerful, especially for retargeting and building owned audiences, but it’s not a requirement to get started.

How much should I be spending on ads?

£1,500/month is the practical minimum for the system to generate enough data to work properly. Most of our clients spend £1,500–£5,000/month depending on event frequency and ticket price. That spend becomes more efficient with every event you run.

What if I've tried paid ads before and it didn't work?

Most organisers have. Usually because they used generic ecommerce strategies on an event audience. SOMA is built specifically for ticket sales. The targeting, creative, funnel and retargeting approach is completely different to what you've probably tried.

How long until I see results?

Most clients see meaningful improvement within their first two or three campaigns. Full compounding performance (where each event is measurably cheaper to sell out than the last) typically develops over 60–90 days.

Why charge a flat fee and not a percentage of ad spend?

Because percentage models create the wrong incentives. An agency on a percentage deal earns more when you spend more, whether or not it's working. Our flat fee means our only incentive is your results. We win when you sell more tickets. That's the only alignment that makes sense.

What's the minimum commitment?

Three months. That's what the system needs to build proper data, refine audiences and start compounding. Most clients stay well beyond that, because the results keep improving.

Turn every launch into your strongest yet.
