{"faqs":[{"answer":"We review list source and consent records before any campaign launches, checking for proper permission documentation. Bought lists without clear consent records are flagged and typically declined—we tell you upfront if your list won't support a compliant campaign.","question":"How does My AI Call Center ensure we're only contacting members who have given permission for re-engagement calls?"},{"answer":"The AI assistant confirms their interest, qualifies their readiness to return, and routes the follow-up request directly into your CRM or scheduling system for your team to act on—such as booking tickets or updating loyalty status.","question":"What happens when a lapsed member expresses interest in returning during an AI call?"},{"answer":"Yes, AI-generated voices are treated as artificial voices under the TCPA, requiring prior express consent. We provide AI disclosure on every call, honor state-specific quiet hours, and respect opt-outs immediately—recipients can request a human or opt out at any time.","question":"Are AI-generated voices used in these calls compliant with telemarketing regulations for movie theaters?"},{"answer":"After campaign goal definition, list review, system connection, and script approval—which is completed before launch—we can begin calling in your approved windows. The first campaign review is free, and the full cost is known before you approve launch.","question":"How quickly can we launch a lapsed member re-engagement campaign after approval?"},{"answer":"Our model starts at 9¢ per connected minute with no per-seat charges, platform bills, or minimums you didn't choose. You pay only for the campaigns we run for you—avoiding HR costs, training, and infrastructure of an internal call center.","question":"How does your pricing compare to maintaining an in-house team for member re-engagement calls?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Define Your Re-Engagement Goal","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Start with a clear outcome: 'Re-engage lapsed members to drive theater visits.' We scope the campaign and quote the full cost before launch."},{"step":"2","title":"Review and Approve Your Member List","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"We examine your list source, consent records, and calling windows—ensuring only permissioned contacts are included and nothing launches without your script and escalation approval."},{"step":"3","title":"Launch and Track Results","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Calls run in approved windows with real-time monitoring. Outcomes are dispositioned and routed back to your CRM, with completion reports and opt-out logs delivered post-campaign."}],"ctaText":"Plan My Campaign","eyebrow":"Lapsed Member Calls","benefits":[{"icon":"Target","title":"Compliant List Usage","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Before any re-engagement campaign launches, we review your member list source and consent records — checking calling windows, opt-out history, and permission status. Bought lists without clear permission records are flagged and, in most cases, declined. For movie theaters juggling loyalty sign-ups, online ticketing data, and event cinema mailing lists, that means every call goes to a patron who actually agreed to hear from you.","proof_point":"Domestic admissions sit at roughly 780 million annually, down nearly from 2019 — so every compliant touch on a lapsed member matters more than ever."},{"icon":"Phone","title":"Predictable Per-Minute Pricing","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Calling starts at 9¢ per connected minute, tiered by volume, with the rate locked before launch and no mid-campaign changes. Most campaigns add a one-time campaign setup and a flat monthly management fee, both quoted before launch. No per-seat charges, no platform bill, no minimums you didn't choose. For a theater operator budgeting across multiple locations and seasonal release calendars, you know the full campaign cost — setup, management fee, and calling minutes — before you approve anything.","proof_point":"National average ticket prices have climbed from about $9.16 in 2019 to north of $11 — recovering even a small share of lapsed members quickly covers campaign costs."},{"icon":"CheckCircle","title":"Measurable Campaign Outcomes","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Every campaign ends with a named outcome report: dispositioned contact lists with counts for confirmed, renewed, opted out, and no answer; per-call notes; routed follow-ups straight into your box office CRM; and complete opt-out and DNC logs. We report what actually happened — no invented metrics. Your marketing team sees exactly which lapsed members committed to returning for the next tentpole release and which follow-ups your staff should prioritize.","proof_point":"With attendance at just 64% of pre-pandemic levels, measurable re-engagement outcomes — not guesswork — determine whether dormant members return."}],"features":["List and consent review before any campaign launches to ensure TCPA compliance and respect for member preferences","Structured AI-powered calling campaigns with one clear goal per campaign, quoted and approved before launch","Outcomes are dispositioned and routed back to your CRM or scheduling tools for seamless team action","Calling starts at 9¢ per connected minute with rate locked before launch, plus one-time setup and flat monthly management fee—no per-seat charges or unexpected minimums","Keyword opt-out handling (STOP, REVOKE) that stops calls immediately and honors DNC requests universally","Completion reports with dispositioned contact lists, outcome counts, and routed follow-ups for seamless team action"],"headline":"Win Back Lapsed Members With AI-Powered Re-Engagement","problems":[{"icon":"AlertTriangle","stat":"","color":"from-red-500 to-pink-500","title":"Admissions Are Down Since 2019 — Lapsed Moviegoers Aren't Coming Back on Their Own","description":"Domestic ticket sales have fallen to roughly 780 million admissions annually, down nearly from the 1.2 billion tickets sold in 2019. For exhibitors, that means thousands of patrons who once bought tickets every month simply stopped coming — and many still don't know your theater has added Premium Large Format (PLF) screens, new recliner seating, or event cinema programming. With tentpole releases arriving in waves, a lapsed member re-engagement campaign gives your box office a structured way to call those dormant patrons directly and remind them what they're missing."},{"icon":"Clock","stat":"64%","color":"from-red-500 to-pink-500","title":"Attendance Is Stuck at Just 64% of Pre-Pandemic Levels","description":"As of November 2025, domestic cinema attendance remains at only 64% of pre-pandemic levels. Changed viewing habits, longer theatrical windows shrinking, and at-home streaming have permanently altered patron behavior. Waiting for wide releases to fill seats is no longer a strategy — theaters need to actively reach the members who lapsed during 2020–2022, when industry revenue collapsed to roughly $2.1 billion, and rebuild the habit of coming back."},{"icon":"DollarSign","stat":"Revenue Per Customer","color":"from-red-500 to-pink-500","title":"Fewer Patrons Means Every Ticket and Concession Dollar Counts More","description":"With the customer base permanently smaller, exhibitors must grow per-patron spending to offset declining admissions. That means driving loyalty program enrollment, promoting premium formats like ScreenX and PLF that command higher ticket prices, and pushing concession offers to the patrons you do reach. But your front-of-house staff is busy running the theater — they don't have time to work through a list of 12–24 month dormant members. Structured outbound calling campaigns turn that dormant list into a working asset without adding headcount."}],"quickWins":["Run a win-back campaign against members dormant 12–24 months ahead of a major tentpole release window, with one clear goal: get them booked for opening weekend.","Use structured reminder calls for event cinema screenings and PLF showings — same-day and day-before windows — to fill premium-format seats that carry higher per-patron revenue."],"subheadline":"Run structured outbound calling campaigns to reconnect with dormant members and drive theater visits without expanding your call center.","problemTitle":"The Hidden Costs of Member Attrition in Movie Theaters","testimonials":[{"quote":"Our loyalty database has years of sign-ups from online ticketing and event cinema promotions, and we honestly weren't sure what we could legally call.
