# Tag

## Tag

Tags serve as a useful method to denote guests with extra details, such as why they're attending the event or their dietary requirements. They provide a convenient way to categorize and mark guests who share particular qualities.

## Benefits

There are several benefits to adding tags to attendees in an event:

1. Improved segmentation and filtering. Tags make it easy to segment and filter attendees by their interests or attributes. For example, you can easily retrieve a list of all VIP attendees or students or those interested in a particular talk topic. This allows for more targeted communication and follow up.
2. Better personalization. Knowing an attendee's tags and interests allows you to personalize their experience. You might promote certain sessions or activities you think they would enjoy based on their tags. Or customize their swag bag with items tailored to their interests.
