Every once in a while, a deal closes that makes you stop and rethink how broadly applicable a problem really is.
Our last deal of the year did exactly that.
The customer is an international casino group. On the surface, that might not sound like a typical “B2B account management” use case. But once we dug in and they explained their struggles, the parallels were impossible to ignore.
VIP Players Are Strategic Accounts
In this organization, a very small percentage of customers drives a massive share of revenue.
Not 80/20. More like 8% of players driving 80%+ of revenue.
Those VIP players aren’t just “customers.” They’re complex accounts:
- They have preferences, expectations, and service requirements
- They arrive with an entourage—family members, assistants, friends—who influence loyalty
- They expect highly personalized experiences
- And if something goes wrong with any part of that network, the revenue disappears fast
- If that sounds familiar, it should.
That’s how strategic accounts work in enterprise B2B, too.
The Real Problem Wasn’t Technology — It Was Fragmentation
Before Kapta, their VIP management lives across:
- CRM systems built for transactions, not relationships
- Spreadsheets tracking preferences and visit details
- Notes in emails, WhatsApp messages, and people’s heads
- Manual “handoffs” between hosts and managers
Leadership had no consistent way to answer basic questions:
- Which VIP relationships are healthy?
- Which ones are at risk?
- Who owns the relationship today?
- What’s planned for the next visit—or the next renewal equivalent?
Again… this is exactly what we hear from B2B account leaders every week.
Why Kapta Fit (and Why This Use Case Matters)
What resonated wasn’t “account planning software.”
It was the idea of a system built to manage high-value relationships over time.
For this casino group, Kapta will become:
- A single source of truth for each VIP and their network
- A way to plan and execute experiences, not just log activity
- A platform for qualitative insight, not just transactions
- A way for supervisors to see portfolio health, not just individual performance
In other words, we helped them manage VIP players the same way world-class companies use Kapta to manage strategic enterprise accounts.
The Parallel Every Revenue Leader Should Pay Attention To
Whether you’re:
- Managing Fortune 500 customers
- Running global key accounts
- Overseeing customer success portfolios
- Or hosting VIP players in a casino
The reality is the same:
High-value relationships don’t scale on spreadsheets, inboxes, or tribal knowledge.
They require:
- Structure without rigidity
- Visibility without micromanagement
- Personalization without chaos
That’s what this deal reinforced for us as we closed out the year.
Heading Into 2026
If your business depends on a small group of customers who matter a lot—
and if losing one would show up immediately in your revenue numbers—
you’re managing strategic accounts whether you call them that or not.
Our last deal of the year just happened to prove that in a very different industry.
And it reminded us why Kapta exists in the first place.
