(Fund) Raising the Bar: The Value of Event Tech for Nonprofits
Event Marketing and Promotion
Building awareness and creating excitement and buzz around your events is critical. But the fact is, it's difficult for anyone to pull this off without some help. Event technology can ease the process by allowing you to create automated, targeted, and personalized marketing campaigns to maximize the impact of your promotion efforts. From email messages to branded registration websites, you'll be able to communicate the right message to your constituents to drive event registration and attendance--at the right time. You'll also be able to quickly and easily track the success of your marketing and promotion efforts and adjust accordingly.
- Build impactful marketing campaigns
- Segment contacts for relevant outreach
- Drive awareness with social media promotion
Event Registration and Ticketing
You don't want your event registration website to be a barrier to success. Your attendees want a user-friendly registration experience, and event technology can give them one. With, say, a customized one-page, pre-populated registration form, the experience can be fulfilling, instead of frustrating. You’ll also be able to select a ticketing-style process or collect donations during registration. The technology gives you the option.
- Collect personal information
- Set ticket types and pricing options
- Accept online registrations
- Process payments securely
- Manage seating for tabled events
Onsite Check-In
Recovering from a bad first impression is difficult. Long lines, crowds huddling around tables filled with pre-printed name badges on lanyards, and general confusion around check-in can put your most important events in a hole, even before they really begin. Event technology can solve these cringe-worthy situations in a snap. When your attendees arrive, you'll be able to quickly check them in and get them off to your event. You’ll shorten your check-in lines, reduce the staff needed at the registration desk, and start your event off on the right foot. No more bad first impressions.
- Quickly register and check in attendees
- Print name badges and table tents on demand
- Collect payments and donations on-site
- Have real-time data on event performance
