Communicating about my Event using SMS Text Messages

Using SMS as a communication strategy for your event establishes interaction between organizers, attendees, speakers and further targets. It allows your message to be heard whether the goal is to send out reminders, teasers or to advertise.

Under Communication SMS is a standard feature. That means nothing needs to be enabled or installed.
On the other hand, to contact the speakers of your event, you need the SMS Marketing application installed, and to enable Schedule & Tracks under Events ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings.

The Schedule & Tracks feature allows you to manage the agenda and speakers of your event. For more details watch: Creating an agenda for your event.

Send SMSs to attendees

Under Communication, the message’s target is the attendees of your event.
You can choose to confirm each registration with the Registration template, and to send a reminder shortly before the event takes place with the Reminder template.
