The Goal: Manually send a one-off reminder email to the attendees of an event so they have the latest details before it begins.
Before You Begin:
- You need permission to manage events and send communications.
- Have at least one attendee registered for the event you want to remind.
- You can also set up an event reminder to be sent automatically. See Setup an Automatic Event Reminder.
| NOTE: You can also setup an event reminder to be sent automatically. See Setup an Automatic Event Reminder. |
set upStep-by-Step Instructions
- Go to Events & Learning, Events section, click All Events, and open your event.
- Open the Attendees tab of your event.
-
Click the down arrow next to the Add Registration button.
- Select Send Event Reminder Email.
- A default template has not been created for Event Reminders. You can create the message on the Send Email screen, or, if you have a standard Event Reminder email that you send out, you may create a template. See Create and Manage Email Templates for instruction on creating email templates.
| DID YOU KNOW? When someone registers for an event it is considered a transaction that they opted into, thus they are eligible for receiving all emails from the event in case the event is cancelled, postponed, or otherwise updated. |
Common Pitfalls
- Forgetting there is no default template: Event Reminders have no pre-built template, so compose the message on the Send Email screen or build a reusable template first.
