If this is your first time using an event planning website or if you just need a refresher in the process, follow our basic framework to get started planning your next event.
- Sign up for a free EventWax account. Getting started is easy. The website will guide you through the process.
- Next, create your event for free. This is where you give your event a name, date, time, place and description. At this point, you also can specify if your event is free or if you are going to sell tickets for your event.
- Spread the word. Once your event has been created, let all your potential attendees know by sending email invitations, make announcements on social media such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc...
- Manage your registration. Once you begin selling tickets or registering attendees, you can monitor your event sales and activity on the MyDashboard page. Here you can view Recent Activity on all your events, tally registered attendees, and watch your event reach capacity.
- Monitor your attendees. From the Events tab, select your event and click on Attendees. Here, you can view the ticket types sold and print out a list of confirmation codes for event check-in.
- Monitor Bookings. From the Bookings tab, you can view how many tickets have been purchased and payment status.
- Event Check-In. At the event's check-in booth, you can compare attendees' printed or emailed tickets with your printed attendee list, verifying the unique confirmation codes.
- Post-Event Follow-Up. After the event, make sure to go to the attendee's tab and send thank you follow-up emails to attendees, with any additional call-to-actions, such as creating a review, going to your website, liking your Facebook page, filling out a survey, etc.
