5 Things You Don't Want to Forget on Your ezEvent Page!

Earlier this week, we provided you with information about the five things you don't want to forget when planning events. Now, we're giving you tips about things you don't when to forget when creating your ezEvent page.

First Impressions Matter

If a user looks at your event page and thinks it's too plain or doesn't look professional, they may question the quality of your event. Don't let that happen! Be sure to add in images, videos, and a theme so that potential buyers get an accurate impression of what your event is. If you have a website, you can match your event page to it so customers feel that it's legitimate. The better the page looks, the more attendees you'll get!

Event Details

Potential event attendees want to know what an event is about before they commit to buying a ticket. Use the event details section to provide guests with the event's schedule, entertainment, activities, menu, or any other information you think is important for them to know. Additional information such as the dress code or parking instructions may help you avoid no-shows or late comers. If your tickets have any special requirements (age limit) or extras (items in a VIP package), be sure to provide a detailed explanation that so buyers know exactly what they're getting.

Host Contact Information

If attendees have questions you want to make it simple for them to get the answers they need when they need them. This is why entering in complete and accurate host contact information is so important! ezEvent prefills the Contact Email with the email address entered in by the event organizer on the Sign Up screen. If someone else is the host you'll want to add a new contact by entering in their name, phone number and email address. If the event organizer is the host, it's important to add in all of the additional information so attendees know who they're contacting.

Publicize Your Event

What's the point of hosting an event if no one attends? If you want people to find your event page and buy tickets, you need to promote your event! Use ezEvent's tools to send out emails to all of your contacts, share your event on social media pages, and even create a Facebook event page that has a Get Tickets button linking to your ezEvent page. You can also use our widgets to add buy tickets buttons to your site, and include a calendar or list view of all of your events. Don't forget to include the event link on any signage or flyers you create!

Payment Information

If you have a paid event, you'll want to receive your money after the event. We can only do that if you provide us with your payment information! After you sign up, visit the Account page.Click the Payment tab and fill out the screen that looks like a check. You can also provide your payment information on the Customize screen under the Buyer Payment Options section.

If you complete all of these steps, your event is sure to sell out! If you need some inspiration on how to make your page great, check out our example events page!
