We use Eventbrite to help us look slick on our events, because that’s what this nice bit of software does!
Clay can share all the easy, wonderful programming things Eventbrite does (Ed: Clay’s take on Eventbrite here.), so I’ll stick with the marketing reasons I like…
- Look professional. It makes you look like you are running a professional event. You know what I mean. Often you want to have a workshop or hold a free session to help you prospect, but you just don’t have the skills or know-how to make your own website. This is where you’ll love Eventbrite because it will easily help you look organized, professional and help your attendees feel like they are headed toward a great session.
- Payment Processing. If you decide to charge a fee for this service, they doesn’t kill you with fees. You can easily hook it in to your pay pal account and keep everything nice.
- Market your event. See all the social media icons up at the top of this event page below? Your attendee (or even you) can just easily click one of those and it connects to your profile, imports your contacts or posts on your profile exactly what you want to say about your event. It’s so easy! You can even set up your event to tweet once someone has decided to attend, or, let all attendees see who else is coming. It’s very social.
- Now for Non Profits. Gather for Good: Eventbrite for Causes launched earlier this year. It helps non profits do all this stuff really well too.
