12 Ways To Instantly IncreaseEvent Sign-ups
Powered by
Streamline Your Sign-Up Process by Going Online.
Consumers are accustomed to searching for
products online and making purchases online.
Your events shouldn’t be treated any differently.
Allow attendees to register and pay in one
transaction online at their convenience.
Powered by
Communicate the Benefits in Your Event Description.
Remember everyone’s favorite radio station –
WIIFM – What’s In It For Me.
Don’t just say “Sign up for Our Fitness Boot
Camp”. Why should someone sign up? Will they
make new friends? Shed some weight? Feel
great? Let them know what’s in it for them.
Powered by
Share Pictures and Videos.
Show people the value instead of just telling
them about it. Tell a story through pictures and
video of past events that show attendees
having fun.
Powered by
Setting a savings incentive tied to an expiration
date is a great way to generate early sign-ups.
Set an Early-Bird Price with a Cut-Off Date.
Powered by
Post Your Event Everywhere Repeatedly.
Don’t just post about your event once on Facebook. Post
about it at least once a week on Facebook leading up to
the event. And don’t limit your posts and marketing to one
channel only. Post on all social networks, in online
directories, on your website, in emails.
Event success depends largely on repeat impressions.
Get the word out everywhere possible. Promote across
all channels repeatedly.
Powered by
Send emails to Past Attendees.
Your past attendees are likely to attend other events you
hold. It’s a smart practice to let your past attendees
know about your new upcoming events – and sending
them an email is the most direct way to communicate.
Tools like Event Manager store your past attendee data
and enable you to select on past attendees and send
emails directly through the software.
Powered by
Set a Seating Capacity.
Scarcity increases demand and compels people
to take action now rather than waiting.
Put a limit on the number of seats available at
your event and communicate the limited
availability.
Powered by
Add an Event Listing to Your Website.
Including your events on your website is a great way to
show everyone – your members and website visitors –
what’s going on at the facility.
Through tools like Member Solutions’ online event
registration software, Event Manager, you can add a
registration home page – or event listing page – to your
website to showcase all your active and available events.
Powered by
Set Up Promo Codes.
Setting up promotional savings codes and
sending them to a select group of prospective
attendees promotes exclusivity and will
ultimately increase event sign-ups.
In tools like Event Manager, you can even set up
activation and expiration dates for promo codes
and set capacities to promo codes to further
drive demand.
Powered by
Offer a 2-for-1 Special.
Adding a 2-for-1 promotion or a “Buy one, get the
second 50% off” adds value and encourages
multiple sign-ups.
Consider a sibling and/or friend promotion.
Chances are your attendee knows a person or
two who would be interested in the event.
Powered by
Offer a FREE Gift.
Take a look at your inventory and see what
you have that you could give away. Adding a
free gift to the first x number of sign-ups
sweetens the deal and will help drive early
registrations.
Powered by
Promote Your Event Offline.
It’s easy to loose sight of offline techniques
in today’s largely digital world.
Don’t forget to post flyers about the event in
your facility. Partner with local businesses
that will inform their customers about your
event. Mention the event before, during and
after classes.
Powered by
