Creating Event Booking Communications Campaign

Automatically send event details, preparation instructions, and reminders to customers who book parties or events. Event Booking Communications allow you to engage event organizers the moment they secure their reservation—ensuring they have all necessary instructions, schedules, and reminders leading up to their big day. By delivering timely information and clear payment prompts, you eliminate confusion, reduce support inquiries, and ensure parties run smoothly. These campaigns are highly effective because they keep hosts fully prepared and confident in their booking experience from start to finish.

Prerequisites:

Create email template(s) or SMS templates that include event details, preparation guidelines, links to sign waivers, and remaining balance payment reminders.

Aluvii Customers See Strong Results from Event Booking Campaigns

Operators who implement event communication campaigns can expect to see less manual effort, higher customer satisfaction, fewer missed event details, and faster collection of remaining balances. By combining automated confirmation messages with targeted countdown reminders and payment notices, venues can streamline event management and deliver a five-star customer experience. When paired with built-in tracking in the Growth Marketing Module, you can clearly measure message engagement and operational efficiency. Here's how you can do it.

  1. First, we assume you already know how to create a campaign.
    • Campaign Format - You can either choose Email or SMS
    • Data Source -  Booking
    • Subject Line: Keep it clear and informative. Examples include: “Your Event is Booked! 🎉 Here Are Your Next Steps” or “Reminder: Upcoming Event Details & Remaining Balance for {{EventName}}”
    • Email Sender:  Select one of your preconfigured email senders.
    • Campaign Channel:  Select the appropriate campaign type (e.g., General or Promotion).

  2. Next, create the Rules & Definition
    • Campaign Type:  Select On a Repeating Schedule.
    • Dynamic Send Date: Decide how soon you want to send the email (e.g., same day or 1 day after booked-on date, or 7 days before booking date).
    • Email Recipient:  Select Account Owner.
    • Email Template:  Select your event booking email template.

  3. Next, set your schedule
  • Set the time of day to send the email

  1. Filters
  •  Add Filters:  Recommended filters depending on your campaign focus:

 

For Booking Confirmations (refer back to Step 2 under Dynamic Send Date):

You can configure the booking confirmation email to send at one of two times:

  • The day after the booking is made: Set Dynamic Send Date to Send date is 1 Days After Booked On. Then, under Schedule, select your preferred Time of Day to Send Email.

  • The night the booking is made: Set Dynamic Send Date to Send date is 0 Days After Booked On. Then, under Schedule, select an evening time under Time of Day to Send Email.

  • No additional filters needed unless you want to target a specific event category or event package name, etc.

 

For Payment Reminders (Remaining Balance):

Field Operator Values
Pay Status Equals (or NotEquals) Partial, Unpaid (or Paid)

For Specific Event Types (e.g., Kids' Parties):

Field Operator Values
Kids Age Equals/Between [Specify age group]
