009-06 SMS Event Reminders
00:00:11:21 - 00:00:17:02
I'm sorry. I was just replying to an event RSVP from SwiftFox via SMS.
00:00:17:06 - 00:00:25:23
Now, that was just a simple theatrical device used by people in the biz such as myself to illustrate a point. And that point is this.
00:00:25:35 - 00:00:40:00
If you want to find someone, you have to go where they are and where they are is on their phone. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to send an RSVP response via SMS.
00:00:40:04 - 00:00:51:49
Here I am in the event builder. I'm at the Email/SMS stage. Now I've already sent out my invitations, but I'm still waiting on some answers and now I need some replies. So what do I do?
00:00:52:03 - 00:01:08:21
Select SMS, then write your message in this nifty sidebar. Event is next Saturday RSVP to secure your place, select send rules, I want to track down the people who haven't replied and get an answer. Select no RSVP.
00:01:08:25 - 00:01:22:04
In your message be clear how your recipients can reply to your text. The responses are ‘Yes’, ‘Y’, ‘No’ or ‘N’ anything else and SwiftFox will not register the RSVP response.
00:01:22:08 - 00:01:30:37
Pick your date and time, make sure you send this message at a time, people are awake.
00:01:30:41 - 00:01:39:03
Select an unsubscribe method, do not choose no unsubscribe method unless you’re sure you're not in breach of the spam act.
00:01:39:07 - 00:01:42:40
Check the spam act to determine this. Do not guess.
00:01:43:00 - 00:01:48:04
Then I'll click send.
00:01:48:08 - 00:01:52:22
You can see the responses filing in. Look at this beautiful list.
00:01:52:34 - 00:02:03:18
Now you're going to work out your attendee list today because all your guests had to do was just look at their phone, feel flattered by the attention, and write a simple yes or y
