It was a joy working with such a professional, organised events company. Every process was mapped out with specific deliverables, notes, requirements and dependancies (geeky, I know).
What did they need from us? A little automation using project management software. Using one of our favourites, Podio, we worked on and proposed the following:
Custom Events Podio AppĀ – each event is entered into it’s own app and links to the client and venue of the event. Once an event is created, there are 11 tasks that are scheduled over a 40 day period using custom Podio workflows. These tasks are auto-assigned and then automatically marked off when completed to give an easy view of the visual progress.
RSVP Podio AppĀ – this is created to be sent to clients in order to collect RSVP’s for the event. A custom Podio webform is created and this is teamed up with a custom short-link domain to keep the process as on-brand as possible. RSVPs are collected and referenced to the client so you know which events a particular person has RSVP’d for.
Post Event Survey Podio AppĀ – created in a similar way to the RSVP app with a webform and short-link URL. Feedback is referenced back to the client and a report is created with the overall participant satisfaction from the event.

Most review websites showcase the extremes – the customer who had the outstanding experience and the once-off, disgruntled customer who will never come back to your business again. We started thinking about this problem by asking the following questions: …
