Is there a free, better, branded alternative to Evite?

We also offer a free alternative to evite, branded for a fraction of the cost evite would charge you… (if you can get an answer from them!) For a nominal setup fee, you can have your own co-branded invitation portal all of your consultants can use for FREE every month.

We allow you to upload branded invitation that can be “featured” designs for your own branded portal. Your logo will appear at the top of EVERY page the guests see. We can even enable Store forwarding to your consultant’s site like Eventuity offers, and best yet this is free to use. Capture your branding (along side PurpleTrail’s) and give your consultants a service with better SPAM scores than evite or oter competitiors. Consultants and Host can co-host an event with a few quick steps, and have a branded alternative to Evite. They will still be able to capture their host’s email addresses and use our service to send out Announcements and eCards (Newsletters, and branded emails).

Best of all, with our Print at home and professional printing, consultants will be able to print branded, one off Postcards to mail to those guests that don’t have email addresses. They can even request a free sample pack from PurpleTrail to see the print quality before they buy it. (80% post consumer paper and Enviromental friendly ink and printing process).

Take a look at http://dswa.purpletrail.com for an example portal they can use today. Would you like your branded portal too?

Do you know what your last freevite looked like?

When you allow your consultants to use a free, non-branded evite service, you never know what you are going to get. Just think… every email invitation that gets sent out by your consultants, or their hosts are a commercial and free advertising for your company brand. Do you know what your commercial looks like today?

My wife was invited to 3 separate parties from the same company, a pretty well known kitchen supply party plan company. The invitations she revieved from the consultants were all non-branded and from evite. I’ll tell you what, setting them side by side you would never have know what type of party they were for, and worst yet, you wouldn’t have known they were from the same company! Will you let your consultants wash down your brand when sending invitations or do you want to claim control of your brand?

Homemade Gourmet is a client of ours and they have captured their branding for their parties. Their site is their brand, their invitations show their products (yummy food), their logo and their message. On EVERY email that goes out. Now when you figure for the last year that is hundreds of thousands of emails, all with their branding… you see where I am going with this.

Other benefits other than the branding is an integrated store to capture online, (24/7) outside orders. Automatic forwarding to the store when a guest RSVPs they can’t make it, specialized fundraising catalog filters if you want to limit your fundraisers to say, 24 of your best selling products. Or, you can forward guests to your own store, or consultant’s replicated websites like another client Sensaria does.

Lastly, how much potential business are you losing out on by not marketing to every person that is invited to a party? With Eventuity, every guest that is invited whether by the consultant, the host or by another guest. Every address is captured in the Consultant’s (and Corporate’s) address book and user database. This is everyone. Even the guests that say no and don’t buy, the guests that come and don’t buy anything… everyone. So now, out of 40 people invited to a party or show, how many do you know about today? Hopefully 25% show up, and 80% of those that show buy… you are looking at 8 out of 40 guests. How are you going to reach those guests that didn’t come or buy anything?

Talk to me Today! I can set up a free, no obligation demonstration of how the system works. And with Eventuity there is NEVER any contracts, you always pay month to month.
