What can event planners do with SMS?
−
You can confirm RSVPs, send reminders, coordinate vendors, share event details, provide last-minute updates, and follow up with surveys or thank-you notes.
How quickly do attendees and vendors respond to texts?
+
Most texts are read within minutes, making SMS the fastest way to ensure important updates, like time changes or location adjustments, are seen right away.
Can we use our existing business number?
+
Yes. You can text-enable your main number so attendees, vendors, and staff can text or call the same line. Messages can be routed automatically to the right team member.
How do after-hours auto-replies work?
+
Auto-replies confirm receipt of late-night inquiries, collect details like event type or headcount, and let the sender know when they’ll receive a reply.
Can we segment messages and track results?
+
Yes. Segment by role, event type, or location. Track RSVPs, responses, and attendance to measure event success.
Does this integrate with event management software?
+
Textellent integrates with CRMs, ticketing platforms, and event management tools, syncing registrations, communications, and data seamlessly.
What about compliance and opt-in or opt-out?
+
Attendees opt in through registration, keywords, or QR codes. Each message includes opt-out instructions, and STOP and HELP requests are processed automatically to stay compliant.
Can we try Textellent for free?
+
Yes. Event planners can start with a 14-day free trial to test SMS reminders, campaigns, and event workflows before upgrading.
