Templates for events — it talks about places, not appointments
Five moments dedicated to event registrations, with the vocabulary that suits them.
The problem
A workshop is not an appointment. The participant books places, sometimes for several people, in a session that exists independently of them. Writing “your appointment is confirmed” rings false in the very first line.
The mismatch is not only stylistic. The useful information is not the same: the number of places, the venue which may differ from your usual address, the person leading it, the session chosen among several.
Recycling appointment messages for registrations produces approximate emails, exactly where participants most need precision.
How it works in Kagenda
Events have their own set of templates, separate from the appointment ones, covering five moments in the life of a registration.
- Separate templatesThey share nothing with the appointment templates: changing one does not affect the other.
- Suitable vocabularyThe messages talk about places and registration, and carry the session concerned when the event has several.
- The details specific to the eventVenue — on site, a specific address or online — and the person leading it, both of which may differ from your usual settings.
Who it helps
Frequently asked questions
When should I use an event rather than a service?
An event has fixed dates, possibly several sessions, and ticketing by price category. A service with several places is booked continuously on your usual slots. A dated course is an event; a weekly class is a service.
Do participants get a reminder?
The event templates cover the key moments of a registration. Reminder settings are made at business level.
Can several people be registered at once?
Yes, a registration carries a number of places, and the message reflects it.
