How would you like an event management solution that will help you get the job done twice as fast and just as well or even better? A solution that will make the current way you manage events obsolete, the way Microsoft Word did to Typewriters. EventAvenue will do to the current practices of the Event Management Industry what Microsoft Word did to Typewriters; make them a footnote in the pages of history.

If you have ever used a typewriter, you will remember the constant stress caused by the need to be accurate in everything you did on the typewriter. There were no undo buttons to correct mistakes; you had to manually start all over again. Making multiple copies meant either typing all over again or dealing with messy carbon pages. You get the picture right? Once, Microsoft Word entered the picture correcting a mistake became a simple process of editing the document and reprinting. Like the freedom Microsoft Word provided its users, EventAvenue will provide you with similar feelings.

The key benefits are simplicity and automation. EventAvenue will simplify and reduce the number of steps taken to achieve a task. EventAvenue has a range of highly automated online features and tools that will help ease tedious manual processes and help you manage your event easily and at a click of a button. Be it registration, sales, invoicing, CRM, accounting and reporting tasks; EventAvenue can automatically handle almost all of your pre-event, on-site and post-event tasks easily, quickly and cost-effectively. EventAvenue will help you to reach out to your delegates, ramp up event attendance, offer online registration facility on your website, ease up the logistical hassles and tune up financial performance.

Reports: Why spend hour’s compiling reports when you can auto-generate multiple types of reports using your EventAvenue M.A.R.S. account.

EventAvenue has an Auto-email feature that allows you to create an Email using the ready formats provided and pre-set the email to be automatically sent at any given date. All you need to do is add the content, customize it as per your requirements and upload a list of email id’s to whom you want to send the mail too. A single individual can now achieve this multiple person job.

Labels and Badges: Prevent gatecrashers, track and monitor attendees, reduce your administrative costs and manpower requirements. Use EventAvenue’s ‘Labels and Badges’ feature to provide your attendees with customized and personalized event badges. You can use the any of the ready-to-use format styles provided to create custom badges for your event or you can even reuse a design from a previous event, auto-merge the information directly into the badge or personalize as per your requirements.
