Eventbrite SMS Automation
Automatically confirm RSVPs and send timely SMS reminders at 24 hours and 1 hour before your event. Keep guests informed, reduce no‑shows, and improve Attendance % with ActiveCampaign + D7 SMS.
Why This Workflow Matters
Getting people to show up is just as important as getting them to RSVP. This automation confirms attendance right away, tags attendees for easy segmentation, and sends friendly reminders at the right moments. The result: more people arrive prepared and on time, and your Attendance % goes up with minimal manual work.
How The Automation Works
- Trigger: Eventbrite order created / RSVP
- Entry Conditions: rsvp = yes
- Tags/Fields Created: tag: event_attendee
- ActiveCampaign Steps: Send confirmation SMS -> reminders 24h & 1h
- SMS Sent (via D7): {'method': 'POST', 'url': 'https://api.d7networks.com/sms/send', 'body': "{ 'to':'{{phone}}','content':'Your RSVP is confirmed. Event link: {{event_link}}' }"}
- Exit Conditions: attended
- Goal: Attendance %
Automation Table
| Step | What Happens | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Trigger | Eventbrite order created / RSVP | Starts the flow the moment someone RSVPs. |
| Entry check | rsvp = yes | Ensures only confirmed RSVPs enter the sequence. |
| Tag applied | event_attendee | Keeps attendee lists organized for follow-up and reporting. |
| Confirmation SMS sent via D7 | Instantly reassures guests and shares the event link. | |
| 24-hour reminder (ActiveCampaign) | Gives attendees time to plan and reduces forgetfulness. | |
| 1-hour reminder (ActiveCampaign) | A final nudge that drives on-time attendance. | |
| Exit when attendee is marked attended | Stops messaging once a guest shows up. | |
| Track Goal | Attendance % | Measures success and helps optimize future events. |
