How do event planners use Evently and PosterMyWall together?
PosterMyWall handles the part Evently doesn't: getting people to come. Design the flyer, click "Promote as event" to turn it into an event page, then collect RSVPs or sell QR tickets from that page. On Premium, one-click promotion sends the event as an email campaign and a social post at the same time, and automated reminder emails go out before the event.
Evently helps with a different step: finding the caterer, photographer, DJ or decorator. Browsing and sending requests through Evently Blast is free for planners.
Once the vendors are booked, a local event planner's promotion work usually runs like this on PosterMyWall:
-
Design the poster or flyer from a template and add a QR code that links to the event page.
-
Turn the design into an event page that collects RSVPs, or sells tickets on Premium.
-
Send email invitations and post to social media at the same time with one-click promotion (Premium).
-
Let automated reminder emails go out before the event (Premium), then send a follow-up campaign afterwards.
How can event vendors get more bookings and market their business?
Event vendors need two things: new leads, and a way to stay in front of past clients and local customers. Evently covers the first. Planners find vendors on Evently and send requests, and vendors on Evently Premium turn those requests into invoices, signed contracts and booked dates. PosterMyWall covers the second: the flyers, menus, social posts and emails that keep a vendor's own audience coming back.
Here is how each type of vendor can use PosterMyWall alongside a marketplace listing:
-
Caterers: design menus and price lists with the Menu Maker, email seasonal menus to past clients, and post weekly specials to Instagram and Google Business Profile.
-
DJs and bands: make gig posters and animated promo videos, and schedule clips to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube ahead of each booking.
-
Photographers and videographers: turn recent shoots into social posts, and send email campaigns announcing open dates or seasonal sessions.
-
Decorators: share finished setups as social posts and flyers, and email planners you have worked with when new themes or rentals are available.
Email campaigns and post scheduling need PosterMyWall Premium ($13/month), which includes 3,000 email sends a month and 3 social accounts. The free plan lets you design, export emails and publish to one social account.
