Add an event or webinar

Events holds your in-person events, tours and webinars, each with its page, guests, campaigns and results. Events never count against your plan.

Add an event always offers Import from a link. Webinar and Series appear once Webinars is in your Marketing, and In-person event once Field events is. Add either from Add to Marketing; both are on every plan.

Import an event from its link

Paste the link

Under Add an event, choose Import from a link and paste the Event page link.

Check it

Sessionboard reads the page. Select Add this event, or Not this one if it picked the wrong one.

Create a webinar or a series

Start a webinar

Under Add an event, choose Webinar.

Fill it in

Set the date, time and timezone, and pick the webinar platform: Zoom, Goldcast, ON24 or No platform yet.

Make it a series (optional)

Turn on Make it a series and choose the number of episodes, from 2 to 26.

Create it

Select Create webinar. It starts as a draft; nothing is created on the webinar platform until you publish.

To bring in a series you already run, use Bring in a webinar series. Past episodes bring their recording and attendance, and upcoming ones bring registrants as they sign up.

Create an in-person event

Choose In-person event and fill in the name, the date and time at the venue, the city and venue, and the time zone. You can also set:

• Seats: leave it at no limit, or set one; a waitlist opens when it is full.
• Who can register: Anyone can ask, you approve, or Only people you invite.
• Plus-ones, Hosts and a Tour if it is one stop of several.

Select Create the event. It starts as a draft: nobody is invited and its page is not live until you say so. See Run an in-person event.

The event’s page in Sessionboard Marketing

Select an event to open its profile: At a glance numbers (registrations, speakers, sessions, shares, content made and page views), registration and attendance goals, and Tools for this event, each with Set it up or Open.

Archive an event

For an event that was cancelled or added by mistake, select Archive event at the foot of its page, then Archive. It leaves every list and picker in your workspace, and its public page says This event has ended instead of taking registrations. Nothing is deleted.

To bring it back, open Events, select N archived, open the event and select Restore. Its page goes back online as it was.

Follow-ups that run by themselves

On an event, switch on the follow-ups you want: no-shows get the recording, attendees get the recap, new subscribers get a welcome, and invited guests get a reminder. Each asks you to confirm before it turns on.
