Invite families to book

Invite families sends the booking link to the parents in your People list who have not booked this night yet. It is the fastest way to announce a night, and you can send it again later as a nudge.

Before you start

• The night must be published. The Invite families button only shows while booking is open.
• You need families in People. They get there from any SizzleGo product, a roster import, or past bookings.

Steps

1. Go to Conferences, click the night, then click Invite families.
2. Read the card. It says how many families it reaches by email and what it costs in credits.
3. Tick Also send as a text to families who opted in if you want texts too.
4. Click the Invite button, which shows the number of families, and confirm.

Good to know

• Each family gets the invite in the language they last used with your school, and the link opens the booking page in that language.
• Families who unsubscribed from reminders are left out. Texts only go to families who said yes to texts, and wait for the end of your quiet hours.
• Cost: 1 credit per email, 3 per text. The confirm box shows the most it can cost.
• The Sent table lists each send and how many were invited. If it says stopped, you ran out of credits partway. Add credits in Settings, then send again. A new send goes to everyone who still has not booked, including families the first send reached.
• To write to families who already booked, use Message families instead.
