PROTOTYPE 1 - VIPLST 500 Workflow
The seven steps above for sending a calendar invite to a VIP List of up to 500 in one.
CSV Hle. The VIP List is not live, and we are currently testing it in the private release
as of May 29, 203.
If you want to have a login to it, reach out to me at greg@techvader.com
It takes about 3 minutes with some practice.
I did a review of it here on the 31events.com channel. See the below YouTube.
The workflow of how mandy@techvader.com got a calendar invite from the
VIPLST
Step Eight - Reporting review of the Y, M, and N’s from the calendarsnack reporting
consoles.
mandy@techvader.com workSow.
Her email is in the. CSV sheet and sent to bulk@calendarsnack.com. She receives the
calendar invite and clicks, “Maybe.”
That calendar receipt from Mandy’s calendar client is collected and scored in the
calendarsnack database and the reporting console.
If she changes the Y, N, or maybe status, the reporting will update those changes.
Below is the walk-through of the story in the one through eight steps.
Step 1. Get a Calendarsnack by using your calendar client. Use our copy command of
create@calendarsnack.com in your Calendar Client. You will receive a calendarsnack
back to the email address used to create the calendarsnack in your calendar client.
Step #2. Get the EventID (UID) from the Calendarsnack notiHcation email sent back
from generating the calendarsnack o] the calendar client.
The calendarsnack screenshot in #3 is the console. The console contains the EVENT
ID for VIPLST, RSVP Button codes, Landing Page URLs, and the Reporting Data.
Steps 4 and 5. The instructions for putting the . CSV list together are to develop two
columns in the. CSV sheet. "UID" for column one and "EMAIL" for column two.
Step 6. In this example, we used the speciHc EVENT ID of
"pepdq80cl42ct4cs2vnl2nm76rbm7couthsull01" generated for this calendarsnack and
copied that down the sheet to instruct the message Sow to send this EVENT ID and
the email list.
It is possible to send to multiple di]erent EVENT IDs in the same. CSV Hle.
Because we have this feature enabled, you must instruct which email address goes to
what event id for the API to understand the message request in the Que.
Step 7. The email names are in column two.
The Hle is saved and ready to be attached to the calendarsnack creator's email client
and sent to the bulk@calendarsnack.com address for processing.
In this example, this was greg@techvader.com, who created the calendarsnack on his
calendar client, and he has attached the .CSV email list to his email client and sent it
to bulk@calendarsnack.com to start the service.
He receives a notiHcation from the bulk notiHcation service that the Hle has been
received and sent.
The calendarsnack Bulk notiHcation service will send you an automated email with
the status.
Workflow of the VIPList for mandy@techvader.com
Detailed Reporting Data from the VIPLST Send
You will receive an email with the attached list and the status of each calendar invite
sent.
In this workSow below, we would combine the two methods during Calendarsnack
processing. When you create the Calendarsnack, you can attach the VIPLST to the
calendar invite and send it to create@calendarsnack.com.
This is the other workflow we are working on . It gives the option to upload the
VIPLST at the same time the calendarsnack is created.
In addition to the VIP LIST, the calendarsnack includes two other core shipping
features today. Customers have used these to send over 1 million calendar invitations
over the past four years.
They are the RSVP Button and the Upcoming Landing pages.
The Upcoming Landing Pages are NO CODE and auto generated in 10 seconds
each time you request a calendarsnack
Each time a calendarsnack is requested to the create@calendarsnack.com address, the
"GET THE INVITE" for that calendar invite is added to the Upcoming Events
Landing Page URL.
If you wish not to display the Event on the Upcoming Page, you can delete the Event
o] your calendar client, and it will remove it automatically from the Upcoming Page.
When someone inserts their email address at the top of the page, they can select
which Event they want to attend and click the button to receive a calendar invite.
The RSVP data is in your calendarsnack reporting console.

And the other one is called the RSVP Button, which is detailed below.
Klaviyo RSVP NO CODE Example Embed
This RSVP Button is for Klaviyo, which is auto-generated for every calendarsnack.
Klaviyo Email Marketing Campaign with RSVP Button Example
When a customer clicks the "Click to RSVP" - a calendar invite for that Event, the
customer is sent to a prebuilt landing page indicating the event details.
These two workHows are in each of the RSVP Buttons.
We support MailChimp, Klaviyo, SendGrid, and ConvertKit + 45 others for RSVP
BUTTONS to be embedded into Email Marketing platforms to accelerate calendar
invitation sending correctly.

In this example above you can see the 2 di]erent campaign channels that were used
for this particular retail promotion.
Thanks and that’s a wrap!
