Tips for getting it right
- Texts to clients should come from a clearly named sender. Put the company name in the first line.
- Only text people who've given you their mobile number for this kind of contact. Many companies send the formal invitation by email and use texts for reminders.
- Ask dietary questions on the RSVP form instead of in replies, so answers are in one list.
- For invite-only events, say how many seats there are. Scarcity is honest and gets faster answers.
Corporate event questions, answered
Is it professional to send a corporate invitation by text?
For people who've shared their mobile number with you, yes, especially for internal events and reminders. For first contact with new clients, email first and text the follow-ups.
What should a formal corporate invitation say?
Who's hosting, the purpose, date and time, place, dress code, and how to reply. Keep it to those essentials and put the agenda on the registration page.
How do I invite clients and employees to the same event?
Send separate messages. Clients need a welcome and arrival details; employees need their role, start time, and what's expected of them.
Can guests see each other's replies?
No. Each guest gets their own text, not a group chat, so their number and replies stay private. Replies come back to your Text My Event inbox, where you and your co-hosts can answer.
How do guests RSVP?
Add your RSVP link to any text. Guests tap it, answer on a short form with no login, and their response is added to your headcount. Anything they text back instead lands in your replies inbox.
Can a co-host help manage the event?
Yes. Invite co-hosts to your event and they share the same guest list, scheduled texts, and replies inbox.
