Customization Tips

Best Practices

1
Keep reminder emails short and scannable — focus on logistics, not marketing
2
Send at a time when people are likely to read it (early evening for the next day, or morning for same-day events)
3
Include a way to cancel so you can manage headcount for food and materials
4
Add the event to a calendar link (Google Calendar, Outlook) for easy adding
