Event links: get your event saved in people’s calendars
Announcing an event is easy; getting people to remember it is another story. With a 1li.ch event link, whoever receives the invitation saves the details straight to their phone’s calendar, with the date, time and place already filled in. Fewer “I forgot”, more people turning up.
What an event link is for
An event link is a link that, when opened, offers to add the event to your calendar. You share it on WhatsApp, in your newsletter or on social media, or turn it into a QR code to print on the poster. It works well for anything with a date: a village festival, a match, a course, a general meeting, a shop opening. You can also add it to your bio link page, next to the programme, the ticket link and the map.
As with your other links, the statistics show how many people opened the invitation.
Three examples from Ticino
The chestnut festival
The committee prints a QR code on the posters hanging in the valley’s bars. Anyone who scans it saves the date of the festival to their calendar, with the address of the square already filled in for navigation.
The youth hockey club
Before every tournament, the coach sends the parents an event link in the group chat. Meeting time and rink go straight into the calendar, and the “what time do we leave?” questions drop considerably.
The winery in the Mendrisiotto
For the tasting evening of the new Merlot, the winery puts the event link in its newsletter and on its bio link page. Guests get a reminder from their calendar the day before.
