This guide walks you through creating your first campaign in AEvent—your event's central container that powers the timeline, delivery method, automation logic, and integrated tools.
What Is a Campaign?
A campaign is the foundation of your event inside AEvent. It manages:
Event timeline
Delivery platform (e.g., Zoom, GoToWebinar, AStream)
Automation sequences
Integrations (CRM, Email, SMS, etc.)
Step-by-Step: Create Your First Campaign
1. Select Your Event Type
When starting a new campaign, you'll first choose your event type:
Live Webinar – Manual events hosted in real time
Evergreen Webinar – Automated or like-live events
Hybrid Webinar – Semi-automated events with a blend of live elements
Example: Select Evergreen Webinar and click Next
2. Choose a Timeline Template
Templates are pre-built event flows with scheduled automation slots.
Choose a template that best fits your campaign goals
You can fully edit and customize your timeline later
Example: Select “Evergreen Webinar” template and click Next
3. Select Your Delivery Platform
Choose the streaming platform you’ll use to deliver the event:
Zoom
GoToWebinar
AStream (AEvent’s native system)
Example: Select AStream and click Next
4. Define Event Details
Enter campaign-specific information:
Event Title (e.g., “Q3 Launch Zoom” or “July 5-Day Challenge”)
Internal Description (optional, for team reference)
Language (defaults to English)
If using AStream, upload your video file now or skip for later. Click Next
5. Enable Campaign-Specific Integrations
Toggle ON the integrations you want active for this campaign:
ActiveCampaign
Twilio
SlyBroadcast
...or any others previously connected
Click Next
6. Configure Integration Behavior
For each enabled integration, you can define behavior (optional at this step):
Example: Enable On Registration triggers in ActiveCampaign
Update integration-specific settings as needed
Click Create My Campaign
7. Review Campaign Summary
You’ll see a summary of:
Event Type
Selected Template
Campaign & Event Details
Delivery Platform
Enabled Integrations
Click Create Campaign to finalize setup.
✅ Campaign Created
Once your campaign is created:
AEvent generates your timeline and structure based on the selected template
You’ll be redirected to the Timeline section
All actions are fully editable—adjust or add to fit your event logic
