Welcome to AEvent!

There's a few high-level things we need to cover that will help accelerate your onboarding process with the platform, as well as ensure you are able to implement with ease.

How our Help Center & Support Works

Our Help and Documentation Center is laid out in the exact same way as to our APP.

Making it easy to navigate and quickly find what you are looking for.

If you are within a Timeline inside our App. and you want to know about a specific feature, the layout is replicated throughout our help center.


​

In addition any Tool header found throughout the App, if clicked, will initiate our Support tool to popup with direct information relating to that tool. And if applicable, it will have links to additional Tutorials.

Our Support Tool can always be found within our App as well as within our Help Center.

You will find our current response time, as well as operation hours. We strive at providing quality support, quick-replies and a genuine understanding not only of your issue, but the desire to get ! πŸ’Œ

An AEvent Timeline, and How It Works

Tons of work goes into putting on a Live Event. Whether that is Online or Offline, from the first invites to the final thank you, that full production is a taxing and exhausting experience.

Then to think about doing that on a Monthly, Weekly, or Daily basis, becomes unimaginable.

AEvent strives to remove 100% of the tasks and effort it takes to hold your online Event, Webinar, Workshop, Mastermind, Challenge, Meeting. We're also in-it to help you maximize your results from your VSL / Sales Page based traffic with AConversion!

An AEvent Timeline defines every single thing occurs with your Online Event. From Registration Second to Final Contact. It IS the template of your Event.

With our Timeline tool, you can get both a Micro and a Macro view of your Online Event. from the macro of a month to the micro of a day.

An AEvent Timeline operates in a way where it can be built to be a Single One-Time Event, or the opposite of that, an Evergreen Timeline. Our Timeline Technology operates seamlessly between Delivery Platforms, so you never need to feel stuck and locked into a single solution.

Timeline Action Builder

Within your AEvent Timeline, the core-tool is our Action Builder. Every "Action" that occurs with your Event is scheduled using it.

That could be from an SMS sent to the Registrant reminding them of their upcoming Event, or it could be an Action to send all Cart Abandoners to Google Sheets.

Everything is defined here, lets go over the action builder and it's elements.

Action Execution Time 'When'

If using an Evergreen Timeline Type, you can select the day in which you want to create the action within any of our views, the top of the Action Builder displays the day selected.

If using a Live Timeline Type, the Day selection will display the time/day in which the action will occur.

When defining the Time that the action is to occur, you can select either Relative Time or Exact Time.

Relative time, is in relation to the time of day that the event is scheduled for. (5 Hours)

Exact time, is set for an exact time of day. (5 PM)

As a best practice we recommend using Exact time outside day of the Event, and relative time in day of Event actions. This will enable you to schedule your Event at different times of the day, and an Action that is set for 4 hours before, will always occur 4 hours before, whether the Event is occurring at 12pm or 8pm!

Audience Targeting 'Who'

When selecting the audience you are targeting, if you are setting your action to occur BEFORE your event, you will only have the Audience selection of 'Registrants' (or any other custom audience that doesn't include Attendee data). If you are setting your action to occur AFTER your event, you can target Attendees and Non-Attendees (and any other custom audience you've created).

Integration Selection 'What'

The final selection within the Action Builder is the most important. This is where you will select the Integration details for the action you are creating!

Before you can select your Integration within the Action Builder, please make sure you've activated it within the Timeline!
