Event Lifecycle: design, build & automation at scale

Event communication was fragmented and dependent on manual execution. Built a six-phase lifecycle — waitlist, pre-launch, launch, open gates, date extension and FOMO — fully automated in SFMC.

Overview

Later fully automated in Salesforce Marketing Cloud with dynamic templates and reusable journey structures adapting to city, event and engagement.

Event communication was fragmented and heavily dependent on manual execution. Scalability across cities was limited and consistency suffered, especially during high-demand launches.

  • Waitlist acquisition and audience building
  • Pre-launch expectation campaigns
  • Launch communications and "open gates" activation
  • Date extensions and FOMO-driven re-engagement
  • ~60% faster campaign setup
  • Global rollout across cities and verticals
  • Consistent UX across every launch
