Just sent a calendar invite to 800+ people to attend the next @IndieBeers, after many requests for it.
Genuinely curious to see the impact this has on attendance!
Our average attendance is probably around 50 people, based on the old way.
I have a theory the new way will add to this number... I'm just unsure by how much.
Quick comparison:
24 hrs after a Meetup announcement: ~20 RSVPs
24 hrs after this Luma calendar invite: 46 RSVPs
lu.ma
That's with a smaller total list too.
800 on Luma vs 1,500 on Meetup.
5.7% vs 1.4% conversion rate after 24 hrs.
...4x difference. 🥲
The moral of the story:
Assuming your audience is interested in your events...
Use calendar invites for your community/audience.
