Email Marketing + Automation

More participation. Less annual chasing.

An automated recruitment sequence explains the booth opportunity and guides interested organizations toward applying. Consistent follow-up replaces ad hoc outreach, creating a repeatable process that can run again each season.

The bottleneck

Recruitment started over every season.

Volunteer-led outreach happened in bursts. Interested organizations could fall between the first message and an application.

The fix

A simple, connected recruitment process.

  1. 01
    Introduce the opportunity
    A clear invitation explains participation.
  2. 02
    Follow through
    Consistent messages answer common questions.
  3. 03
    Connect the application
    A direct route from interest to submission.
