Our Email Blast feature is a powerful tool that allows you to send mass emails to past, current, and potential registrants with ease. Whether you're sending important updates to your registrants, or re-engaging previous participants, the Email Center streamlines your communication efforts.
You can send emails to registrants from your RedPodium, TicketSpice, or RegFox events, or upload email lists from a previous registration provider or other email platforms to ensure a seamless transition of contacts. Plus, with built-in tracking, you can monitor who clicks on links in your emails—helping you measure engagement and optimize your outreach.
If you would like to promote your upcoming event to past registrants, we recommend using our Drip Campaigns feature, a powerful sales tool that can be used to send a series of emails to past registrants or an imported list of emails. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to use the Email Blast feature to effectively connect with your audience.
Email Center Pricing
Emails sent from the Email Center are $0.02 per email recipient and will require a card on file to use. This feature will be billed every 30 days for any emails you sent out during that billing period.

From the Pages screen, hover your mouse over Email Center in the top menu bar
Select Email Blasts from the dropdown
Click Create Campaign (this is found in the middle of the page if this is your first time using the Email Blast feature, or in the right-hand corner if you have already used the feature)
Configure the Email
Create the Campaign Name - This is for internal and reporting purposes only
Set who you would like the email to send to
Past Registrants - This allows you to send emails to past registrants on your RedPodium, TicketSpice, or RegFox page(s) or to previous donors on your GivingFuel page(s)
Manually Enter or Import Emails - This option allows you to paste in email addresses from past registration providers you've used, or MailChimp or other places you've captured emails. These email addresses can be placed on separate lines or separated by spaces, commas, or semicolons
Filters: If you select the Past Registrants option and send the email to a single page, you can choose to filter the email blast to only send to people who selected a specific registration option/multiple choice option or registered between specific dates
You can toggle the Show Button option on to display a "Buy Now" button that links to one of your registration pages. When this option is turned on, our system will track which recipients clicked the button and signed up for your event
Click Continue
Pro Tip: The filtering option goes away when you send an Email Blast to multiple pages. Filters are only available when you select one page per Email Blast.

Select Send Immediately to send the first email immediately, or select Schedule to schedule the email to send on a future date and time

NOTE: If you chose Send Immediately, it will take 3-5 minutes (sometimes longer) for your email to send. Once the email has been sent, the status will update to Sent and the recipient numbers will update as well.
Manage a Scheduled Email
NOTE: While an email in the sequence has a status of Scheduled, you are able to view, edit, send a test and delete the message. But once an email is sent, you are no longer able to send a test, make edits or stop it from sending.
Warning: Deleting an email cannot be undone. So proceed with caution.

How Can I Create an Effective Email and Drive Revenue with My Email Blasts?
🏆 3 Tips for Creating an Email To Drive Revenue
Grab the reader's attention with a compelling subject line: The subject line is the first thing that recipients will see in their inbox, so make sure it's attention-grabbing and relevant to the content of the email. Avoid using spammy-sounding phrases or all-caps text, as these may trigger spam filters.
Keep the message concise and clear: People are bombarded with emails every day, so keep your message short, simple, and easy to understand. Make sure the main message is communicated early on in the email, so readers don't have to scroll or search for it.
Make the call-to-action clear: Whatever action you want your recipients to take, make sure the call-to-action is clear and easy to find.
