ActevaRSVP Makes It Easy

In 2009 Acteva created this website to promote its powerful yet simple on-demand business solution, ActevaRSVP. Eventually this domain's registration expired and the site disappeared from the web, The content below is from the site's archived pages. As the new owner of this domain I wanted to keep some of the site's archived content visible on the web for historical purposes. I worked for several Bay Area non profits around 2009-2012 and we utilized the ActevaRSVP to make the management of our large free events easier to handle. Now that I am a principal in an e commerce site (richmountaindist.com) selling wholesale vape supplies I no longer am crazed planning non profit events. Now we are concerned with web design and the search, trying to make our customers' buying experience as simple and intuitive as possible. The vaping marketplace has a whole different set of rules when it comes to selling both wholesale and retail vaping paraphernalia online. And our maketing approach is different from working in a non profit. However back in 2009, ActevaRSVP was a great break through tool and I applaud Acteva's software deveolemnt team for creating it for the Salesforce AppExchange. So no for a nostalgic trip back to 2009.

Why ActevaRSVP

Before ActevaRSVP, your options for managing attendee participation were limited. You could use the Salesforce Mass Email function to send invitations to leads and contacts, but you had no way of knowing which invitees accepted or confirmed their participation.

Or perhaps you could go back and forth on email and telephone, and then use a word processor or spreadsheet to manually keep track of RSVPs and disjointed follow-up activities.

Another alternative might be to employ a separate online service such as Evite. Still, this requires manually importing the invitees as well as learning a new service that may not be appropriate for business.
