Your Project Timeline You and your Zerista consultant will develop a project. Here are some guidelines to use when planning.
Your Event Basics Please complete the following to make sure your Zerista consultant has the basics about your event.
MapsContract specific. Check with your Zerista contact. There are 2 types of maps: Exhibition and Venue. Maps can be images (great for session-based events) or interactive images (awesome for large expo halls). What Zerista needs: • Maps provided 2 weeks in advance before expected availability.Please do not send the map until the floor plan is final; all locations on the map are known. Assignment of locations can change after the map is provided. • A clean PDF of each map.Zerista uses the maps as they are provided. We do not remove or add objects to the maps. We suggest removing any unneeded information, such as locations of power outlets.
Invitations & Reminders You invite attendees to use the Zerista platform through an invitation sent from the system. We HIGHLY suggest using plain text emails to minimize spam filter issues. After sending invitations to attendees, you can send reminders every 2 days. We will use the same text for the reminders as in the invitation. PRO TIP: Our clients find integrating messages about the platform with their other marketing collateral increases the adoption and usage of the platform.
Invitation Example To help you maximize your time at the event, we'd like to welcome you to the official networking platform and mobile app for <conference name>.

Going MobileContract specific. Check with your Zerista contact. Please visit the following sites for guidelines on creating images for your mobile application: • Iphone/Ipad: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/IconsImages/IconsImages.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40006556-CH14-SW2 • Android phone:http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design.html NOTE: Apple requires a user account as part of their approval process.

Data IntegrationsContract specific. Check with your Zerista contact.
Getting Info on the Platform For attendees: • The minimum information needed for each user is a first name, last name, and email. • The unique identifier for users is their email; only one user can be associated with an email in the Zerista system. Consider communicating and enforcing this rule during registration. There are multiple ways you can get information into the Zerista system. Your Zerista consultant will show you how to upload data into the system during admin training. Review the following tips and hints to prep your data. For exhibitors: • You can add exhibitor contacts to an exhibitor listing. To include an exhibitor contact, first load the contact in the system then add them as a contact. • Contacts can update exhibitor information, including logos. Consider uploading logos as a service for your premium sponsors.
Broadcast Messages As a moderator, you can send additional emails, called broadcast messages, to attendees, exhibitors, and speakers. Please consider integrating these broadcast messages into your overall marketing plan. You can use broadcast messages to thank sponsors, communicate changes in schedule, or to promote a specific session at your event. These emails can be text or html and can target attendees based on attendee type (attendee, speaker, exhibitor), interest tags, and account status. Your Zerista Project Consultant will review how to send broadcast messages during your Admin training.
