Be clear about what you offer
If your potential clients don’t understand what your event is about, they won’t sign up, no matter how great it is.
Make your invitation as clear and easy to understand as possible. Ask yourself:
Make your invitation as clear and easy to understand as possible. Ask yourself:
- What will people learn or experience?
- Who is this for — beginners, advanced, or all levels?
- When and where is the event happening?
- How much does it cost?
You don’t need a long sales pitch. A short, friendly description is often all it takes to spark interest. And if you’ve got a great photo or video from a past event, use it — show people what they can look forward to.
Tip: Record a quick invite video or Instagram reel where you introduce yourself and explain why your event is worth joining. People are much more likely to book when they feel a personal connection.

The easier it is to book, the more likely people will grab their spot while they’re still excited.
