Keap Automated Attendee Arrival & SMS Check-in Guide

A tactical guide to using SMS triggers in Keap to welcome attendees the moment they scan their ticket on-site.

Real-Time Event Personalization with Keap

The check-in process is the first physical touchpoint of your event. By leveraging Keap's automation with Tixified’s check-in app, you can create a high-tech first impression.

The 'Arrived' Workflow

When a ticket is scanned, Tixified pushes a 'Checked In' status to the Keap contact record. This acts as a goal achievement in your Keap Campaign Builder.

  • Trigger: Tag 'Event_Checked_In' applied.
  • Action 1: Send SMS: 'Welcome, [First Name]! You are now checked in. Here is the link to today's digital program: [Link]'
  • Action 2: Wait 2 hours -> Send SMS: 'Lunch is now being served in Hall B. Check out our sponsor booths!'
  • Action 3: Update Contact Record: Set 'Attendance Status' to 'Present'.

Key Benefits

  • Reduced Paper Waste: Send schedules digitally via SMS.
  • Live Tracking: Know exactly who is in the building for safety and reporting.
  • Revenue Growth: Use SMS to promote on-site merchandise or VIP upgrades.

By using Tixified, you save significantly on overhead. With flat plans from $49/mo and 0% fees, you can reinvest those savings into premium SMS credits for your Keap campaign.
