Through Zapier · List: Event sign-ups
Event sign-ups that make it into Campaign Monitor
A clipboard has to be typed up later, and a web form on a phone loses people before they tap submit. With Textiful, the whole sign-up happens in a text.
Lists for every client’s event
Agencies can give each client their own keyword and list, so every event fills the right audience.
A keyword or a QR code
Say “text DEMO to 33777” from the front of the room, or put a QR code where people can scan it. Either one starts your capture flow.
Give them a reason to sign up
Send your slides, a guide, or a discount in the same flow with handouts.

Questions people ask
Yes. Each Zap watches one flow, so give each event its own flow and Zap. Use a list or a custom field for each event.
No. Leave them empty. Texting your keyword to Textiful isn’t agreement to receive texts from your Campaign Monitor account.
No. The short codes 33777 and 55444 work in the US only, and QR codes text those same numbers, so Textiful is for audiences in the US.
