Event Form for multiple event registrations

Hi,

Is it possible to create a form which enables people to tick to sign up for a number of different events? (They can either chose one of the events or multiple).

How do we then push the sign ups for each event into it's own Salesforce campaign and email the registrant with a confirm that they have signed up?

Thank you in advance!

Jen

Re: Event Form for multiple event registrations

Is it possible to create a form which enables people to tick to sign up for a number of different events? (They can either chose one of the events or multiple).

Of course, why not?

You can use a single multi-valued field like Upcoming Registered Events (and Checkboxes field type) on the form. Just make sure to process the form post data promptly, sorting people into Programs based on {Your field name} [contains]. (The next time they post the same form, the value will be overwritten, but since you're already transformed the values sub-into Program memberships, that's fine.)

How do we then push the sign ups for each event into it's own Salesforce campaign and email the registrant with a confirm that they have signed up?

Concentrate on moving people into Marketo programs. You can sync the Marketo programs to SFDC campaigns using that built-in feature.

Re: Event Form for multiple event registrations

Hi Sanford, If I select an event in the checkbox and come back to the page later, can I have only the event selection filled up automatically based on my last selection? However all other fields such as first name, last name, email, company should be blank.If it is possible, can you please give me details. Thanks

Yes and no. This is the standard Pre-Fill behavior -- just turn on PF for that one field. However, the Pre-Fill feature is changing quite dramatically and you may need to introduce additional code to get what you want: see Important Change to form Prefill and related.
