Speaker dashboard and communication

The speaker dashboard is the environment where speakers can communicate their preferences, fill in forms and find all relevant information in one central location. Speakers can gain access to their speaker dashboard by sending a mailing to all speakers. Besides that possibility, it is also possible to generate a URL of the speaker dashboard of a specific speaker.

Mailing

Sending a mailing to all speakers is an easy way to keep speakers updated about your event, for example by granting access to their speaker dashboard, by sending their program or just by giving a statement on the latest changes within the event. A mailing to all speakers can be send from 'Speakers', within the Program module. After that, click on 'Send Mailing' to begin composing the mailing.

Properties

Under 'Properties' it is possible to set up the language, sender of the e-mail, name of the sender and the subject of the e-mail.

Attachments

Thereafter it is possible to attach the individual programs of the speakers to the e-mails by selecting this under 'Attachments'.

Content

When adding the content of the e-mail, the placeholder {{dashboard-link}} can be added to give the speaker access to their speaker dashboard. The placeholder creates a link, on which the speaker can click to be redirected to the webpage on which the speaker dashboard is found

Speaker dashboard URL

Next to the possibility to grant access to the speaker dashboard by sending a mailing to the speakers, it is also possible to create a URL for the speaker dashboard of a specific speaker. This can be usefull to grant access to the speaker dashboard in another way than sending a mailing.

A URL of such can be created within 'Speakers' by clicking on the name of the speaker for whom you want to create the URL, whereafter you can click on 'Speaker dashboard URL'. It is then possible to copy the URL or visit the URL directly.
