RSVP management tools and carpooling was a match made in heaven. Interesting developments in the RSVP market!
News is that Eventbrite (which is a great RSVP management tool) and Zoompool (a ridesharing platform) have teamed up.
I guess it was a quite obvious integration path as introducing a ‘Mark Read’ button in Gmail, which, in the same fashion, took way too long.
This is a strong move by Eventbrite in the overcrowded Online RSVP market. I am very curious to see what amiando the European counterpart and my personal favourite will do. In the meanwhile here is the press release.
“Events are a great candidate for ridesharing because attendees generally aim to arrive and leave at roughly the same time,” said Donna Horne, ZoomPool’s co-founder.
“If you’re an event organizer who uses Eventbrite for your conference, business seminar, arts, entertainment or charity event, it makes perfect sense to offer ridesharing to your attendees. It boosts attendance and they’ll love you for it.
As an event attendee, ridesharing with a perfectly matched partner is a great opportunity to make a new social or business acquaintance — who knows where that might lead?”
Brilliant. You'll tweet again when it happens?
This will be like gold dust for those of who live in out of the way places.
Of course they will add a field of “CRB checked” for the UK market?
Jo,
