5 COMMON SIGN UPS TO CREATE (THAT MAKE LIFE EASIER)

Posted by Steven Borders







You’ve probably used our site to sign up for an for an event or even to create
sign ups and organize your group. But have you used it to simplify all of your
group organizing activities? At SignUpGenius, we see all sorts of ways that
people use our site to simplify event, volunteer and group management. Just to
keep you in the loop, we wanted to share the top five sign ups you should
consider creating in the future.


POTLUCK, PARTY AND MEAL SIGN UPS

Okay, maybe you’ve already created a potluck sign up on our site. But what about
organizing a party, or perhaps recruiting meal sign ups for a family in need? In
these cases, our site is perfect for creating slots to request volunteers for
party items and meals. A meal sign up for a family in need or anyone welcoming a
new baby is an easy way to make a big difference.

If you are organizing a meal sign up, be sure to require a comment and specify
that participants need to enter the meal they plan to bring in that field. This
way, everyone can see the dishes that are being delivered and can avoid too many
of the same meal.

Plus, our site will send automatic reminders to participants. You can set the
number of days in advance for when you want reminder emails to go to each
participant. With our hide past dates feature, you can automatically hide meal
sign up times that occurred already to keep current listings at the top.




APPOINTMENT BOOKING AND MEETING SIGN UPS

Whether you are booking appointments for teacher conferences, coordinating
auditions or booking photo session appointments, a sign up is a perfect
solution. It’s much easier than attempting to coordinate times with multiple
individuals over email or spreadsheets.

Enter the dates and times of appointments or use our tool to generate recurring
dates or times and voila — you are ready to book appointments. Participants can
select appointment openings and sign up at their convenience.

Worried about people canceling their appointment at the last minute without
notifying you? No problem. With our sign up locking feature, automatically lock
appointments in advance to prevent last-minute deletions. Plus, the locking
feature can also prevent last-minute sign ups.

Best of all, with our calendar sync feature, you can sync appointments to your
personal calendar. When someone signs up, the appointment will automatically be
added to your personal calendar.




VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT SIGN UPS

If you are an organizer of people or events, you likely need volunteers. Whether
you are coordinating chaperones for a field trip, volunteers for a concession
stand or shifts for a nonprofit, our sign ups make it easy. Create specific
volunteer roles and time shifts for all of your needs.

Share the sign up on social media, post it on a website or email the link to
spread the word about your volunteer needs and boost recruitment. With a sign
up, there’s no need to call, text or email specific people in search of
volunteers. Simply broadcast the sign up.

Here are some of our product features that make volunteer management easier:

 * We offer volunteer hours reporting across multiple sign ups. This way, you
   can track your volunteers’ hours of service.
 * With our Custom Theme Builder tool, sign ups can be customized to match an
   organization’s branding.
 * You can link the sign up on the organization’s website and with our Back to
   Website button, sign up participants can be directed back to the website once
   they sign up.

Create custom sign up confirmation emails to communicate helpful instructions or
information to volunteers after they complete a sign up. Apply a similar message
to your reminder emails as a way of emphasizing any necessary information to
your participants.




DONATION AND FUNDRAISER SIGN UPS

This is one of our favorite ways to make a big impact with a simple sign up. By
creating a donation sign up, you can appeal to your audience and rally people to
donate needed supplies for a nonprofit or emergency disaster relief. See how one
sign up creator made a big impact by collecting donations for a local nonprofit.

Sign ups are also helpful for collecting needed supplies for a mission trip or
donations for a group gift. Not only can you use a sign up to collect donations,
but you can also recruit volunteers to help organize or deliver supplies to
further help your cause.

If you are planning a fundraising event, it’s easy to organize with an online
sign up. Simply create volunteer shifts or roles and select the maximum number
of volunteers needed for each role. If you need volunteers to work shifts at
varying times, add time slots and assign those to the shifts. You can also
collect money directly on the sign up, with LumaPay, for those wanting to make
financial contributions online.

Genius Tip: Spread the word with these tips for promoting your sign up.




GROUP EVENTS OR EVENT REGISTRATION

There’s a good chance that you are part of some kind of group, from the PTA and
your child’s sports team to your church small group and book club. Organizing
group events with an online sign up takes the pain out of handling attendees or
managing registrations. Simply create an online sign up to serve as a tool for
registering people for an event. Then, the registration process will handle
itself.

Our site is widely used as an event registration tool. You can create a single
registration slot or multiple registration slots to specify types of
registration. For example, you may want to offer half-day versus full-day event
registrations. In this scenario, you would create a distinct slot for each type
of registration. You can even collect money and offer discounts or early bird
specials to those who register in advance.

Like most registrations, you’re going to need some additional information. With
our Custom Question feature, you can create custom question fields for
participants to complete as a part of the registration process.



See? There are all sorts of useful ways that online sign ups make it easy to
coordinate groups and events, beyond what you might normally do. With our
flexible tool and advanced features, you can stay organized and have more time
to connect with your group.

I love SignUpGenius' ease of use and functionality. In just the last few weeks I
have used SignUpGenius to help manage Girl Scout outings, Secret Santa Sign-up,
a potluck, and volunteer opportunity at our preschool. The possibilities are
endless.... I've tried other sign-up websites and find yours by far the best fit
for my purpose.
