A Brand New Way to Organize & Manage your Home Events Perfect designs. Reliable delivery. Extensive event control. Full mobile access. Ad-free Invites. Easy to use! PurpleTrail � Is it ready for the challenge? PurpleTrail is an online event management and planning service that helps you organize events � big and small. Evite has become synonymous with online invitations. However, according to Wired and Time magazine, this ten year old service �sucks!�. Evite has been accused of everything from spamming users with unwanted emails to being ad-choked, outdated and slow, not to mention the lack of improvements and new features. Yet, it is still used by 5 million people every month in the United States alone. PurpleTrail is aimed at addressing the gaps in the online event planning and management space and is designed to be, just like the iPhone, a pleasure to use. Why online invitation management? If you have ever hosted a party or an event with more than a few people in the guest list, you already know the answer to this question. It can be quite a hassle to manage so many invitations, guest responses, place and time suggestions, etc. In addition, since most of our communication has moved online, a tool that handles all of this and reaches people quickly and reliably is a necessity. PurpleTrail makes sending invitations, collecting responses, sharing ideas and photos, and sending reminders easy and efficient, not to mention the cost savings of using such a tool. What�s special about PurpleTrail? It is a �brand new� way to organize and manage parties, get-togethers, events and meetings. With its fresh perspective, PurpleTrail brings together some of the best features and experiences to help you easily manage your event.

Reliable Invites using Delivery Central Presence Enabled Invitation Management Using PurpleTrail�s �Delivery Central� technology, you can now send invitations, reminders, and personal notes across multiple mediums, namely email, print, SMS, voice and social networks like Facebook. Delivery Central provides centralized messaging and ensures secure and reliable delivery of invitations. It offers a comprehensive set of event management and invitation tracking options that puts you squarely in the driving seat of your event. Delivery Central also enables you to easily track your invitations: which ones got delivered securely, when did the guests open them, when did they last view the event page, what is their current RSVP response, etc. PurpleTrail is the first �presence enabled� invitation management service with group messaging at its core. If that sounds geeky, think of it as a service that allows you to easily interact with the host and other guests in real-time for all the pre-event planning and excitement. You can see who is currently online and have a chat instantly, or leave messages for later. Build Consensus for Time and Place PurpleTrail�s unique consensus module helps you to decide on place and time for your event. Say good-bye to the mess around group emails! Rich consensus building tools are part of all PurpleTrail events. As an organizer you have full control over what guests can vote on or even if they can suggest an option themselves.
