Meeting Registrations are important because they help us reach and capture information from a broader audience. By using the standard method to schedule a meeting, you need to personally know participant emails in order to send them the invitation directly. The standard method also fails to offer any kind of record for who registered and attended the training.
By using meeting registrations, we can offer a more professional approach to how we invite new people into our work and ministry.
We are also able to maintain a record of those who have registered, and cross reference it with those who actually attended the training. In order to count training as reach, training registrations are considered a best practice.
Setting up a Meeting Registration is very simple. Let's take a look at how we get it done!
This will make all participants register before being part of the zoom meeting.
If you notice, under invite attendees, it will was "people are required to register." To share the registration invitation, click on "copy invitation."
Click "Edit" under registration options.
You can choose to receive a notification email every time someone new registers.
First name and email address are always required. You can also add custom questions on the next tab.
Under email settings you can adjust the email contact, and edit the confirmation email that is sent out to participants.
On the branding tab you can add a banner and a logo to make the registration seem more appealing and match your brand.
Note: To add a banner and logo, Zoom requires custom dimensions. Read them carefully.
