Event Planning with VolunteerSpot! #SignUpSpot

This event planning post featuring VolunteerSpot was sponsored by VolunteerSpot and Acorn Influence. However, all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own. 

VSpot_logoEvent planning is the 10th circle of Hell. Seriously. Dante’s Inferno should have devoted a chapter to event planning. It’s that bad. Between playing phone tag and leaving messages to trying to organize the event because people didn’t get the messages, event planning is nightmare. VolunteerSpot turns that nightmare of a chaos into an easy to manage well oiled machine.

Event Planning Isn’t a Hassle Anymore

I love to celebrate my children’s milestones with parties. Big parties. Parties that have more than one cake and blow up houses and streamers and all that fun stuff. And why not? They’re only young once. The thing is, parties that big require lots of planning. My family often helps me, but as reliable as they are, sometimes it’s hard to get in touch with them. We all have lives, and even with cell phones, it can still be difficult to touch base with people who are on the go. That’s why I was excited to give VolunteerSpot’s event planning app a try.12065477_10153611366839356_3968040356926349686_n

VolunteerSpot – Event Planning Just Got Easier

With VolunteerSpot, event planning just got easier. I had the chance to give it a try for a potluck dinner, and I can say that I’ll definitely be using it for my next big event.  It was so easy to sign up via my email or Facebook, put all the information down, and then sign up. In no time at all, a potluck dinner was planned for later this week!Screen Shot 2015-10-06 at 9.17.18 AMScreen Shot 2015-10-06 at 9.19.12 AMScreen Shot 2015-10-06 at 9.19.28 AM

I’ll also be recommending it to my daughter’s dance team coach too for this upcoming season. It just makes event planning so much easier. With this app, every aspect of event planning is made more easy to accomplish, from donations to forms to contacting other parents or group organizers. If you have any sort of event planning in your future, give VolunteerSpot a try. It will certainly save you a headache!! Parent recommended for sure!

    VolunteerSpot sounds great. I’m always planning one thing or another, and this sounds like it would make that SSSOOO much easier.

    A system like this would be great for my kids’ class parties and events. I love that it also sends reminders since managing so much tends to be tough.

    Oh my goodness that sounds like such a time saver. This would be so awesome for planning school parties.

    What a neat idea for an app. I think my son’s classroom would benefit from this. It would make his teacher’s life easier I’m sure.

    We use VolunteerSpot at my son’s school. It is great for organizing people to do certain things!

    Volunteerspot really sounds like the way to make planning easier. One potluck we went to had 30 families bring spaghetti. When someone walked through the door with fried chicken, they got a big round of applause. This computer program could have saved a lot of duplication.

    This app sounds like a great idea. You could use it for big family functions or work functions where a team of people are supposed to work together.

    What a genius app! I’ve had years of coordinating volunteers for school functions and it has been loads of emailing and following up on the phone. This is perfect for those types of things.

  12. Crystal says

    October 7, 2015 at 11:42 am

    That does make it easier! I know a lot of parents would love to help out but it’s hard to get everyone on the same page.

    I just used this for the first time this week. Our daughter is in a play and that is what they use for volunteer sign ups. Works great!

    I think I would really like this app. Would be so helpful to get organized and help with the planning.

    I do a lot of functions and parties, so this would be perfect for me! Thanks for sharing this cool organization tool

    This sounds like n app we need. I am always running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off while planning an event. This could help get me organized!

    That sounds like such a cool app! I’m gonna have to check it out. 🙂
