Use Cases & Campaigns

Can I mail invitations to executives for a private dinner during a conference?

Yes. A private dinner is one of the best uses of a personalized invitation: the list is short, every guest matters, and a physical card feels more fitting than another calendar invite. Mail it four to six weeks ahead, sign it from your most senior host, and link a unique QR code to a simple RSVP page.

The Yotru answer

Senior people get a lot of event invitations by email, and most are easy to ignore. A personal card from a named host, about a small dinner during a conference they are already attending, stands out. You choose the guests, Yotru finds any missing addresses, each card is personalized to the guest, and the QR code takes them to an RSVP page.

Planning the guest list

Mix a few existing customers with the prospects you most want to meet. Customers make the room more credible and the conversation more natural. Keep the table small enough that everyone can talk, and confirm the exact venue by email once someone says yes.

How we look at it at Yotru

This is a small, high-value mailing, so every card should read as personal. We sign each card with a handwritten-style signature from the host, and the follow-up should come from the same person. A short personal email or call a week after the card lands usually settles the RSVP.

Frequently asked questions

Four to six weeks before the conference. Delivery usually takes about a week but can take 2 to 3 weeks, and senior calendars fill early.

You can, or you can share it after they confirm. Many hosts keep the venue for the confirmation to keep the guest list private.
