Networking event invitations
Spend less time planning and more time connecting at your next event when you send networking and meet-and-greet invitations with Paperless Post. Our collection of professional invitation designs fits all types of events, whether you’re hosting a large networking conference or a casual meet-and-greet in the community. Send a modern design for a cocktail party or an illustrated invitation for an art auction via email, text, or shareable link. Then, use our guest management tools to track opens and RSVPs as they roll in and follow up with guests.
Networking and meet-and-greet invitation templates for any occasion
The perfect invitation sets the tone for your event, which is why we have plenty of options that are just right for you. Pick a fresh, modern invitation that shows your company is on the cutting edge, or try a cheerful and vibrant design if you’re networking with neighbors or introducing your company to a new market. Catch the eye of your guests with an artful invitation by Kelly Wearstler, whose sophisticated yet still playful approach works for nearly any occasion. Ready to unveil your latest project? Create some buzz and tease the debut of a new product or service with a launch party invitation or viewing party invitation to match the vibe of your special screening. Or treat the team and your VIPs to an exclusive gathering to express your thanks for their support this year.
Once you find the perfect business networking invitation, customize it with different fonts, colors, and your company’s logo. Add a Travel Block with directions to your networking event venue and parking instructions. A Sponsors Block will highlight those who helped support your event. After invitations are sent, add Guest Tags to organize your guest list into categories and use the Paperless Post App to check in guests as they arrive on the big day.
When to hold a business networking event?
Networking events are easy to host throughout the year, but the best timing depends on your clients and industry. Choose a date and time when most of your potential attendees will be available. Weeknights tend to work best for business networking events so people can attend after work.
Give yourself enough time to promote the event. Use your company’s social media accounts to spread the word and build interest by sharing teasers, creating countdowns, and giving sneak peeks. Encourage guests to share your event with their networks to expand your reach.
What to include in a networking invitation?
The foundation for any well-written networking event invitation includes who’s hosting, what the event is for, the date, time, and location. Any additional information you include will depend on the type of meet-and-greet you’re planning.
If it’s a laid-back get-together for new employees at the office, let guests know what’s on the menu (or enable Guest Questions to gather dietary restrictions). If it’s a larger event with entertainment, speeches, and workshops, add your itinerary to a Schedule Block so guests know what to expect throughout the day. A Speakers Block is another key addition where you can provide more information about the speakers who are coming. When you send your next invitation with Paperless Post, it’s all about the details—and we’ve got them fully covered.
