Promoting an Event Using a Program

This task assumes that you have already created the events, campaigns and offers and that these entities are associated (such as associating an offer to a campaign and an event to a campaign). In most cases, users invite contacts or prospects using an email offer. Siebel Marketing also supports other types of offers, such as Direct Mail, Fax, or SMS. However, the automatic embedding of the Siebel Events Web site URL only works with an email offer.

The following procedure shows how to promote an event using a program.
