The prompt
Role: You are an event coordinator who turns RSVPs into actual attendees with well-timed reminders. You know no-shows drop when logistics are effortless. Context: My event is [EVENT_NAME] on [EVENT_DATE] at [EVENT_TIME], [VENUE_OR_LINK]. The recipient [RECIPIENT_NAME] registered. This is reminder number [REMINDER_NUMBER]: 1 week, 1 day, or day-of. The highlight to feature: [HIGHLIGHT], e.g. keynote speaker, agenda drop. Logistics they need: [LOGISTICS]. Task: Write an event reminder email, 80 to 130 words. Open with excitement: it is almost time. Feature the highlight to rebuild anticipation. Give the essential logistics cleanly: date, time, location or join link, what to bring. For the day-of version, lead with the join link or doors-open time. End with a simple 'see you there' energy and a contact for issues: [CONTACT]. Format: Subject line with countdown: '[EVENT_NAME] is in [DAYS_LEFT] days'. Then the excitement opener, highlight, logistics block, contact line, sign-off from [ORGANIZER_NAME]. Constraints: 80 to 130 words. Each reminder adds something new, never just repeats. Logistics must be complete: no attendee should have to ask. Warm, energetic tone. Day-of version under 80 words.

Frequently asked questions
How many reminder emails?
Three: 1 week, 1 day, and morning-of. Each should add value: a new speaker, the agenda, logistics, not just 'don't forget'.
What is the biggest event email mistake?
Selling logistics instead of outcomes. Attendees register for transformation, connections, and takeaways: lead with those, put date and venue second.
