Workflow and
Publishing Controls
Putting together an effective calendar
sounds simple until you try to do it. Unless your office is responsible
for all of your organization's activities and events, your biggest
headache is getting the information you need for your calendar.
If a department has gone through the effort to list its event on
its own web pages it could be tough to get the same information
reformatted for your use. Moreover, either you or the presenting
department could easily overlook an important "hook" that
might help sell the event to potential audiences.
At best, your calendars are always incomplete, with information
that is insufficient or, at worst, missing altogether. Once your
site visitors catch on to your calendar's shortcomings, they'll
stop using it and your reputation and image will suffer. Your web
visitors will learn to seek out lower-level pages first, pages where
you may not be able to enforce your organization's overall identity
and brand.
Many Hands Make a Lighter Load
Myxa's eventDB is intentionally designed to streamline your workflow,
making it easier to gather the data you need to publish an effective
calendar on the web. Using a simple web form, anyone can enter information
into eventDB's powerful database. The information can be changed,
updated, or fleshed out at any time.
You no longer have to enter the same information over and over again
for different web pages because Myxa's eventDB makes the event data
available to all page views and searches. Plus, you get better data,
and you get it faster. The data entry fields prompt presenters to
include descriptions and extras that drive interest and attendance
for their events.
No Loss of Control
Even with multiple sources of data input, you always retain the
option to review, approve, and determine when to publish the information
to the web.
Success is the Best Reward
Presenters are encouraged to manage their own event data when they
see how widely available it becomes. You spend much less time tracking
down event information. Myxa's eventDB makes the workflow work for
you!
