Digitizing The Sophisticates, Inc. – Savannah, Georgia Chapter Annual Weekend Experience

Challenge

The Sophisticates, Inc. – Savannah, Georgia Chapter hosts an Annual Weekend filled with networking, celebrations, and empowerment. However, their previous event registration and management system was outdated and inefficient, leading to several challenges:

Manual paper-based registration, requiring checks and mailed forms, causing delays and errors.
Limited vendor visibility and scheduling, preventing attendees from pre-booking services such as makeup appointments.
No real-time event data tracking, making it difficult for the internal team to manage registrations and logistics efficiently.
