Struggling with low attendance? Use Events in Beekeeper!

If you’ve ever tried organizing an event for a frontline workforce, you already know the struggle.

You put in the effort — announcements, emails, flyers — but when the day comes, attendance is frustratingly low. Managers scramble to remind their teams, last-minute no-shows throw everything off, and you’re left wondering if anyone even saw the invite in the first place.

The problem isn’t that frontline employees don’t want to show up. It’s that the tools for managing events weren’t built for them.

The real reason frontline employees miss events

For office workers, attending a meeting or training session is as easy as clicking “Accept” on a calendar invite. But for frontline teams, it’s a completely different story.

Most companies still rely on outdated, disconnected tools to get the word out:

• Flyers on bulletin boards → Easily ignored
• Email invites → Most frontline workers don’t even have a company email
• Group chats and manual reminders → Too much effort, too easy to forget

And when employees don’t get timely reminders or an easy way to RSVP, attendance suffers. Organizers spend too much time chasing people down, and last-minute no-shows make planning a nightmare.

We heard these frustrations again and again in customer calls, surveys, and product requests. So, we built a solution.

Introducing Events in Beekeeper: A smarter way to bring people together

Events in Beekeeper is designed for the way frontline teams actually communicate. No emails, no manual tracking — just seamless event management inside the app they already use.

Here’s what makes it different:

• Invite the right teams → Target employees by location, department, or role — so only the relevant people get notified.
• Track RSVPs instantly → No more guessing who’s coming. Get clear visibility into attendance.
• Automate reminders → Employees get notified before the event — so they actually show up.
