Sendomatic E-invitation Service Leaps Into Mobile Marketing, And Beyond, With JustKnow

First-Ever Send to Phone+ Functionality Offered by Leading Online Invitation and Announcement Service.

For Immediate Release

SAN FRANCISCO/EWORLDWIRE/Oct. 23, 2008 --- Sendomatic ('http://www.sendomatic.com'), the leading 100 percent advertisement-free online invitation service, announces the addition of the justKnow ('http://www.justKnow.com') Send to Phone+ capability. Leapfrogging competitors, Sendomatic's introduction of justKnow gives users multiple self-send options not available on other invitation sites, which offer only basic send-to-phone (Web content sent as text message to mobile phones only, delivered at an unspecified time).

Multiple self-send options are standard with justKnow and comprise the "Plus" in Send to Phone+. From one easy, streamlined interface, attendees can immediately self-send their customized, attendee-specific information (e.g., volunteered to bring appetizers, help with set-up, etc.) along with the general event details (date, time, contact, address and RSVP information) to their:

. Mobile phones as text messages (with convenient Web links for Web-enabled phones)
. Online calendars
. Telephones as voice calls
. E-mails (whitelisted delivery)

In addition, justKnow offers the breakthrough "Know Later" option where users may schedule a future delivery of event details as a reminder. Event details are useful to have on popular devices and applications used by consumers, and justKnow elevates that usefulness by keeping event information available not only where users want it but when they need it. "Knowledge is most powerful when it's perfectly timed to an actionable moment, whether it's to buy chips for a party or RSVPing to the invitation," said Jennifer Sitko, president of Sendomatic. "With justKnow, our users precisely schedule event information to be delivered at the time they know they'll be able to respond to it."

Response and attendance rates are high with Sendomatic, and the addition of justKnow continues to increase those rates while further reducing RSVP management. The calendaring feature of justKnow is very popular with corporate clients, and all users find the myriad send options a smart convenience. "Though justKnow is highly sophisticated in marketing a brand (in Sendomatic's case, a host marketing an event), end-users appreciate the ease of use and inherent respect for their time," said SparcPlug Inc.'s CEO, Matt Parzych. "We know people are busy and overwhelmed with information, so we designed justKnow to hit all the communication spots, providing only the information they want, all from an easy, uncomplicated interface that helps everyone keep important events and information on the forefront of their minds."

There are no downloads or installations for Sendomatic's users to use justKnow. Just a click from the online invitation launches the justKnow interface which lets users send themselves the event information. Whether they choose to Know Now, Know Later (or both), everyone will justKnow.
