Welcome to Sign-up Sheet!

Sign-up Sheet is Doodle’s newest scheduling feature. In this article, we will cover the basic steps for creating, sharing, and tracking your sign-up sheet. In addition to this introduction, we have a large collection of comprehensive articles to help you get the most out of Doodle.

Creating your sign-up sheet

Creating your sign-up sheet is easy and only takes a couple of minutes! There are three main steps:

  1. Enter the basic sign-up sheet details, like the name of the event and location

  2. Provide dates and times for each session

  3. Share the sign-up sheet to begin collecting enrollment

Enter the event details

Let your audience know about the event by providing a name for the event, a brief description of the event, and the location. You can even meet virtually using Google Meet, Zoom, or Webex!

Create your sessions

Indicate the session details, like the date, start time and enrollment cap, repeating the process for each session you want to offer. Apply any special settings you might need, such as limiting how many sessions they can choose.

Add questions to your sign-up sheet

You can add unlimited free response questions to your sign-up sheet. Now you can gather vital information prior to hosting your event to ensure that everything goes smoothly. You can make your questions optional or required for your participants. Once you have added all your questions, click 'Create and share'.

Share the sign-up sheet

With your sign-up sheet created, you are now ready to share the link. Click the ‘Copy link’ button and paste the sign-up sheet link into an email or share it via text, WhatsApp, and more!

Your audience participates in the sign-up sheet

The people you invite to participate in your sign-up sheet will click on the link you provide and sign up for the session(s) that work best for them. Responding to a sign-up sheet only takes a few seconds, so you will quickly see your sign-up sheet fill up!

This is an example of the sign-up sheet participation experience:

Keep track of your sign-up sheet enrollment

You can quickly and easily track your sign-up sheet enrollment by each available session directly from your Doodle dashboard. Click into a session to manage it.

That’s it!

Each person who signs up for a session will automatically receive an email with all the information they need to show up on time and prepared. And if you connect your calendar, we will send a calendar event invite that they can add to their own calendar.
