This post and the accompanying email are confusingly written and seem to create more questions than it answers.

Is the Community Day only for those attending Retail Fest? Ie. does it require a Retail Fest ticket?
Is the Community Day for existing merchants or potential new customers? It sounds like all of the content is sales based ("hands on demonstrations"). How is this relevant to existing customers?
Doesn't this event clash with the Retail Fest pre-conference workshops? Many major Maropost merchants are either attending or presenting at these workshops, especially since they were free with early bird tickets.
What's the $200 off? A Retail Fest ticket? The email isn't clear at all, and has put many people off the Community Day (initially me included) since it sounds like a paid event. The email didn't need to be yet another ad for Retail Fest.

Overall the communication around this event is really poor so far. You'll have a much better response from merchants and the community if it is explained better.

Hi Erik,

Thanks for the feedback, I'll pass that on to the team so we can ensure we are more clear in the future.

To answer your queries:

The Community Day is free for anyone to attend - you don't need a Retail Fest ticket to come along
The Community Day is for existing merchants, although we certainly wouldn't be upset if potentials came too! The point of this day is to share updates and information with our users so they understand who Maropost is, what our vision for the future is, and the products we are so passionate about. You'll find an agenda on the page: https://events.bizzabo.com/maropostcommunityevent/agenda
We understand the timing isn't convenient for everyone, and we apologise, however we will be there for the whole day and people are welcome to join us any time.
The $200 discount is for the price of a Retail Fest ticket. Just to reiterate, Community Day is free for all Maropost merchants (you would need a ticket to attend any of the other Retail Fest events) but we'd love you to stay with us for the whole event.

Hopefully that has cleared up some of the confusion, and if there's anything else I can do please let me know.

Thanks Kel. Your description of the day sounds very different to the invite. Hopefully you haven't put too many merchants off.

The agenda you linked to is blank:

Hi Erik, that looks like you've clicked on the details for one of the individual sections of the day. If you click "Back" you'll see the full agenda.

I understand we're still finalising the exact content for each section, so feel free to check back anytime for updates.
