Doors open: a new office, a studio, a school or a shop showing its space. The hours guests can drop in, the address with a map, where to park and a reply card.
Opening it to the public? See Event Hub.
A short guide
Say what is new and offer a clear welcome: “Come and see our new office, meet the team and enjoy a bite to eat.” Give the date, the hours as a drop-in window, the address and parking. Mention any set moment such as a ribbon-cutting, and add a reply date if food depends on it.
Usually an RSVP isn’t required, since guests come and go during the set hours. Hosts often ask for one anyway to plan catering and staff, in which case they should say “RSVP appreciated” and give a date. If you do not need a count, write “No reply needed, just drop by.”
Three to four weeks ahead works for most businesses, with a follow-up the week of the event. If you are inviting press or local officials, contact them six weeks out, since calendars for officials fill early. Avoid dates that clash with month-end, trade shows or your customers’ busy seasons wherever you can.
Start with customers, partners and suppliers, then add neighbouring businesses, referral sources and team members’ families if it suits the mood. Local chambers of commerce and press are worth inviting when you are opening or moving. Since guests come and go, you can invite more people than the space could hold at one time.
