One of the questions that I get asked often is how to invite clients and prospects to an event. Most people are familiar with evite.com. Evite.com is more of a personal invitation system for things like parties, showers, etc. I point people to EventBrite.com for handling the invitation and guest list functions for a business event. The service is free if you are not charging per ticket for entry to the event. If you ARE charging per ticket, EventBrite.com charges a reasonable 99 cents per ticket plus 2.5% of the ticket value (credit card processing fees)
There is an EventBrite connector for SalesForce.com!
