messages to just people who have that specific tag in their profile.

Pathable FAQs How long does it take to build and deploy a Pathable community?
In many cases, it can be as few as several days, but typically the time from contract to launch is ~2 weeks, which includes client review and design iteration.
Who owns the data? You, the customer, own the data. Pathable hosts it for you on our secure servers, but
will never independently contact or market to your attendees. How long does the site work for?
Typically, a Pathable site is launched ~2 months prior to the event itself and continues to live for 1 year following (at which time, for annual events, we recommend rolling your community into the following year’s site). These timings are flexible, though, and can be tailored to your event’s needs.
Why wouldn’t we just use Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn? Pathable offers a branded, safe community for your event that you own. You don’t get
to control your brand or the sponsors or ads that appear on other services. For example, inappropriate ads, or ads for competitors might show up elsewhere.
Is Pathable expensive? No, Pathable is very affordable. In fact, in many cases, a single “Community
Sponsor” can more than off-set the initial out-of-pocket costs for Pathable. Pathable has proven ROI in terms of increased attendance through social marketing tools provided and improved attendee satisfaction, which translates into increased renewals.
If your attendees are coming to network, can you afford not to provide a solution?
