Promotion Spuds

You automatically create this group of customizable Promotion spuds each time you publish a calendar in Trumba® Connect.

Promotion spuds are designed to promote events from pages throughout your website. By adding Promotion spuds to your home and other pages, you highlight your role as a local events resource and drive traffic to the pages where full calendars appear.
