When a Waitlisted Volunteer Turns Down a Shift

Casey wants to volunteer, but can't take the 9–11 welcome shift you offered. Keep Casey on the list for a shift they can do.

In Proximatic, declining a waitlist offer leaves Casey on the event waitlist. You can offer the morning place to someone else without asking Casey to join again or remembering to rescue their name from a declined-message thread.

When Alex accepts the morning offer, Alex joins the welcome roster. Casey is still there to consider if afternoon packing opens. Offer that job with its own hours; if Casey accepts, both openings have people who agreed to the actual work.

This is particularly useful when you're filling different kinds of shifts. Someone who can't arrive for setup may be exactly the person you need for cleanup. Keeping their interest attached to the event gives you another chance to make a useful match.

You choose whom to ask and which job to offer. Proximatic keeps track of who's still waiting and adds people to the roster when they accept, so you can keep recruiting without maintaining another list.

Create your event and keep willing volunteers in the picture.
