Abstract
A method of alerting a user of a scheduled event on a network includes transmitting a promotion to a first consumer premises equipment (“CPE”), the promotion being associated with event scheduling metadata, and causing the event scheduling metadata to be transmitted from the first CPE to a second CPE based on a selection of the promotion at the first CPE. The method further includes causing a reminder message to be transmitted from the second CPE to the first CPE based on the event scheduling metadata.
