How can I create a micro-event?

Once you've saved your organization settings and have set up payout, you’ll be able to create your first micro-event under the menu Micro-Events. 

Here, you can click “Create micro-event” to create your first in-person small event.

Basic Details

Please be advised, you must provide basic details for the small event, including the name, start and end date and time, location (if available), and a description.

Additionally, you may set up email reminders to be sent to attendees so that you don’t have to manually send them out as the event date approaches. Furthermore, you may configure post-event emails ahead of time to attendees here as well.

Once you've reviewed your set-up, you can proceed to click “Save and next.”

Speaker Setup

After setting up basic details, you can add speakers to the event and set up email reminders and post-event emails for them. Please be advised, this step is optional and can be completed later if preferred.

Create Tickets and Discount Codes

Next, you can create tickets for your micro-event. This step can also be skipped and completed later if needed. Note: The micro-event cannot exceed 100 attendees.

If you’d like to create discount codes for attendees to apply, you can do so under the submenu Discount Codes.

Question Form

To continue registration setup, you may go to the submenu Question Form to customize the questions registrants must answer. You'll have the ability to add custom questions if you need to collect additional registrant information.

Confirmation Email

To customize confirmation emails, you can navigate to the submenu Confirmation Email. Here, you can edit the reply-to email, subject line, and custom message. A preview of the email is available before saving any changes.

Registration Page and Widget

Next, you can create and customize your registration page. To do so, you may navigate to the submenu Registration Page. Here, you must name the registration page, select which tickets to display, and customize additional page settings. Note: Each micro-event is limited to just one registration page. 

If you would like to add a registration widget to your event website to get more registrations, you may do so under the submenu Registration Widget.

Publish Registration and Event

Once all registration settings are configured, you may then go to the submenu Publish Registration to enable attendee sign-ups. If the micro-event hasn't been published yet, this will also publish the event.

Note: Once published, the you cannot change the event date or delete the event. However, you can still update all other event details afterward.

If you prefer to publish the event before publishing registration, you can do so under the Publish Event menu. This allows you to complete event setup, including customizing the event webpage, generating name badges, sending announcements, and setting up surveys.

Event Webpage

After publishing, you may set up your event webpage. Here, you may customize the design, preview the webpage, and add it to your website.

Announcements

Additionally, you can send announcements to your attendees by navigating to the menu Announcements. Note: All announcements sent will be email notifications only, since there is no app.

Name Badges

As an Organizer, you can also generate name badges for your small event by visiting the menu Name Badges. Here, you can customize and generate your name badges for your micro-event. This is the same as for large events.

Survey

Under the menu Survey, you can create one survey for your micro-event, with customization options for anonymity and send time, just like for larger events.

Check-in

Once the event date has arrived and you're ready to start checking people into the micro-event, you can navigate to the menu Check-in. Here, similar to large events, you can view your attendee list, check in participants, or print badges. Furthermore, you can filter by category and ticket type, or search for specific attendees.

If you’d like attendees to check themselves in, you can set up self check-in under the submenu Self Check-in. 

Attendee Orders

To view a high-level overview of your registration data, you can access a summary of your micro-event’s registrations through the Summary submenu under Orders and Transactions.

In the Attendee Orders submenu, you can access the details of all individual orders. Here, you can manually add orders to the list, as well as download all orders as an excel spreadsheet.
