Pro Tips: Hosting a Member Meetup
Before the event
Choose a date 🗓️
- We’ve hosted events Wednesday-Fridays so far and have had great turn out!
- Try to plan 2-3 weeks in advance
Choose a location 📍
- Some ideas: coffeeshops, bars, restaurants, breweries, cafes, parks.
- Try to select a venue that will allow for great conversation, that's centrally located, and can accommodate 15-20+ people.
- Plan ahead by making a reservation.
During the event
- Arrive early! (We recommend ~15 mins before the start)
- Let your server know your budget so they can flag if/when you’re approaching
- Introduce yourself with a photo of you/the location you can be found at in the Slack channel so members can find you easily!
- Order food for the group around 30 mins in - depending on the size of the group, it is usually easier to have a family-style or appetizer selection
- Take some photos/videos to share in slack and on social 🙂
After the event
- Fill out this form to submit feedback and request reimbursement, if applicable.
