Organizers keep asking for a simple playbook to get from “idea” to “live community” without a dev sprint. Here is exactly how we see teams launch on Mevent Events in minutes.
1) Draft your event basics
Pick a clear title, add a short description, and choose a memorable share link (e.g., app.mevent.io/summit-2025). Decide if you want approvals turned on from day one.
2) Build the onboarding flow
- Fields: Add required text fields (company, role, “why join?”) and set character limits.
- Checkboxes: Create role/track selectors (Startup, Investor, Mentor, Operator).
- Social: Toggle LinkedIn or X links; make them required if you want extra trust.
- Photos: Ask for profile photos if you want recognizable profiles in the directory.
3) Approvals and capacity
If you need curation, keep approvals on. Starter covers 10 participants for free. Ultimate scales to thousands with tailored onboarding—talk to sales for pricing. If your plan lapses, existing data stays but new sign-ups and messaging pause until you reactivate.
4) Go live and share
Share the link. Participants sign up with email/Google/LinkedIn (you choose). If approvals are on, they land in “awaiting approval” after completing their profile.
5) Connect people, not inboxes
Approved participants can search the directory, send connection requests, and DM once connected. Organizers can broadcast updates to everyone without hunting through email threads.
