Your adoring fans can follow you by clicking the follow button that appears on your host profile at the bottom of your event page.
2. Agree to the marketing opt-in
Ticket buyers will automatically become your followers if they agree to the marketing opt-in during the ticket buyer journey on your event
💡Note: Ticket buyers will only be added to your follower list if a host profile is linked to the event at the time the ticket buyer makes a purchase and agrees to the marketing opt-in.
Past attendees who have agreed to marketing opt-ins can be manually added to your follower list. Read on for instructions.
📢 Notify your followers of your new event
Clicking publish on an event with a host profile gives up the option to notify your followers. This toggle is toggled “on” by default.
An email notification will be sent to your followers automatically once you publish your event. See below for an example
