Confirming Your Meetings (Quick process, under 10 minutes)

Accessible via: Both Desktop and Mobile App  

Here's what you need to do: On December 11, you'll receive an email containing details about your scheduled meetings. Your task is to review and confirm each of these meetings, and we're confident it won't take more than 10 minutes (and possibly even less!).  

Key Points to Remember:   

• Your prompt action is appreciated by accepting each Hosted Meeting, up to a maximum of 8. No worries if the other party doesn't respond.  

• Please be aware that any meeting not confirmed by the specified deadline won't be scheduled, unfortunately.  

We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring the success of the scheduling process!  

Choosing your Brand-to-Brand Roundtables  

On December 17 it is time to choose which roundtable you’d like to attend  

Here's what you need to know about Brand-to-Brand Roundtable.  

Brand-to-Brand Roundtables are 50-minute discussions involving up to 10 peers from fellow Brands. These discussions center around crucial industry subjects and are strictly for brands only.  

The sessions are scheduled from January 17 at 8-8.50  

THEN 

Choose individuals you wish to meet.   

This process typically takes 60-90 minutes.  

• Access the selection process through Desktop or the Mobile App.  

• Look at the sponsors who are open for meetings   

• Select those of interest and who you would like to meet with  

• If you have any specific challenges or needs you’d like to ask the sponsors, please list these in the notes section  

• You need to choose 8 people you would like to meet with; this allows us to facilitate double opt-in meetings (you are however still only contracted for only 3 meetings)  

Please note:  

Requesting meetings with multiple individuals from the same organization will still count as one organization. Similarly, if you opt-in to multiple requests from the same organization, it will count as just one organization.  

Accepting Calendar Invites for Your Meetings:  

You'll receive a calendar invite for each of your scheduled meetings. It's essential to ACCEPT all calendar invites ON THE SAME DAY by 5pm. It's a brief process, and, as you guessed, won't take more than 5 minutes.   

Important note:  

• Simply declining the invite isn't sufficient.  

• As a Hosted Retailer & Brand, it's necessary to accept all your Hosted Meetings  

• In case a scheduled meeting participant becomes unavailable, we'll notify you. Emergencies happen occasionally, after all.  

Joining Your Meetings!   

Arrival Time: Aim to arrive 5-10 minutes before your first scheduled meeting.  

No-Show Protocol: If your meeting partner doesn't show up, grant them a 5-minute grace period. If they still haven't joined, use the "no show" button in the Creator Economy Live mobile app.
