How to
Creating an account
- Click Join on the home page.
- Continue with Google, or enter an email and a password.
- In the first step, enter or check your first and last name. If Google split your name wrongly, fix it here. Add a photo if you like.
- Then pick your goals (up to 3), industries (up to 3) and focus areas (up to 3).
Good to know
- You can change goals, industries and focus areas later in Settings > Profile Priority, once every 3 months.
- People who pick the Creator / Influencer focus area are matched more easily with marketing, sales and business development people.
