Host Account:
Create a Host Account for the team and have every player make an account. As a Host you can not only enhance any occasion
you are hosting but also be linked to other occasions you are involved in such as a player's appearance on a podcast. This increases awareness
and organizes social engagement.
Channel:
Create a Channel for every season. This makes
it easy to engage with your crowd, increasing connection, engagement, awareness, and interest.
Add Channel information including whatever you would like with endless customization through our
Rich-Text/HTML editor or by embedding webpages for the Channel and merchandise/ticketing. Add up to
five Co-Hosts if necessary, to provide equal access to the Channel. From here, Crowd Members can search
for and follow your Channel.
Create Channels for anything else the team is involved in such as Vlogs or Charity Events. Those following the team's Host Account
will automatically follow all of your Channels.
Events:
Create Events for every game to enable engagement surrounding the game, provide robust
information, and spread awareness. By doing so you create a social environment and allow your Crowd to stay on top of every game.
Also create Events for every press conference to allow the press, fans, or both to participate.
Each Event can be scheduled beforehand, during, or after.
Every Event has information including an image, location, date and time, and description. You can enable Event Engagement in several different forms. Events
can be made private with a defined pin so only a select group can participate.
Each Event can have additional information including whatever you would like with endless customization through
our Rich-Text/HTML editor or by embedding webpages for the occasion and merchandise/ticketing. This opens avenues
to allow your Crowd to stay on top of stats in real time directly in the platform, purchase merchandise or
tickets increasing sales, spotlight sponsors or resources, and much more. Event info can also be reposted to the
feed as a feed announcement. This provides notice regarding the Event to your Crowd and allows them to also repost
the feed announcement increasing the level of visibility.
Hosts can record video to Dropbox, broadcast a livestream on YouTube, or embed recorded video within any Event.
Crowd Members can view the embedded video/livestream from the list of questions or posts as they engage.
Include every member of the team's Host Account participating in the Event. Including them spreads awareness to their followers and enables them to
be asked questions or tagged in posts organized within their own dedicated list.
If fans have yet to join CrowdUltra, they can join to engage in seconds using our Quick Join feature. A Quick Join
Link and ID are provided for every Event that can be shared and used to sign up with. Members of the Crowd can also see who
they follow that is following the Event as well to connect with them.
Channel/Event Chat:
Every Channel and Event has a chat for all crowd members, Host(s), and speaker(s)/guest(s) to text message one another. Channel/Event chats enable organized
communication centered around the specific Channel or Event, strengthening connection and increasing engagement while never getting in the way of Event or daily
Feed engagement. Crowd members can also create their own personal group chats with other crowd members for every Channel and Event, allowing for personalized
chatting among friends surrounding the Channel or Event.
Event Q&A:
Conducting Q&A is the basis of a press conference. The standard nature of getting in line or passing around a microphone to ask a question is less efficient
and effective than using CrowdUltra. Other common outlets that are used such as Twitter or Reddit are also limited when compared to CrowdUltra. With CrowdUltra, questions can be asked
by only the press, the fans to be utilized by press outlets, or both.
Questions are displayed in an ordered list from highest to lowest rank based on Crowd voting to assist in showing what the
Crowd has the most curiosity about, saving time.
Questions can be allowed to be asked before, during, after, or some combination of the three. Questions can be asked and answered in audio, video, or written
format. Hosts may also allow questions to be asked anonymously. Questions can be asked in general as well as to someone specific. Questions can be marked as
answered if they were answered verbally or dismissed to take them off the list and hide them.
Event Posts:
Allow the Crowd to easily post, share, and connect surrounding the occasion. Our platform provides an engaging environment that sparks interaction
other social platforms lack. By creating an organized environment for your whole Crowd to engage, you increase connection and the effectiveness of social
engagement.
Enable Event Posts before, during, after, or some combination of the three. Hosts can allow the Crowd to post audio, video, images, links, YouTube/Vimeo videos,
or written posts. Posts can be published in anonymous format if allowed by the Host. This augments the experience allowing the Crowd to share interesting
things, be creative, have fun, as well as inform and help others.
Event posts are displayed in an ordered list from highest to lowest rank based on Crowd voting. Every post can be responded to with audio, video, images, links,
YouTube/Vimeo videos, or in written format. Posts can also be highlighted to spotlight to the Crowd as a whole, or dismissed and removed from the list.
Event Call-Ins / Meet & Greets:
Participate in Call-Ins or Meet & Greets with your Crowd.
Allow your Crowd to join an ordered queue or submit their conversation topic to pre-screen. Engage with one or more members of your Crowd through audio or video chat.
Once the conversation is over, remove them from the chat and automatically be linked with the next Crowd member in the queue or select the next interesting topic.
The audio or video chat can also be recorded to Dropbox or recorded and livestream broadcast to YouTube.
Ticketing:
Create and sell tickets for any Channel or Event. Sell Virtual/PPV tickets, up to five in-person ticket options, or both for Hybrid
Events. Our easy to use ticketing system offers flexibility and control to be perfectly tailored for any ticketed occasion. Sell
multiple ticket types such as day one and day two tickets or a VIP ticket. Determine the total ticket quantity available and how many
tickets can be purchased per person for in-person tickets.
Monitor ticket sales in real time through our robust reporting system. See what is delivering the most results and other actionable
insights to sell more tickets. Tickets are automatically marketed to your followers through our platform and via our search/discovery
functionality. They can also be easily marketed and shared anywhere else. We SEO optimize all Events and tickets to ensure the most
views, clicks, and conversions.
Our ticket scanner is the most accessible and easiest to use. The scanner is available on any device including phones, tablets, computers,
and scanning hardware. Tickets are accessible through our app along with being downloadable, shareable, and printable via email.
Our ticketing is developed with industry leading security standards to ensure ticket sellers and buyers are as safe as possible. All
purchasing and payout financial information is secured via Braintree and PayPal third-party services. We never store any sensitive
financial information.
Additional Features:
We provide many other additional features, including sending emails to all followers and exporting follower information. Hosts can send email announcements
to all followers of a specific Channel or Event, allowing Hosts to easily reach out to all their followers in mass. Hosts can also export information about
their followers including their name and email, so they can reach out beyond the platform.
Profile:
Create a profile to showcase the team with the most customizable profile experience any social platform has ever offered. Profiles can be created with
endless possibilities using our Rich-Text/HTML Editor or by embedding a webpage. All crowd members can view and interact with your profile, strengthening
your connection with them and increasing awareness about who you are.
Daily Feed:
The daily feed is designed to enhance engagement by enabling you to communicate in a powerful way and extend awareness. Unlike other social platforms, we give
you access to 100% of your following instead of <1-10%. We do not advertise on
our feed or have algorithms manipulating viewership and effectiveness.
Q&A sparks conversation and encourages the conversation to continue. Ask daily questions to your Crowd in audio, video, or written format. Answer questions from
members of your Crowd in audio, video, or written format.
Send daily announcements to keep Crowd members in the loop and share content using our Rich-Text/HTML
editor with countless embeddable integrations. Your announcements can be reposted by members of your Crowd to everyone following them, spreading organic awareness
in a way that will increase your following.
