Hey Casey — welcome to the Marion Consortium. I'm Blobby.
Gonna walk you through this in like 90 seconds, then I'll get out of your way. Sound good?
Yeah, let's goSkip the tour
Yeah, let's go
First thing: when do you want me to ping you about activity from other members?
You can change this anytime in Settings. No drama.

Daily digest at 8am
Got it. I'll send you a daily digest at 8am.
By the way — you can mute or unmute specific businesses anytime. I won't take it personally if you mute me.
Two quick questions next. Your answers personalize what I suggest in your dashboard — which templates to show, which members to pair you with, which suggestions to surface. You can change them anytime in Settings.
First: what kinds of things can you offer to other members' customers? Don't overthink it — pick whatever feels right.

Nice. Those are 4 things you can put on the table day one.
Now flip it — what would you love to receive from another member?
Continue →
OK you're set up.
Before I let you go, let me show you the three kinds of things you'll see in the dashboard — no pressure to do any of them right now, just so you know what's possible. Cool?

1. Promos — offers you make to other members' customers. Like this:
▸ Example promo
"Casey's is offering Harding tenants a first-time discount. Text Casey at 740-555-0123. Codeword: CASEYS."
Sender: Casey's · Target: Harding tenants · Codeword tracks who shows up

2. Events — broadcast something happening at your business. Other members can amplify it to their own audience:
▸ Example event
"Open Mic Night — Friday at 7pm at the back room. Free admission, 80 capacity."
Sender: Coffee + Co-work · 12 members notified · Each can promote to their own list
Got it →
3. Pop-up swaps — trade space or time with another member. The brewery and gym did one of these last month:
▸ Example pop-up swap
"Looking for a gym partner for a Saturday morning yoga + mimosa session in our tasting room. Brewery brings space and drinks; partner brings yoga."
Sender: Local Brewery · Bilateral · Accept, decline, or reply with terms
Got it →
That's the whole thing.
When you're ready to make one of your own, tap + New in the top bar of the dashboard. Or just look around for a while — there's no rush.
