Tips for the best turnout

  • List each shift as its own time slot.
  • Set the expected number so you can see when a shift is covered.
  • Share the link wherever your volunteers already gather.

On the next step you’ll propose your own candidate dates & times — everyone marks yes/maybe/no and siono surfaces the slot with the best turnout, live.
