01 — The Opportunity

Why FlyerChanges the Game

Social media buries your events in noise. Flyer is purpose-built for event discovery — your audience isn't scrolling past memes, they're actively looking for things to do.

🎯

Targeted Local Reach

Your events land in front of people in your area who are searching for things to do — not a scattered global audience hoping the algorithm cooperates.

💸

100% Free Platform

No subscription tiers, no pay-to-play. Create your profile, post unlimited flyers, and access analytics without ever entering a credit card.

📊

Comprehensive Analytics

Post-event data including attendance metrics, session popularity, and audience engagement — so every event you throw gets smarter than the last.

🔁

Recurring Event Support

Weekly residencies, monthly showcases, seasonal series — build a consistent presence so your audience knows exactly where to find you.

🔍

Purpose-Built Discovery

Unlike social media, Flyer users are here with intent. They want to find events. You're not competing with cat videos — you're the reason they opened the app.

🤝

Community-First

Flyer surfaces hidden gems — the underground shows, emerging artists, and local talent that deserve an audience. Be part of building your city's scene.

02 — Who This Is For

Built for Everyonein the Event Ecosystem

Whether you run a venue, perform on stage, or organize street fairs — Flyer gives you the tools to reach your local audience effectively.

Venue Owners

  • → Build a venue profile that becomes a destination for local event seekers
  • → Schedule months of events in advance to attract recurring audiences
  • → Use analytics to learn which nights drive the most traffic and refine your calendar

03 — Getting Started

Go Live in5 Minutes

Setting up on Flyer is fast and free. Here's exactly how to go from zero to your first published event.

Step 01

Create Your Free Account

Head to theflyer.app and sign up. The process takes under two minutes — just your basic info and you're in.

Step 02

Set Up Your Promoter Profile

This is your identity on Flyer. Add your name or brand, a logo or photo, a short bio, and links to your social channels. Think of this as your storefront — it's the first thing attendees see when they discover your events.

Step 03

Create Your First Flyer

Add the event name, date, time, venue/location, a description, and your flyer artwork. Customize the event page to match your branding. The more detailed and visually appealing, the better it performs in discovery.

Step 04

Load Your Calendar

Don't just post one event — schedule the next 2-3 months of events. A loaded calendar signals to attendees that you're active and reliable, and it feeds Flyer's event database so users in your area always have options.

Step 05

Share and Cross-Promote

Share your Flyer event links on your existing social channels, email lists, and in-venue signage. Think of Flyer as your event hub — and social media as the megaphone pointing back to it.

Step 06

Analyze & Iterate

After each event, review your analytics. See what drove attendance, which events resonated, and use that data to refine future programming and promotion.

How to BuildMonths of Events

The more events in Flyer's database, the more valuable the platform is for everyone. Here's a framework for scheduling a robust event calendar.

Month 3+Maintain a rolling 60-day calendar. Review analytics from past events to optimize timing, descriptions, and visuals.Sustain momentum and continuously improve event quality
Pro Tip: Batch Your Uploads

Set aside one session per week to upload all upcoming events for the next few weeks. Treat it like restocking your shelves — consistency is what builds an audience that checks Flyer regularly.

Pro Tip: Flyer Artwork Matters

Events with eye-catching, well-designed flyer images get significantly more engagement. Invest time in your visuals — they're the first impression in the feed.

Pro Tip: Spread the Word in Your Scene

Every promoter, venue, and artist you bring to Flyer adds events to the database. The richer the event listings in your city, the more attendees the platform attracts — and the bigger your audience becomes. Refer colleagues, collaborators, and competitors alike.

05 — The Founding Program

Become aFounding Promoter

The first 10 Los Angeles-based promoters who demonstrate exceptional commitment to the platform — by consistently uploading a significant volume of high-quality event flyers over time — will be awarded permanent Founding Promoter status. This is a lifetime distinction that can never be revoked.

⭐ Founding Promoter Badge

A permanent, verified badge on your profile that signals to attendees, artists, and venues that you were one of the original builders of Flyer in LA.

📌 Priority Placement

Your events receive priority positioning in local discovery feeds — giving your flyers a persistent visibility advantage over standard listings.

💬 Direct Access

A direct line to the Flyer team. Shape the product roadmap, request features, and influence how the platform evolves — your voice carries extra weight.

📊 Enhanced Analytics

Access to advanced analytics and reporting tools as they roll out — before they're available to the general promoter base.

🎟️ Future Monetization Perks

As Flyer introduces premium features or ticketing integrations, Founding Promoters will receive preferential pricing or early access, permanently.

🏆 Legacy Recognition

Your name or brand will be featured on Flyer's official Founding Promoters page — a permanent record of who helped build the platform from the ground up.

How Qualifying Works

There's no fixed formula — we're looking for promoters who treat Flyer as a core part of their operation. Consistently uploading events, maintaining a deep calendar, and bringing quality listings to the platform over a sustained period of time are the benchmarks. The 10 spots will be awarded on a rolling basis as the bar is met. Once filled, this program closes permanently.

06 — Best Practices

Make EveryFlyer Count

Follow these guidelines to maximize the reach and impact of every event you post on Flyer.

🖼️

Lead with Strong Visuals

Your flyer image is the first thing users see. Use high-resolution artwork, bold typography, and clear event details in the visual itself. Blurry or generic images get scrolled past.

✍️

Write Compelling Descriptions

Don't just state facts — sell the experience. What makes this night different? Who's performing and why should someone care? Give people a reason to commit.

📅

Post Early, Post Often

Events posted 2-4 weeks in advance get more traction than last-minute listings. Give your audience time to plan. Keep your calendar at least 60 days deep.

🔗

Cross-Promote Everywhere

Share your Flyer event link on Instagram stories, in your email newsletter, on your website, and at the venue itself. Let Flyer be the hub — everything else points to it.

🏷️

Categorize Accurately

Tagging your event correctly (music, comedy, art, community, etc.) ensures it surfaces in the right searches. Miscategorized events frustrate users and hurt your visibility.

📈

Review Your Analytics

After every event, check your data. What drove attendance? What time of week performs best? Let the numbers guide your programming decisions.
