What’s co-hosting and why you should absolutely be doing it.

This is the era of hosting things. We said it. There's a new hobby club, a new game night, a new idea taking shape everywhere you look, and we are here for it!

But what most hosts forget is that you don’t have to do everything by yourself. In fact, there’s so many perks to having a co-host. That’s why we’ve had it as a feature on the app since day one.

No matter where you are in your hosting journey - somebody who's about to host their first thing, throwing your friend a birthday party or maybe even a seasoned host, you need to give co-hosting a serious thought. Here’s why.

Co-hosting: What and Why

Co-hosting: What and Why

For the uninitiated, “co-hosting” is hosting something with one or multiple people instead of by yourself. Doesn't matter what the Hotspot is - a coffee afternoon at your home or a night at the club. Co-hosting perfectly fits. Everywhere.

Think of it as an extra pair of hands. Hosting is fun, sure, but sometimes it's nice to have somebody else doing it alongside you. And the best part is, co-hosting can look however you want it to.

Got everything organised but just want your Hotspot to reach more people? Add a co-host.

Great with hosting people at home but keep forgetting to order cutlery? Add a co-host!

Okay, the last one was a joke (mostly) but you get the point. Co-hosting just means you don't have to do things alone.

The best part about adding a co-host?

The unique strengths they bring to the table. Hosting is an art and there’s always something new to learn about it. At 8club, you can even request a seasoned "super host" to host with you. These are the people who are known for hosting the best experiences in your city. Imagine all that expertise and experience put into your Hotspot. Of course, it will be one of a kind.

An underrated use-case?

If you are organising something with a friend, you can publish it on 8club and add your friend as a co-host from the get-go. Whenever someone new RSVPs or anything else changes, there's no need to keep each other in the loop. Every piece of information about a Hotspot is automatically available to all the co-hosts, in real time.

Why co-hosting: A quick summary

Why co-hosting: A quick summary

  • Share the load - planning, logistics, and on-ground hosting duties don't have to sit on one person's plate.

  • Reach more people - two (or more) networks are better than one when it comes to filling up your Hotspot.

  • Borrow expertise - bring in a super host and level up your Hotspot with their experience.

  • Host with your people - turn a hangout you were already planning with a friend into a proper Hotspot, together.

  • Stay in sync, automatically - every co-host sees every update in real time, so nobody's left refreshing their DMs.

Hosting is a different kind of fun when you're not doing it solo. So next time you're setting up a Hotspot, ask yourself: who's your co-host going to be?
