Using the People Tab to Drive Engagement - For Hosts

Identify Key Attendees

Use the People Tab to quickly identify:

  • VIPs or featured guests

  • Industry leaders and partners

  • Repeat attendees

  • Highly engaged participants

Invite Special Guests to the Stage

If you'd like to feature a notable attendee during your event:

  • Reach Out First: Send them a message in the chat before inviting them on stage. Example: Hi [Name], great to see you here! We'd love to spotlight your work. Would you be open to joining us on stage for a quick conversation?

  • Invite Them On Stage: Use the Invite to Stage option to bring them into the broadcast. Keep the conversation:

    • Brief

    • Relevant to the audience

    • Focused on providing value

  • Use Clips to capture memorable moments. Share the highlights on social media.

  • Continue the discussion in chat or comments after the event.


Best Practices

✅ Be selective—not every VIP wants to speak live.
✅ Choose the right moment during the event.
✅ Follow up afterward and share any clips featuring the guest.


Troubleshooting

For Attendees

I can't see the People Tab

If the People Tab is not visible, the host has likely enabled Hide Audience for the event.

For Hosts

I can't unregister a participant

Only Hosts, Co-hosts, and Moderators can unregister attendees.

The People Tab isn't visible

Check the People Tab settings and make sure Hide Audience is turned off.
