How to Plan Setup and Cleanup Shifts for an Event

Describe what needs doing before and after your event. Proximatic's AI can help create the shifts, then you can share a signup and see who will do each job.

The doors open at ten. The tables have to be ready before that, and someone needs to return the room after the guests leave. Recruit for those jobs while you're recruiting the crew for the event itself.

Proximatic puts setup and cleanup beside the public-hours shifts on one signup. Each has its own time, places and instructions. A person who can only help early can take setup; someone free later can join the closing crew. Both become named commitments on your roster.

If you're starting from the event idea, Try an event plan can help shape it. Describe a Saturday fair open 10–3, setup from 8–10 and cleanup from 3–4. Proximatic's AI turns the brief into jobs and shifts for you to review. You can adjust the people needed on setup without changing the welcome desk's hours.

Once the signup is open, the roster shows whether both ends of the day have a crew. If cleanup still needs three people, make that request before everyone has worked a full day. The people who sign up for closing arrive knowing that packing away is their job, rather than being the last guests left in the room.

Create your event signup and recruit for the whole day.
