Bevy is an enterprise community events platform used to scale in-person events and experiences. Created by the founders of Startup Grind, Bevy helps companies manage their C2C (customer to customer) marketing programs and get face to face with customers and potential customers. Clients include Atlassian, Duolingo, Docker, Evernote, and Fiverr.
Love that you're building this, @derekjandersen, and sounds like a typical "scratch your own itch" as a long-time Startup Grind organizer. At Product Hunt we see ~100 community-led meetups hosted every year around the world. We should look into this tool closely, @jacqvon.
@rrhoover thanks Ryan! Product Hunt's meetups are incredible. The question is, how do you get to 500 or 1,000 cities without @jacqvon's life falling apart due to the workload? :) That's where we found ourselves, up everyday all night because the tools were so inadequate.
Also if you don't have an awesome brand yet like Product Hunt but you wish you did, how can you get your small army of loyal fans to start helping you light the world on fire? C2C (customer to customer) marketing may be the best way to get the spark going.
My co-founders and I started Startup Grind, a global community for startups and entrepreneurs with chapters around the world. A few years ago we started to have massive issues scaling as the tools that we used were just not built for us so we created a product (Bevy) to help us scale.
After a year of developing Bevy we onboarded Startup Grind and growth took off again (now in 400 active cities). Then other communities started to ask us if they could use it and so we white labeled it for them. Companies like Atlassian (aug.atlassian.com), Duolingo, and Asana run their entire user group program using Bevy.
With scalable tools, we believe that ANYONE can do this with their brand not just big companies with lots of money. Customer to customer marketing is the best way to build your brand and loyal fanbase and it doesn't take much to get going. Excited to be on PH today.
