Creating & Managing a Circle

Creating a Circle takes seconds. Once created, your Circle Dashboard becomes your command center for managing members, announcements, and visibility.

Creating a New Circle

To create a new Circle:

1. Navigate to the Circles section of your Nouncify dashboard.
2. Click Create a new Circle.
3. Circle Name: Enter a catchy and recognizable name (e.g., “Coffee Loft Regulars”).
4. Pitch: Provide a one-sentence description of who this circle is for.
5. Host Title: Choose your badge (defaults to “Vibe Master”, but can be “Teacher”, “Founder”, etc.).
6. (Optional) Google Classroom Integration: If you are a teacher, you can link the Circle directly to a Google Classroom class. This allows you to auto-import your class roster and post the Circle link directly to your students as an announcement.
7. Click Publish Circle to generate your unique Circle link and QR code.

[!NOTE] When you create a new Circle, Nouncify automatically assigns a vibrant, random accent color to its public page to ensure a lively aesthetic.

The Circle Dashboard

After creating a Circle, you are redirected to the Circle Dashboard. As the Circle’s owner, you have access to a suite of management tools across several tabs:

Member Management (Vibers Tab)

• Listen & Learn: Play name pronunciations directly from the dashboard.
• Track Engagement: View the Listen Count and Flip Count for each member to see who is engaging with the community.
• Reorder Members: Use the drag-and-drop handles to manually reorder how members appear on the public page.
• Remove Members: Keep your Circle relevant by removing members if needed.

Growth & Invites (Growth Tab)

• Share Link & QR Code: Easily copy your Circle’s share link or generate a unique QR code for physical spaces or presentations.
• Track Invites: Monitor how many invitations have been sent out and track pending invites.

Announcements

Keep your community updated by setting an announcement. You can enable the announcement feature to show a customized title and message at the top of your public Circle page. If you choose, you can also trigger an email broadcast to notify all current members of the update.

Pinned Links

Direct your members to external resources by adding up to two Pinned Links. These links appear prominently on the public page and can include rich previews (OG images and descriptions) if available.

Visibility Settings

Control who can find and join your Circle using the visibility picker:

• Invite-Only: Only users who explicitly receive an invitation can join.
• Unlisted: Anyone with the direct link or QR code can join, but the Circle won’t appear on your public brand profile.
• Public: The Circle is visible on your brand profile and is searchable.

[!TIP] Don’t forget to slide the Publish toggle when your Circle is ready! You can always slide it back to temporarily hide the Circle while you make updates.
