Adding Events is as Easy as 1-2-3!

Every autumn it’s nice to reflect on summer and what you did. Well, we’ll always remember this one as a summer we made events and business listings submissions easier than ever before. Now when you submit your event on 49st you don’t need spend time editing content, browsing our system or reading documentation. You probably don’t event need to add it!

Why is that?
Simply visit our ‘add content’ page and start typing your listing name. If it already exists (which is likely) then just “claim” and “verify” the information.

Here’s an example for the sample event “Spirit of the Dance”:

We made this process as simple as current industry standards offer.
But these are not all the improvement we have. When you take ‘ownership’ or create a new listing, you now have the opportunity the promote your listing to increase awareness and help spread-the-word.

Here’s how our new promote feature works (again for the sample event “Spirit of the Dance”):


And yes, you couldn’t help but notice that we accept online payments now. We selected Paypal since it is secure and a well recognized brand. Now you can order a promotion campaign tonight and have it up-and-running tomorrow.

So, where’s the benefit to you?
You’re right, we are so happy with these new promotional features that will gladly give you a discount of one free Newsletter or Featured listing (valued at $49). Just visit our store with the promo code “doubletheexposure” and, get one promotion free.
