1. Highlight: Duplicate a calendar

When a Teamup Calendar works well for one team or project, a similar setup often works well for another team or project. What if you could copy a calendar that works well? Now you can!

The new duplication feature makes it super easy to copy the sub-calendar structure and/or basic configuration of any Teamup master calendar. The copy is created as a brand-new Teamup calendar. Then you can adapt and scale the duplicated calendar as needed.

2. Inspiration: A shared live event journal

Looking for a better way to stay synced with your team or document your experiences at an event? With Teamup, you can easily create and share a live journal. Everything you save is kept in a specific context, on your calendar. It’s easy to find later and easy to share with others. No unnecessary interruptions, no floating bits of data without context, no digging through all your photos to find just one you need, and no need to jump between emails, texts, notes, and files.

3. Use case: Make the most of trade show marketing

For marketing teams, trade shows and conferences are often a valuable source of leads. Plus, participating at these events increases brand awareness and may lead to valuable partnerships and connections. If you’ve been using a spreadsheet to plan schedules, organize ideas, and keep your team coordinated, here’s a better option: Teamup is visual, collaborative, user-friendly and great on mobile.
