How do I know if the talent has accepted my shift request?
How can I book the same talent for every shift?
You can book talent individually from your Roster, instead of sending out to the whole Roster. This is best for when you want to send a shift to a specific person. In order to do this, go to your roster, click the checkmark on their profile picture, and then select confirm. From there you will enter in the details of the shift and submit the shift. The talent will have the opportunity to accept or decline your shift. For a video on how to send an individual booking to someone in your roster, see below.

If a freelancer calls out of their shift, how can I find a replacement?
If POURED talent calls out for their shift, the best way to refill this shift is by sending out a community booking, or if you have another talent you would like to book that is in your roster you can book from roster. A community booking (“How to” video below, minute 1:25) is a great way to quickly find a replacement. If you are experiencing trouble in finding a replacement, please contact your POURED brand manager for assistance with next steps.

First, be sure the talent accepted the shift request. You can check this by clicking on the “Bookings” tab in the app. Check to see whether they Confirmed the shift request, Denied the request, or if it is still Pending.
If the shift was confirmed and the talent did not show up to their shift please FIRST, send out a community booking (“How to” video below, minute 1:25) for the same day.

How do I access talent?
Can there be multiple users under one profile?
Yes! Each store will have one profile with the same login and password which can be shared among store managers. This profile is set up by a POURED member and then can be shared with other users at the store managers discretion. The one profile allows multiple managers to have visibility on the actions of the profile, communication with talent, and a calendar of booked talent.
Can I add additional stores to my POURED app profile?
If you manage multiple stores you will have the option to add multiple locations under your brand profile. You can add stores located in New York, LA, and Orange County to your profile. In order to do so, please email ab@poured.app & provide the address of the new store you would like to add.
I am locked out of the app, how can I get back in?
If you have been locked out of the app or have forgotten your password, please email ab@poured.app for a password reset. We will be sure to make this a top priority!
Can I hire candidates from the POURED app?
Absolutely. Many of the freelancers on the app are interested in being hired full time by a brand. We call this a conversion. A conversion allows a brand to hire POURED talent as one of their employees. After the conversion is complete, the individual is removed from the POURED platform and unable to be booked by other brands. The cost to convert a freelancer to your permanent employee is a one-time $3500 fee. A signed contract is required in order to complete the conversion process. Please contact ab@poured.app with any questions, or if you are interested in completing a conversion.
