Free weekend or offloading work?
Start from Chats. If you are free, spot opportunities from your network. If you need to offload work, open the right room and move it on quickly.
The little black book for the digital age.

Free day?
Find work through your network
Talk it through.
Ask who is free, share the brief, fee and timing, then keep the conversation in one place before anything becomes a confirmed booking.
Post wider than your usual circle.
When the usual names are busy, share the opportunity into a group or public event listing and let the right creative put themselves forward.
See who is free for the event.
Every yes stays on the event, so you can see who responded, who is available and who is right to recommend to the client.
Confirm the accepted artist.
Once the right creative is chosen, the accepted artist, date, fee, brief, contract, deposit and balance stay attached to the booking.
The client pays directly to Blubook.
Invoices are automatically generated for you to download. The payment goes into your balance to withdraw, whether it is your fee for facilitating or accepting.
Chats before the booking
The first place work moves.
DM someone, create a trusted group, check who is free and share ready-made events straight into the conversation. Event chats keep the details together until the job is done.
-
It starts with a message
Send a DM, open a group chat or bring trusted people together before a booking is formal.
-
Group chats for availability
Ask who is free, talk through the brief and share a ready event into the chat.
-
Bigger networks
Join wider circles so you can meet people beyond your existing contacts.
-
Event chats
Timed group chats keep one event together, then clear down when the job is done.
-
Practical details stay attached
Location, food, fuel, arrival notes, calls, video, meetings and voice notes sit beside the event.
Networks
Community groups for the work around the work.
Open Networks from Chats when the conversation is bigger than one booking or group chat. Create or join spaces for regions, creative roles, kit advice, recommendations, polls and wider professional circles.
