What is a Collection

A Collection is a central place where your customers can view all or some of the listings you offer on Eequ.

Who Can Create a Collection?

Anyone with an Eequ account can create a Collection - Mentors or Bookers!

It’s perfect for:

  • Organisations and education providers

  • Holiday clubs and venues

  • Community groups and councils

  • Schools and small businesses

  • Home educators and Home Ed parent collaboratives

If you want to showcase multiple listings in one place, a Collection Page is for you.


How to set up your Collection

Go to Menu > Collections, then click the Create a Collection button


Add your a name for your Collection

Add new Collection name, then click the Create button.

Note: Once you add your Collection name it becomes a sharable link (url), this cannot be edited once set.

You can set up multiple Collections so it’s important to give each one a descriptive name.


Add your Collection's details

  1. Add your Collection title - this can be tweaked from the name you set in the previous step

  2. Add a title for the short summary of describing what you offer

  3. Add a short paragraph summarising what your Collection is and offers


Add your Collection logo and cover photo

Click the grey icon with avatar and upload your logo.

Note: Your logo is placed in a circle, make sure you have enough boarder for it to look good

Choose a cover photo that is impactful and engaging. Please don't upload an image that has text in it - it lessens the impact of your page!


Add your Listings to the Collection

  1. Select the checkbox by each listing and it will be automatically added

  2. To remove a listing, simply click the bin icon. This will not delete your listing, only remove it from your Collection page
