Getting Started

Everything you need to know to get started and keep informed with GroupNews

Create a GroupNews Group

GroupNews is a platform for publishing your organization or team news, events, and deadlines. Your GroupNews Group helps you to break down information silos and keep your entire company in the loop. It's where everyone can find and discuss the information they need in order to do their job effectively. Here's how to create your Group and get started with GroupNews.

Things to keep in mind

  • When you create a group, you’ll become the Group Owner. This means that you will be a group administrator and responsible for billing on any paid GroupNews plan.

  • If you are using GroupNews for work, make sure to sign up for GroupNews using your company email address and use that account to create your Group.

  • Your Group was designed to be used with your entire organization or company. That said, you can also create a Group for you to use with your team or department and expand it later by inviting more people.

Create a Group for your organization

  1. Sign in or create an account with the email address you want to use with GroupNews.

  2. Go to https://groupnews.com/groups/new.

  3. Follow the prompts to create a Group for your organization or team.

Now you can invite your coworkers to your new Group.
