Announcements let you send a message to everyone hired on a shift, right now or on a schedule. Use them for the details talent need before they arrive: who to check in with, where to park, what to wear, a change to the plan.
Announcements are sent from the Croux web app. Sign in at croux.co on a computer or tablet browser.
How to send an announcement
- Open the shift from your dashboard
- View the hired talent for that shift
- Choose Send Announcement
- Add a short Title and your Message
- Under Delivery, choose Send now or Schedule for later
- Choose Send Announcement (or Schedule Announcement)
Scheduling for later
- Quick schedule offers 1 day before shift, 2 hours before shift, or Custom date & time. The exact send time (for example Sends Aug 29, 2026, 3:30 PM CDT) shows next to it before you confirm.
- The message cannot be edited after it is sent. Check the details before you confirm.
Asking Concierge to do it
You can also tell Concierge to send or schedule an announcement in plain language, for example: Tell everyone on Saturday's banquet to check in with Sherry at the loading dock, and send it the morning of. Concierge drafts the announcement for you to review before it goes out.
Seeing what was sent
Choose View Announcements on the shift to review everything sent or scheduled for it. If nothing has gone out yet, you will see No announcements yet with a shortcut to send one.
Tips
- Keep it short. Talent read these on their phones, often on the way in.
- One announcement per topic. A point-of-contact note the day before, a parking note the morning of.
- Parking and arrival details that never change belong on the shift itself. See How Do I Add Parking and Arrival Instructions for Talent?
