Both speakers and authors exist and are managed in the Vennture media hub but you may wonder why we need both and what is the main difference between them.
As the media hub includes a variety of posts, it also needs a variety of creators that are associated with each media item.
Authors are the main creators within the media hub and are used for every media post that is created e.g. blog, videos, events and downloads. For podcasts, authors are referred to as hosts.
Usually authors are people who work within your business and will likely have multiple pieces of content they produce or are associated with on the website. Authors can be connected with consultant profiles within Vennture Recruit so that profile pages on the website can include content produced by that author or person.
Speakers are the secondary creators in the media hub and are usually guest speakers on events or podcasts. These tend to be individuals who will appear on one or a few pieces of content within the media hub but are not the main creator so do not have an author profile created.
If you're still unsure of how to use these features within the media hub, contact a member of our team who will be happy to help you further.
