You don’t need a studio. Your phone is fine.
If you’ve ever had someone watch you work and say “you should teach this”, this page is for you. MingleIn is built for people who know their craft inside out and have never recorded a Workshop in their life. Plain-spoken, founder-led, no equipment required, no algorithm to chase.
The recording kit, plain English.
Your phone, propped up
Any phone made in the last five years. Rest it on a stack of books or use a $15 tripod from the hardware shop. That's the entire setup most early Hosts use for their first Workshop.
Natural light
A window in the morning is better than any studio lighting. No bulbs, no diffusers, no boom mic. The point is the craft, not the production.
The free intro Workshop walks you through it
After signup, you get free access to the Host onboarding Workshop, made by the founder. It walks you through Workshop planning, the Boast frame, recording, pricing and upload. Watch it at your own pace. Pair it with the 5-day email journey that arrives over the same week and you have everything you need to ship your first Workshop.
Beginner-friendly, finishable, recognisable.
Your first Workshop targets a beginner audience and produces a small thing the Member can hold up at the end. Not the showpiece, not the magnum opus. The first thing someone in your shed would make if you walked them through it for an hour.
Beginner-friendly
Wider audience. More Members. More Boasts. Your second Workshop can go deeper; the first one is the warm-up.
Finishable in a sitting
About an hour of guided Workshop, plus a bit of their own work. Short enough they actually finish it; long enough to teach something real.
Recognisable as theirs
The Member's finished piece should look like theirs, not a copy of yours. Their wood, their lines, their choices. That's what they Boast about, and that's what brings the next Member in.
50% of every sale, paid into your bank account.
No subscription. No fee to list. No platform tax on craft. If a Member pays $40 incl. GST for your Workshop, you get $18.18 deposited in your Australian bank account. GST handling, tax invoices, all the paperwork: we do it.
First payout lands within 7 business days of your first sale. Predictable, every time.
A Saturday shed session, anywhere in the country.
Once someone’s bought your Workshop, they can invite up to 10 mates to a Watch Party. Each mate buys their own seat at full price. You earn your 50% on every sale. The Organiser does the inviting, the calendar, the wrangling; you don’t have to do anything for it to happen.
Start with one small thing.
Signing up takes a minute. The first thing you’ll see is a 5-minute intro video from the founder, then a 5-day Host onboarding journey. Your first Workshop takes an afternoon. The platform takes care of the rest.
