Inside of the CultureBot admin page (easily found inside of your Slack org), you'll simply want to select a channel (or channels) to send the celebrations to (arrows on the right), as well as the time of day for them to send. Note: setup of work anniversaries is nearly identical to that of birthdays! For the next couple of steps, we'll be click on the buttons shown in the brace on the right.
After clicking on the 'collecting birthdays' or 'collecting anniversaries' buttons, you'll be shown the screen on the left. Here, you have the option to either upload your birthdays (or anniversaries) or have the bot do the collecting on your behalf. With either option, you'll still have the ability to edit/delete birthdays and anniversaries after the fact. The bot can also collect birthdays and anniversaries of new employees as soon as they're added to Slack!
Lastly, you can decide to edit the message that gets sent for the birthdays and work anniversaries, as well as (optionally) add a gift. If you add a gift, the bot will directly message the teammate with what they have won.
Now that you're all setup, you'll be able to join in on the fun with your team everytime there is a birthday or work anniversary to celebrate. If more than one teammate has a birthday or work-aversary on the same day, the bot will intelligently group them together to avoid Slack spam!
CultureBot comes with a 2-week free trial and is free forever for teams of 15 or less.
The first ever bot for Slack designed to make improving team culture easy and fun.
