Create your Guava EVP site

Written by Help

1. Register your site

You can create your EVP site from guavaevp.com by clicking Start free in the top right corner.

Fill in your work email. Choose the default language for your portal. Check your inbox for the confirmation code.

Fill in the data and approve the terms, click "next step".

Make it look more like your company branding, pick a colour, default language, add your logo and cover (will be used in the system when images are missing).

2. Prepare your portal

Guava EVP helps you deliver the following information:

  1. Working here - to explain key pillars of your EVP including mission, vision and values.

  2. Your perks and discounts

  3. Most important documents in multiple languages.

  4. Get pulse feedback from users in the form of eNPS or a 4-face scale.

2.1. Working here

Go to Admin > Pages. There are multiple ways of describing your EVP to users. One way is to have just text (including some pictures and videos), or you can add a collection (carousel type of cards, showing information more visually, so users can swipe back and forth between cards).

There's a template "Working here" in the system, you can see two parts - "Working here" is the text part and "Mission, vision and values" is the collections part.

2.1.1. Pages

You can edit the page like a simple web page, adding text, pictures and videos. The H1 and H2 headings you use will appear in the users’ main view.

You can also add multiple languages. Decide if you want to use collections, if not, uncheck all connected collections from the menu. Finalize your EVP and save.

2.1.2. Collections

Go to Collections view and open "Mission, vision and values".

The Working here collection doesn't require multiple categories, but you can add them from categories view.

Add your new EVP items or change the existing ones.

Default fields are:

  • Name - shown in main view as a quick link

  • Summary - shown in collection main view alongside the title

  • Categories

  • Visible for

  • Media - Picture (or video), if left empty, template picture is shown

  • Content - longer description

You can also add attributes, structured fields that apply to all items. Example attributes are "valid until" or "Location".

2.2. Perks and discounts

"Perks and discounts" work the same way as the “Working here” section, consisting of Page and Collection parts.

You can use more categories when showing your discounts, to make the structure easier to understand.

Here's a sample of possible categories:

2.3. Documents

Go to Admin > Documents, find "Welcome” and press Edit.

If you don't want to publish any documents to users, go to settings and mark the folder as "archived".

You can change the name of the Documents folder - "Your company name" documents.

Edit the section. You can rename the section, add text and add files.

If you want to publish the same documents in multiple languages, you can use translations of folders. This enables the users to see only documents in languages relevant for them. If the translations are missing, they see the default language folder.

Go to Admin > Documents and Add Translations. Pick a language and give the folder a name.

After you have created the folder, you can add sections the same way as in the default language.

When all is finished, the folder must be published from the settings menu.

2.4. Pulse

Guava EVP lets you gather feedback from users with two pulse surveys: eNPS (0–10 scale) with a comment, and a 4-face scale with a comment.

To enable the pulse, go to Admin > Pulse. Pick a pulse you want to use and press "Edit"

Add a schedule for your pulse, it can be one-off with manual periods or recurring (e.g. monthly or quarterly). Quarterly is a good place to start, as it doesn’t tire users out.

By leaving the "Activate the pulse survey" checked, the pulse is published and appears for users in the main user view.

You can see the results inside the pulse survey under Overview and Analytics section.

To stop the pulse, disable it in Admin > Pulse view.

3. Invite your users

When the portal is set up, you can check how it looks in mobile view or from User section. If all looks great, you can start inviting your users. You can invite users from Admin > Members view by adding every single user manually or use a link (which can be turned into a QR code).

3.1. Adding users manually

Press Invite Manually. Fill out First name + Last name and one contact method - either email or phone number.

If you want to add more admins, change the role in Member Management section. Press "Add member". The invite is sent to the member on the selected contact method.

3.2. Adding users by link

Press "Invite via web link" and "Add a new link". The link is created.

You can send the link to users, so they can register themselves to the system.

It’s very important to decide if you will allow users to be registered automatically or you want to approve them before they can access the system. You can set it up by checking or unchecking “Add new users automatically”. If you leave the setting unchecked, you need to approve new members before they can access the system. You’ll get an email notification when your approval is needed.

If the setting is checked, users are added automatically, with no approval needed, and can start using the system right away.

⚠️ If “Add new users automatically” is checked, treat the link like a key: anyone who has it can join. Only send it directly to your employees. If you want to put the link or QR code somewhere public (noticeboard, break room, group chat), uncheck the setting so you approve each new member first.

You can turn the link into a QR code. Chrome and Edge have this built in. Copy the link and before pasting it into your browser, log out of Guava EVP first.

You’re all set to share your EVP with your people.
