3 Tips for Growing Your Team

Having a large team running together is really fun! But motivating everyone to sign up on time can be challenging. Here are 3 Tips to help you grow your team and have everyone registered in time before the team deadline.

sending team reminder emails

1. Emails

The most important part of this is the -s. One email inviting everyone to the team is not enough. You may feel pushy but trust us, your not. Reminding people of the deadline and the perks is important. We suggest at least 3 emails between now and the team deadline to remind everyone you want on your team to register.

 

3M Team Shirts with Custom Names

2. Add Perks

Some need a little something extra. If you are able, you may want to offer something special to everyone who joins the team before a certain date. This can be something like having their name on their shirt, if you are doing a group shirt or maybe a hat or special pin.

 

create facebook event

3. Share it on Social

If you are a public team, share it everywhere. 🙂 A great way to do this is a Facebook Event where the event date is the team registration deadline. You can then invite all your friends and then ask them to invite everyone they know who might be interested. In no time you may find yourself with 100’s of people who are interested in joining your team. Post in the event or private message these people to make sure they are reminded of the deadline.

 

Remember, whether it is 5 or 500 having a team is about having fun! See you and your team members at the start line on 01.21.2018!
