It's a great way for you and for the Tribe community to get more exposure. But please respect people and only send invites to people you know. Ask yourself the question: would this person like to be invited to the Tribe?
There are four easy ways to use the Tribe Invite Center:
- Social Networks
There are two options. First option (POST BULLETIN) is to post a message to your personal page (for example your Facebook wall). The second option (SEND MESSAGE) is a more personal approach. The Invite Center can display a list of your friends. Listing your contacts makes it easy to select the friends you want to invite manually. It is also possible to send an invite to all your friends but once again we suggest you only select the people who are interested in your music and/or our online music community. Add a personal message to generate even more traffic to your site, for example a link to your Tribe of Noise profile page or to your music pages. - webmail accounts
The Tribe Invite Center displays a list of your contacts. You select the friends you want to invite manually. Add a personal message to generate even more traffic to your site, for example a link to your Tribe of Noise profile page or to your music pages. - basic invite
This option is the most basic one. Enter your name, the e-mail addresses of your friends (each on a separate line), a personal message and click on 'send invite'. - import csv
If you don't use other social networks, or you don't work with webmail accounts but you want to invite people from you Thunderbird or Outlook mail client, you can. You can send them an invite yourself of course using your computer's e-mail program or you can import these contacts (temporarily). Don't worry we do not store your data. Add a personal message to generate even more traffic to your site, for example a link to your Tribe of Noise profile page or to your music pages.
