Greetings from the MyTeamCaptain Family of Companies - 06 Nov 2007


Making Your Life Easier... Because That's What We Do

The big announcement for this update is the new Import function, just added to the Contacts page.  Hopefully this will save you time as you use MyTeamCaptain technology to manage more teams.

We have also completed the build-out of our partner sites -
MyBandLink, MyCharityManager, MyClassHelper, MyLinkedFamily, and MyWineCircle have all launched.

Technology Update

1.  New Import Function.  In the Players (or Members) screen, there is a new look to the All Contacts area for Team Captains.  Now you can easily import contacts from any application quickly into MyTeamCaptain.  It works with two steps.  First, you put your contacts into the textbox and click "Check Import" to verify the data is good.  And second, you click "Add to Contacts" and they are added.


The new import function - 2 easy steps


2. Unsubscribing from emails.  With the ability to import larger groups of contacts comes more responsibility.  We require that all users be familiar with our Terms of Use, which include responsible use of the email and SMS tools made available to all MyTeamCaptain (and other partner sites) users.  Beyond that, we have launched a CAN-SPAM-Compliant unsubscribe function that automatically appears at the bottom of all emails sent to a player or group member.

3. League Fansite.  League Managers can now host fansites for their leagues, to make it easier for people to find out information about all the teams in their leagues.

4.  Single, unified password and account switching.  One password now controls all of your accounts.  Since one person can be a League Manager, Team Captain, and Player (or Group Leader and Group Member for the other portal sites), this simplifies the login process.  You can switch from account to account at any time using new links in the My Account screen.


In the My Account screen, more switching options


On the Burner

1. AdCenter. All of the ads served on the MyTeamCaptain network are now using our new AdCenter.  We're working on the interface for advertisers, so stay tuned for the beta release announcement!

2.  Team transferring.  We're working on an easy way to switch an entire team to another account.  If you change captains, there will no loss of continuity this way.

Quick Reminder for Team Captains

Remember to enter the scores from your games - your team and the rest of the MyTeamCaptain community wants to know about your victories, so enter your scores on the Schedule page and bask in the glory!  And don't forget to  tell your friends about MyTeamCaptain!

Thank you!

As always, we appreciate any feedback you have and hope that you are enjoying MyTeamCaptain and our partner sites! Stay tuned for more upgrades coming soon!
