Start the New Year Out Right!
Whatever you believe, whatever you celebrate, we wish you the best this week, this holiday season, and this coming year.
How many of you have "Get More Organized" on your perpetual list of New Year's Resolutions? Yeah...so do we. Well this year do something about it...and let us help. There is no better way for a group or team leader to
organize his or her life than with our web-based software. Once you complete the initial set-up process, Teamr pretty much runs itself!
Ask us how if you need help getting started.
And don't forget the best part. It's free! Spend all you want on Holiday gifts and when you are done come see us. Consider it a little gift to yourself.
If you did not get a chance to take our customer survey last time please take a minute to fill it out. We promise it won't take more than 3 minutes of your time and your feedback is very important to us. Thanks!
In This Issue
You don't need no stinkin' Evite! Rise above it - create your events, manage your attendees, collect fees, assign items to bring, send reminders through email and text message...wow that is a lot of stuff! But seriously, Teamr
and all of our sites are tremendous for event management! Give it a try today...we are here to help.

* See what we are working on for next month.
Why Upgrade to Premium?
You may ask yourself why we tirelessly promote Premium accounts. It's not just because that extra $5 is the difference between us surviving on mac and cheese, and living high on the hog (microwave
burritos). It's because a premium teamr account opens a world of opportunity to save YOU time and money. Accepting online event payments, adding custom pages to your public website, customizing your emails, and sharing account
management access with trusted team members are just a few of the many reasons to splurge this holiday season. Consider it a gift to yourself!
Leave comments for events. Who needs evite any more? Team members can now leave comments for events. And, of course, better than evite, you can set up multiple events, assign people to bring stuff, and send
surveys. Do it all in one place - teamr!
All attendance responders can leave comments
Now you can include attendance confirmations for any upcoming event with your email messages! This is in addition to including survey questions and fee reminders. Choose the Email Quicklink
from the Home page and check it out.
League Managers - set points for your league standings. As a league manager for a sports league, you can set up how your teams are ranked. Set the number of points for a win, tie, loss, overtime loss, and forfeit.

Want to get your League or Parent Organization using the system as well?
Let us know and we will be happy to work with them to complete the initial set-up.
New Look in the Media Section Things were getting a bit cluttered on the Media page so we cleaned it up for you! Add files to events, custom folders, or both. It's all up to you...check out the new look
today. And don't forget, you can load any type of file from mp3 to PDF to Word. It's more than just a picture viewer!
The left side of the media area is more compact now
You can now bring contacts in to your account from our technology partner,
CoolerEmail. Long known as a state-of-the-art email marketing system, linking CoolerEmail to Teamr brings even more power to your fingertips.

You're going to see some changes in the way the navigation looks...all the same great features just a new look for finding your way around. We changed the Active Teams/Groups
page to the Home page, for example. It's live now, so if you have any feedback about it, just
let us know!
-
We're going to
create a new search function for your team, so if you want our 20,000+
users to be able to find your team, they can do so.
