Overview

Ask supporters to Recruit Friends and grow your base.  Supporters can tap into their Facebook friends, Gmail contacts, Yahoo Mail address book, and more.

Ask supporters to Recruit Friends

Note: If you haven’t already done so, you must first install the Action Plugin and then setup at least one Kit.

We also recommend exploring the various widgets and APIs that can be used to integrate this Action into the rest of your online and offline tools.

  1. Click the "Mobilize" button from any location within the Staff App.  
  2. Select who you want to complete this Action by segment or individual supporters.  
  3. Personalize the body of the message that your supporters will receive.
  4. Select the Action "Recruit Friends"
  5. Select your Action Kit which you previously created
  6. Set the number of friends that you would like for your supporters to recruit.

Next Step: Once your Recruit Friends Action is installed, you'll want to setup one or more Kits.

Set Up the Kits

To set up this Action Kit:
