There are three ways to share customized products with your Tribe:
- Share a Custom Product through email
- Invite friends to “join the tribe”
- Place a free Tribal ID “widget” on en existing group website
There is no charge for creating a tribe, using a widget and creating and sharing customized designs.
Share a Product Through Email:
Once a product mock-up is ready it will appear on your Tribe page or widget.
Tribe Page with Product
Clicking on the image or the “View Details” button brings up the product detail page.
Product Detail Page
Below the price and above “additional information” there is a “[share this page]” link. Click on this link to email the product to a friend.
Email Product
You have two options: cut and paste the email link into you mail program and send it, or click on SHARE and a window will pop up allowing you to send the link.
*** This is a pretty good time to ask your friend to join your Tribe. Once they are members of the tribe, they can comment on the products and add customized products to the collection.
Invite Friends to Join the Tribe:
Joining your tribe allows your friends to comment on the tribe, comment on products and make customized products of their own. The simplest way to invite friends is to select “invite friends by email” on your Tribe page.
Invite Friends
Just enter their email in the box on the left and they will receive a message inviting them to join. You can also use your existing address book from Gmail, Yahoo or Hotmail by entering your address and password on the right.
Place a Widget on Your Existing Webpage or Blog
The most convenient way to share your Tribe collection and comments with your friends is through a “widget.” A widget is a couple of lines of HTML that is cut and pasted onto your website creating a real-time link to your tribe page. Any time a product is added, removed or changed the widget will reflect the changes. And, you can click on a product on your widget to purchase a product.
Here is an example of a widget installed on the Tam Trailblazers’ Ning page:

Adding a widget to your page is simple. On your Tribe page, press the button “Share Your Products on Blogs and More.” A window will pop up with your widget displayed and a small “snippet” of code that can be cut and pasted onto your blog or webpage.
