Wondering how best to promote your Alliance?  Many of our most successful Alliances flourished out of a blog post.  

You can see examples of this with:  

The Feministing Alliance and their Introduction to Alliance ,

Cupcakes take the Cake with their Alliance Announcement and 

John Birch Society and their Introduction to Alliance.

Remember, everyone has their own needs when launching an Alliance, but the thing to emphasize is that this is an opportunity for local groups to get to know and support one another.

If you post about Alliance on a blog or forum, please let us know, we're always eager to hear how our members use their Alliance.

We heard from many of you that you need to be able to invite groups easily for your Alliance to be successful. We're introducing a new feature to help you do just that.

Alliance Organizers can now invite groups using a new form. Make sure you're logged in. You'll see a link that says "Invite Groups" on your Alliance homepage, right above the Alliance Update field. Input the email addresses of the group leaders you want to invite, write a message, and send it off. The people you invite will be pre-approved to join your Alliance. You'll get a notification when they join.

We hope this helps you share your Alliance and get groups involved. Let us know what you think!
