2 MIN READ
You've signed up, great work! Now it's time rally those around you to join the ride.

Want to join a team that’s already been started? “Search” for the team or individual in the upper right hand corner of Movember.com and request to join their team.

Want to start your own team? It's easy as ABC:
  • A: Click TEAM on the left side of your Mo Space
  • B: Select the “Start a Team” link

  • C: Name your team and start recruiting members
Customize your Team Page: Post photos, updates, and men’s health facts to inspire your fellow change makers to grow, MOVE and fundraise throughout the month with you.

Get Social: Not quite sure how to write a status update that will motivate your social networks to join your team? We’ve made it easy for you to recruit everyone on your social channels with our ready-to-go Facebook and Twitter posts. Dad isn’t on Facebook, but he wants grow a mean Mo? Use our pre-written email messages in the Build Your Team section.

Create Events: Hosting a Movember event is a fun and easy way to celebrate the Mo. Register your event and receive a free Mo Event Kit!

Educate: Arm yourself with information about men’s health and Movember programs to show others why you grow and MOVE. Each Mo Bro has the power to spark over 2,400 conversations during the month about men’s health.

Take it to the streets: Spread the word with posters from our free promo packs. The Downloads section of your Mo Space has customizable posters, Facebook cover photos and donation cards. Plaster your office, school or favorite hangout with the posters included in your Mo Space.

Issue a challenge: Many Mo’s enjoy a little friendly competition during the month. Challenge your teammates, colleagues or friends to think differently about men’s health by raising funds and awareness for men's health. Fundraising goals are a great way to motivate your team. Set lofty goals and encourage your teammates to achieve them. You can also have fun by challenging your team’s follicles to a growing contest.

Say thank you and celebrate: When someone joins your team or gives a donation, be sure to thank them for their contribution – they will appreciate it and want to further participate in your efforts. Host or attend an end of the month Mo party to celebrate the month.

Good luck Mo Bros and Mo Sistas! If you have any other tips for team building, put them in the comments below.
