A Tribe Called K2 Buhl-oog!

Hey y’all,

To become a full and contributing member of the Tribe Called K2, you gotta tell us how to serve you, you gotta participate.  the best way to to do that is to join the K2 Tribe on Facebook.

1. Become A Fan

One of the many inspirations to maintain the K2 fan page on Facebook was to provide our customers who are friends, who are family members with a really easy way to communicate with us, our Instructor staff, our Customer Experience Goddesses,  our numerous writers o’ the blog, and the folks who decide the vision of K2, including myself.

. . . and to share with you some limited exclusive stuff that’s not published on the blog.

The fan page was made for you! It’s updated on a regular basis and this is where we frequently share the beach dives, stuff going on with other family members, exclusive stuff that doesn’t necessarily make the email list.  Boat Dive deals as well as wickedly discounted trips abroad.  Also, if you DON’T live in Southern California, here is where you can tell us you are coming into town, and see if we dont wrap a BBQ around you!

That being said, by becoming a Tribe Member o’ K2 on Facebook you’re actually helping us to grow.

Becoming a fan is really easy.

Once you’re logged into Facebook, go to facebook.com/k2scuba. As soon as you arrive, click on the “Become a Fan” button at the top of the page.

Let me quickly introduce some of the stuff we post on our fan page:

• Yesterday’s Best — if you look at the “News” tab, we go through our website to look for the most popular articles from the day before which we think may be of interest to you.
• Sneak Peek — In K2 HQ, we plot, plan and scheme how to make you giggle: beach dives, boat dives, beach parties, trips to far places where the sand is white, the water warm and gin clear, and the natives inviting.  This is where we ask you, “whatta you want to do? where do you want to go?
• K2 Asks — We love reader interaction and “Asks” is a series specially dedicated to our fans for this very purpose.

• Promotions & Giveaways — In addition to that, we also occasionally post up promotions sent in by equipment manufacturers, providing you with a chance to get a free stuff, wickedly reduced stuff, and some great deals. You will also have the scoop on anything that happens on K2. Whether we’re looking for new  focus groups, new events, announcing a competition, we’ll look to Facebook and our fans first.

• Ask Something — Anyone can write on our wall! This is where you can ask us anything; whether you’re having difficulties, need our opinion about a web service, equipment, recommendations on scuba junk, or simply just show your love for K2! The fan page is constantly monitored and no wall post goes unnoticed.

We also have a groups page, this is where we announce our events such as beach dives, boat dives, demo days by manufacturers, etc. . .

2. Suggest K2 to Friends

Like any new and exciting product, it’s only fun if you have someone to share it with; and our fan page is no different. As soon as you are a fan, you have the opportunity to recommend K2 to your friends. Click on the “Suggest to Friends” link and select everyone you’d like to share with and click “Send Invitations“.

This is really one of the best way you can help to us!

3. Once you’re a fan

Now that you’ve joined the fan page, you’ll be kept well informed because our wall posts will appear on your Home page. In a glance, you’ll conveniently view the posts that were all the rave the day before — Yesterday’s Best; and what’s coming up the following day — Sneak Peek; as well as everything else we post on our wall.

With every post on the Tribal wall, you may:

• Read the full article (1)
• Publish the post on your wall and share it with your friends (2)
• Show other Tribal fans that you enjoyed the post by “Liking” it (3)
• Comment your heart out (4)

By “liking” a post and commenting, you’re sharing the love with your friends (they’re more likely to read it if they know that a friend already has) and promoting interaction — which is what the fan page is all about.

4. The Easy Way To Share K2 Articles With Your Facebook Friends

Sometimes, an article you enjoyed reading on the K2 Blog and found really useful may not be featured on our fan page (we don’t want to spam our fans with every article) but you can actually share the article with your friends quite easily!

At the end of each article here you’ll see a “Share|f” button. It takes only two clicks.

Click on that button and you’ll be forwarded to a special page where you can preview and customize a message for your Facebook friends.

When ready, cllick on “Share” to post the article to your Profile wall.

That’s about it!

Please don’t be shy to share what you think about the Tribe Called K2 by jotting a comment or two on our wall. We’re applaud suggestions and criticism from our fans. It won’t be any fun if we don’t receive feedback from you guys!

We hope to see you on our Facebook fan page and join the other fans who are already enjoying the benefits of following us.
