VSee invite url
Today, we have some VSee tips on using the VSee invite link (a.k.a. VSee invite open URL).  The invite link is a handy little web link that can take the work out of adding contacts to your address book.  Instead of always having to directly send an invite from the VSee address book, you can now stick this open invite link anywhere people are likely to look for your contact information.  Here are our top 5 placements to get your VSee invite open URL working for you:

1.  Use it In your email signature so others can always find you by VSee, like this:

Anne
Storyteller
VSee: anne@vsee.com | Cell: 123.456.7890
Join me on VSee for free

(I’ve hyperlinked my open URL to both my VSee account as well as “Join me on VSee for free” invitation.)

2.  Add it to your LinkedIn, Facebook, or other social media profile:

3.  Include it on your blog or website.  It’s easy to hyperlink a cute button.  Take one of ours or make your own button for free.

4.  Send it over a text chat

Me:  this is too much to type
Christina:  OK.  Phone? Skype?  Hangouts?
Christina: sweet

 

5.  Even put it in your GChat and Skype “status” strings ;)
