Street Team FAQ:

TEAMSTIGMA:

Here are some questions answered for you so you can get the gist of what "Team Stigma" is all about.

If you came here because the info on the website sparked some interest, here is some more info on what we're about and what we do here in Street Team land.

Dont know what a street team is? That info is here for you to read aswell.

Again thankyou for the interest in the team and in promoting the band.

WHAT IS THE STIGMA STREET TEAM?:
The Street Team is dedicated to letting other music fans know about the band via word of mouth, over the internet (message boards, online communities,via email, fan sites etc), radio requests, promotional materials such as: flyers, stickers, merch, posters, mp3s, e-cards and banners, either created by the band to distribute, the co-ordinators of the street team, or other street team members.

WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO?:
It's not a question of what do you have to do. It's a question of WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO. All street team promotion is based on how much you want to help out the band. Even if you just want to forward along their newsletter or URL to potential fans, or if you want to get out there and stick up some posters or flyers. How much input you want to put into the team is up to you. A little or a lot of input all adds up in the end anyway.

All we ask is to put the promotional tools/ideas we've listed on the site to good use. If you have created any of your own feel free to distribute them. If you want to distribute any of the flyers we'll post up on the site go ahead. There are a few things we ask you to do if you do decide to distribute material in public. Read the DISCLAIMER here.

Take them to concerts, work, campuses, events, skate parks, gigs, stores (music stores are a good idea) and festivals. Wherever you can find potential music fans.

WHAT IS IN IT FOR ME IF I JOIN?:
You won't get paid if that's what you're asking. None of us do. You will have the chance to win cool prizes, packs and items autographed by the band, exclusive to street team members. You will also be offered discounts on merch, cds and much much more! Usually when you join we send out free stickers, for a limited time we may send out a free cd or two. We will make flyers, mp3s and special exclusive items available when we can. We have all promotional tools/ideas posted up on the site.

WHAT IF I HAVE IDEAS FOR THE TEAM AND THEY ARE NOT ON THE SITE?:
Thats cool. Either fill out the form or email the Street Team address and we'll hook it up for you.

DO I HAVE TO SEND IN FEEDBACK EVERY NOW AND THEN?:
Preferably YES. We encourage your feedback and any ideas you have in improving the street team. If you want to send feedback either email the street team address OR fill out the FORM we have up on the website.

We always want to know what you have done for the band and even better PHOTOS of your work. (Even if its just a pictire of a flyer you've made on a pole or up in a store). Photos will be posted up in the "Picture This" section of the site. Also we will pick a street teamer for an exclusive interview every couple of months. This gives you a chance to see who the other street teamers are, and what they are doing.

WHERE DO I SEND THE PHOTOS?:
Photos can be emailed HERE or posted to the POLYBOX. Please remember to put the following info:
STREET TEAM PHOTOS
C/O STIGMA STREET TEAM
PO BOX 234
QUAKERS HILL NSW, 2763

ALSO, if you've gotten your photo taken with the band send it in. It will be posted up on the site aswell and we'll send out stickers to anyone who sends photos in by mail. This is for a limited time only. So dont miss out!

WHAT IF I DONT LIVE IN AUSTRALIA?:
No probs. You are elligle for ONLINE TEAM STIGMA. OR if you are really interested in helping out the band feel free to start a stigma street team of your own, and promote Polystigma in your country, town or area.

WHEN ARE THE POLYS GIGGING NEXT?:
We find out here in the street team when the rest of the world does. So check their wesite frequently for updates.

DO I GET PAID FOR THIS?:
Nope but then again neither do I. Street Team work is volunteer work. You help out the band because you want to, and when you want to.

I'VE ALREADY JOINED THEIR OTHER MAILING LIST, DO I HAVE TO JOIN UP AGAIN FOR THE STREET TEAM LIST?:
Yes you do. As both lists are different. The street team one focuses on the street team and the Polystigma one focuses on things going on in the band.
