EvolvHealth, LLC is Proud to Launch the First of it’s Kind Facebook App: “e84 Facebook Challenge App”

The e84 Facebook Challenge App (www.facebook.com/whatsyoure84) has been designed to help Evolv Customers and Members stick to their goals and COMPLETE their 84 day health Challenge. EvolvHealth is the only health company that measures completing a Challenge, rather than simply the results of weight loss or health benefits. The e84 Challenge is based on helping people create new habits over an 84 day period that will have a lasting effect once a Challenger completes the entire 84 days. EvolvHealth has seen over 90% of all people who complete the e84 stay active and continue their health transformation by starting a new e84 Challenge.

The e84 Facebook Challenge App was designed to bring a social media accountability process to helping someone to stick to their Challenge. With over 800 Million people on Facebook and over half connecting to Facebook daily, integrating a fun game oriented support platform for e84 Challengers was an important vision for EvolvHealth Chairman Trey White.

“My greatest success came in the Web 1.0, when we took Homestore.com to a $9 Billion Valuation. When we launched Evolv, I knew we needed to be the leader in how to embrace the new Web 2.0 social media era in a way to help people achieve better results and success. With the e84 Facebook Challenge App – we have done just that,” said Trey White.

The e84 Facebook App Allows the user to:

•  Start a Challenge for FREE
•  Set your goals
•  Pick your FAB FOUR – four Facebook friends (or more) who will help you stick to your Challenge
•  Earn points and badges each day you post a message from the App. Go for the perfect score of 1000. All you need to do is post each day to get the 1000!

“Even though we just launched the BETA, I can already see the impact it will have. I was at my computer yesterday, having a mid afternoon craving and I was about to get something I probably should not have. But after quickly checking Facebook, like most be do several times a day, I saw several e84 Facebook Challenge Badges and posts. This reminded me of my Challenge and instead of grabbing the expensive high calorie afternoon snack, I reached for an Evolv Energy and felt great. I also posted this and got my Day 2 Badge and points! Simple fun and effective,” says EvolvHealth CEO Brent Hicks.

The current app can be found at www.facebook.com/whatsyoure84 and is free to all users.  This is a BETA version and V2 is already under development.

Step 1: Visit the e84 Facebook Challenge App page at http://www.facebook.com/whatsyoure84 and click “LIKE”

Step 2: Click on the “Go To App” button to enter the e84 Facebook Challenge App

Step 3: Accept and Allow all permissions that it is requesting. Now you are ready to Start Your Challenge! Click “Start Your Challenge” located in the top banner, and then choose which Challenge you are taking.

Step 4: Invite your friends to your “Fab Four” and you are ready to start your Challenge!

How to protect yourself and your friends on Facebook

Has a Nigerian Prince left you millions of dollars that you must claim by emailing your bank account info, social security number and personal information to him?

Has a long lost Facebook friend sent you a chat message saying they were stranded in the middle of Europe and were needing a money wire transfer?

Some of you might laugh with these scenarios, but illegally targeting people’s personal information is a serious matter.

These days social media runs rampant, and we want you to be able to protect yourself from online predators. However, we still want you to be able to use tools like Facebook to help build your Evolv business.

With the current changes in Facebook’s privacy settings, it is easier than ever to be able to protect you and your friends from online predators that are trying to infringe upon your information.

One way you can protect yourself and your friends is to hide your friends list. Why would you want to do this? Well think about it… If I were an outside party who was looking to target your connections, I could go through your friends list and add every single one of them to mine. I could then invite them to an external website where I could collect all their personal information including phone numbers, emails, and in some cases social security numbers. Pretty scary, huh?

Follow these simple step by step instructions to keep you and your friends safe.

1.  Click the drop down menu under “Account” in the upper right hand corner, then click “Privacy Settings”

2.  You will then see a Privacy Settings Dashboard. Click on “View Settings” under “Basic Directory Information”

3.  In the Basic Directory Information Dashboard, click the drop down button next to “See my friend list”

4.  Here you can choose a few different options on how private you would like your friends list to be. Keep in mind that people are wanting to connect with YOU, and that if they are networking the best way to do it is to ask for personal introductions. This will alleviate your friends from being spammed. Click “Everyone” to hide your friends from others (Note: this will not hide your mutual friends).

5.  If you have your friends already set up in different lists, then you can click “Custom” to hide your friends from certain lists. For example, I have a list called “People I Don’t Know.” Type in the list name and click “Save Setting.”

There are many more privacy settings you can set up, but this will get you started. For further information regarding Facebook privacy settings, visit Mashable’s page on How to Use Facebook Privacy Settings.

Evolv Facebook Flair now available

Looking for a way to spice up your Facebook profile? This week we created a few  “flair buttons” so you can show your friends that you have chosen to Evolv.

Popularized by restaurants like TGI Fridays, and made infamous by the hit movie Office Space, strutting “pieces of flair” was the original way people could show off their interests, activities, and favorite quotes before websites like Facebook compiled all these things in one handy dandy “info tab”.

To download your virtual pieces of flair for Facebook, follow the instructions below:

When logged into Facebook, go to http://apps.facebook.com/getflair/

In the search box type in evolv and click enter.

You will then be shown _#_ different choices of Flair buttons.  Click the add button under the piece of flair that you prefer.
(Please note: if you do not currently have the Pieces of Flair application you will be prompted to add the application. Click “allow” when you face the “Request for Permission” page- you may have to go back to the Browse tab within the application to keep adding flair)

Click the Backgrounds tab while in the Pieces of Flair application to arrange your flair. Make sure you click save changes when complete.

To showcase your new Evolv flair on the your Facebook profile, click the plus sign next to the main tabs on your profile page and select Flair.

Next you will see a button to “Add to your profile”. Confirm that you would like to add it and voila! You have new flair on your Facebook profile.

You can share your flair with others in your team or publish it to your wall by using the different share options provided.
