Initial Guild Membership

by **Malaspina** Sat Mar 19, 2011 11:40 pm

After continuing to work with insurance and merchant services here is where we need to start.

Membership will initially be available to the guild as professional members. What this means is that you will show insurance coverage and once we hit 150 people who are wanting to go into the group insurance we will be able to negotiate the lower rate and become what is known as a managed account.

The Guild is mean to promote our craft as being individuals who want to demonstrate that we are professionals no matter how big our personal business is. This is not a craft circle or club, but rather a group of professionals banding together.

We will also be working with vendors in order to create opportunities for our membership to save additional money on their purchases.

Initially there will be no charge to join the guild but you will still have some requirements to join. Donations will be accepted to offset some of the costs of this guild. As we grow and are able to offer more services, membership fees will be brought in. I will get the application up onto the website within the next week.

It is time for us to move forward and become a true guild.

Cheers
