Refer 10 friends to ArtFire and get your Verified Account totally FREE FOR LIFE!

Your efforts to help make ArtFire successful are worth a great deal. It is the early members like you that make this site a great selling venue. The foundation you are building will benefit your sales and future artisans for a very long time and we value this partnership and your efforts for the growth of the Artfire community. Every member you bring in, every person you tell is another buyer or seller who makes this site great and your studio successful!

Our team has worked very hard over the past months to get Artfire to the point it is at today and we now need your help in growing the community. Tell your friends about Artfire and ask them to join; share with them what you like about Artfire and invite them to participate and guide our growth. Together we can build a community of artisans that care about making a positive impact on the world and who support handmade.

We call this our sweat equity program; if you are willing to invest in the future of Artfire now, we will return the favor by investing in your future. In fact, we are willing to give you something worth a great deal as a thank you for working to make this community great. So here is our way of saying thanks to those of you who are bringing in friends and contacts. You are the builders of artfire. We want to reward you with a verified studio for life - for FREE. Your word is important to us. The fastest way we know of to build this community is through word of mouth, and that word needs to come from real sellers. We invite you to keep helping us spread the word build this community with us.

Here's how it works:

1. Use the link generator on this page to create a link to the signup page that will auto fill your user name as the referrer.
2. Post that link in your blogs, forums, pages etc.
3. Email that link to friends.
4. Invite people to join at the $7.00/month rate and tell them why you joined.
5. Track how many signups come through your username as a referral. (we're tracking them and you can keep track too through this page on the top right in yellow)

When 10 people sign up at the $7.00 level who came to us with you username as the reference, we'll convert your verified membership to FREE for LIFE.

ArtFire.com Referral Rules:

1. The 10 people have to be real signups – if all 10 quit next month (or in three months) , we'll wonder about that.
2. The program will continue until all remaining Artisan Stimulus Verified Memberships are gone.
3. The signups will be permanently recorded. However, this period won't count towards any future promotions we run (For example the scooter promo will be a different time period and likely a higher membership rate).
4. Each of the people who sign up will also get this offer in their My Artfire until 2009.
5. Our reporting captures only those signups that actually have your username in the referral box, that's why using the link is a good idea.
6. Signups prior to this link are not eligible. Everybody starts at 0 signups as of 11/24/08.
7. They must sign up as a paid verified member for the referral to count as a point.
