Seller's Groups are a GREAT way to meet new people, find much needed help and support and market your products better online!  It's no secret that this is the case because there are hundreds of them on ebay!  Be among the first to set up shop on 3HappyMoms to grab the top advertising slots below and start marketing your group! Fill out the application, and if your group meets the criteria we will get your package set up and ready to go!   WHAT CRITERIA? 1.  Group is considered minimum of 4 people and maximum of 30 people. 2.  Group will elect 1 leader/contact person to communicate with us.  This leader can change during the life of the group ~ but ONLY the current group leader that we have on file as the contact person may make any changes to the group including: leadership transfer, new people getting the group package, people leaving the group to open up slots for the package, changes to advertising logo and description etc. 3.  Groups will agree to and continue to follow the community rules. What's in this PACKAGE? 1.  Advertising space on the CLUBS PAGE~ submit a logo graphic and a description of your group. Your logo will be clickable over to your GROUPIES page where you can further advertise the group and your users can find links to auctions by individual members of the group as well as a link to initiate a search for all auctions using the group initials.  This will help to get the community to recognize your logo and look for your auctions. 2.  1 Private Group forum ~ administrated by your group leader and his/her chosen moderators. This forum will be hidden to all who are NOT invited as members. 3.  1 Public Group forum if you want it to publicly talk about and promote your products on the forum pages.  This forum could be used to help you market your group and its products, as well as to allow others to join in your discussions and such. 4.  2 (possibly more) months of free store for each member of your group.  This allows you time to get your stores set up and stocked, to learn the new system and work out any kinks you run into, and to order/prepare your advertising materials such as business cards and fliers.  Basically time to get established because we know this takes time and we want you to succeed. 5.  $20 of credit added to your account to allow you to run auctions for free for awhile.  This will credit will not cover the stores payments, but will cover all fees accrued by selling thru the auction or both options on the site. 6.  The chance for each individual to earn credit and commissions off of the people they successfully refer to the site through our referral program.  This program is available to everyone on the site and encourages referrals to the site in the form of BUYERS because we need them to find us!  Word of mouth is the best form of advertising. 7.  Advertising throughout the auction site...there will be a links section on the auction pages in a sidebox where a search of your auctions will initiate.  Use your group initials in your description for this function to work properly.   This will help your potential customers find you quickly!  Plus you get the GROUPIES page and the ad slot on the clubs page all of which are linked to in various positions throughout the community.  You can also add your own banners to the plug pages on the forums and the full plugpage. 8.  The opportunity to help build a site from the ground up.  We are a very new site and we need your help!  We encourage your input to make this a fun and exciting community that will make YOU money.  The group leader is responsible for submitting the application to initiate the set up process.  The group size allowed is pre-determined and anyone joining the group later will need leader's approval to receive the account credit and free store set up.   The CLUBS page and the individual GROUPIES pages are pre-set and the format will not be changed on a per group basis although colors, logos and personal content may be edited to suit the group leader's specifications ~ all information to be included on the page must be submitted in the form designated and please note that the page update may take up to 48 hours to show up. 3HappyMoms reserves the right to change, revise, rework or terminate this program and/or any participant within the program as the situation dictates.   Your application to this program constitutes your acceptance of our terms listed above.
