Thanks for the wonderful update Leslie. Really appreciate all of the information you share with us, and the continued silver membership enhancements!!! Love the guaranteed crediting on featured sites with silver members . . . just a great idea!

I'll certainly do what I can . . . Terry

Thanks for the update, Leslie. Like Terri I really appreciate you taking the time to provide us with such a detailed update of what you are doing and why you are doing it. It is really helpful to understand why you are implementing certain changes and what directions you are working to take the forum in. I am really looking forward to the information that Chris will be posting about how to get referrals. Up to this point you and Chris have provided us with a lot of useful information about marketing; your continued efforts to provide us with ways to learn and grow on the internet is truly appreciated. Being a member of CaliStyle as a Silver Member just keeps getting better.

Thank you Chris & Leslie for all of your continued efforts to make Cali "the forum" for traders.

Thanks Terry and Linda for the kind words. We are not guaranteeing crediting for silver member on feature site, although this would be a great idea. We are guaranteed that those who trade with sliver members will be paid when they go green. If for any reason a sliver member skip out on a trade, we will make payment. I hope this clears it up.

Does this mean we will only be able to trade sites that are listed here either featured or other?

That is a great question CouldB. Could you please clarify if we are only to use sites that are listed here.

That's not what it means. It does mean that we REALLLYYY would like you guys to use mostly the featured sites, because that Really does help the forum out significantly, which in turn helps you guys out.

You are free to trade on whatever site you wish, we are just trying to nudge you in the direction of focusing more on the featured sites. Hope that clarifies. I will be updating the list of featured sites today.

Thanks for the clarification, but I don't think I can focus any more than I already am on a featured site. LOL

So that I understand...the silver membership is a sort of...verification process, thus the added benefit of payment in the event payment failure occurs..yes? Just my need to clarify...sorry!

It's excellent to know traders here are allowed to work whatever sites/networks work for them and imagine if I bothered to read a bit more, I'd discover the answer to my question...which is...benefit to traders/referrals of the need to nudge them onto "featured" sites? Common sense suggests if they are featured, it's a financial benefit to the forum, so we'll sidestep that part as moot

Any conversation about maybe having znz join this already great line up of networks? Thanks.

Thanks for asking. The sliver membership is not a verification process. It offer additional forum features such as, Paypal Verified Badge (if you are PayPal verify), Access to Power Affiliate Program, 50% Commission (On all upgraded membership purchased by your referrals), Affiliate training videos, Referral notification and much more.

My favorite feature is the Referral notification. It allows you to be notifiy via PM every time someone you refer to the forum sign up, and you as assigned as their mentor. For me this gives you additional incentive to promote your forum like referral link, and allows you an opportunity to get more referrals.

You can learn more about the silver membership here.

Thank you Leslie and Chris for taking the time to keep us well informed as to what is happening and what we can look forward to. You always revive my faith in this industry and I'm grateful to be a part of this fine forum!

Um, ok, thanks. So let me ask from this direction...lol...you don't have to be silver to silver members in order for payment to be rendered to an injured trader in the event of trade failure? Guess what I'm asking is...and perhaps it's in a tutorial somewhere, but the voice is a bit grating to my ears so have had to cut those short, sorry, but what is required in order to ensure someone has "insurance" in the event of silver to silver trade failure...or am I missing something altogether? lol...that is ALWAYS possible

Thanks!
