10 Great Reasons You Should Be a Member:
Help Us Pool Our Resources
to Keep Our Cash in the Community — For Only $9.95!

The Green Mall began — modestly enough — in 2008, when Nancy Hoffmann (Owner of TomatoDesign.Net) saw a need to bring together all the wonderful companies she had gotten to know as a member of Green America. Her links page became so popular, that in June of 2009 she conceived the idea of The Green Mall (leasing space by "square bittage") to organize the 120+ companies that had signed up (some of them in several categories) on her design site.
Now, what began as a (free) favor to her green colleagues has snowballed into a full-time commitment as an "agent" for them. The idea has become "Keep your cash in the community": which means The Green Mall strongly encourages its members to shop from one another. (Which is why this Mall is 100% wind-powered by Canvas Dreams!)
• All Members benefit from having a full-time PR/Advertising agency working for The Green Mall.
• In early 2010, an Affiliate Program will be started, allowing members to get a month or two’s free “rent” by bringing in more certified green Members.
• Keep your cash in the community: Members are encouraged to shop from each other. It’s one-stop sustainable shopping!
• Pool your resources: special sales & promotions can be cost-shared by several Members: e.g., Christmas coupons; charity auctions; Valentine’s Day specials; etc.
• Ongoing PR and advertising for The Green Mall and its Members boost sales for all: “A rising tide lifts all boats.”
• Every Friday, beginning at Noon EST, all Members can arrange for a FREE 30-minute session of marketing advice.
• Members will be individually featured in articles on The Green Mall blog and site, until all Members have had a chance to stand out.
• Members’ companies are easy to find on a well-organized, searchable site.
• Parking at The Green Mall is always free! (We will be developing a Food Court, too, one day soon.)
The bottom line is that the more we pool our resources, the more business The Green Mall can drive to your companies: it's a win/win situation for everyone! . . . and the cost will remain a low $9.95/month!
