Second Life Mall Association is launched!!

This initial purpose of this group was to give a unified group that all malls in Second Life could use and promote open rental space(s) within their malls. Think of a mass group which has a sole purpose of the owners and/or managers of a mall to be able to notify all it's members if they have any commercial rental space open!

OPEN ENROLLMENT FOR EVERYONE!
A great benefit of the SLMA is the group is open enroll. As a mall owner or manager, you have the potential to reach every valued shopper in Second Life if they have enrolled in the SLMA. You will be able to send a notice to all members with details on any open commercial rental spaces you have driving traffic to your mall who are eagerly looking for competitively priced malls. Search for the "Second Life Mall Association" group and enroll today!

HOW CAN YOU ENROLL YOUR MALL?
Any mall owner who wishes to have their mall enrolled as a participating mall in the SLMA, should fill out the "Second Life Mall Association Enrollment Form" and add your mall name onto the end. Your enrollment form will be added to the main information note which is delivered via our official SLMA signs, one of which you will received upon your enrollment completion. Everyone who clicks the sign to get the SLMA information note will have direct access to your malls enrollment form which will give them the name of the mall owner, managers, landmark to get to your mall and other information such as the type of products which can be found there and renting rates and rules.

About the founding owner of the SLMA. Dartavia Vesperia has founded and managed a similar group called the Gorean Merchant Caste for the past 3 years which has become an invaluable asset to the gorean market places. Dedication to the group has been proven over the years as dependable, reliable and quick to address issues which might arise in a calm and concise method. After leaving Gor, I found it almost impossible to find a network of malls where I can move my product line out of the Gorean market places into the mainland stream of Second Life. I welcome the challenge of forming and creating such a network with my co-founder, Bobbey Lane who will manage the Customer Relations aspect and help enrolled members with information and direction.

To start up in the Second Life Mall Association, you can come to Pleasant Point (sim name: City of Lara) and get the notecard from the sign in the mall. Or you can join the "Second Life Mall Association" group and send a message to the group asking for the form which can be easily sent to you.

We hope you can see the maddening benefit for all mall owners and managers with the formation of the Second Life Mall Association. Other groups might have started up and attempted to create the vast network which we are trying to do, but we have years of experience to back up our efforts. What mistakes we have made in the past and learned from will become another valued tool you can use!
