Last week, Zibbet launched an initiative in support of the buying and selling of truly handmade products. Our new website, iPledgeHandmade, encourages handmade artisans and crafters to ‘take the pledge’ in support of individual handmade, fine art, vintage and supply sellers. In Zibbet’s October 2, 2013 newsletter, Jonathan Peacock, Zibbet’s CEO, stated: “I want to go on record as stating that Zibbet will never allow any seller to ‘work with outside manufacturers to help produce your designs’. It goes completely against our vision for the marketplace. Zibbet is now one of the only pure and true marketplaces in the world for handmade.”
We ask you to join the growing group of Zibbeters who are standing together to maintain a marketplace that is unique and committed to individual sellers by taking the iPledgeHandmade pledge. After submitting your pledge, you’ll be presented with the code for three widget options that state that you’ve taken the pledge. Each widget links to Zibbet’s iPledgeHandmade website. Select the option that most appeals to you and install the widget in your Premium Zibbet shop, your blog, and any website that allows the installation of widgets or gadgets. Add the URL for the iPledgeHandmade website, www.iPledgeHandmade.com, to business cards and other printed materials you use. Help spread the word that Zibbet is ‘all in for Handmade’ and so are you!
Best wishes for much success on Zibbet!
