Ten quick things you can do in five minutes

We've had an exciting few months here at Fair Trade Music.

We're working hard to spread the word about our cause.

Here ten quick things you can do in five minutes or less to help us out:

1. Use the "Tell A Friend" tool on our our website at http://www.fairtrademusicpdx.org/ to send information to five friends.

2. Do you believe a venue may be a good fit for our program? We are
now in the early stages of discussions with music venues. Suggest a
venue for participation at

3. We've had some notable press recently. Read a recent article or listen to a radio interview about Fair Trade Music at

If you see something you like, share it via the convenient "Share/Save" button or leave a comment.

4. Sign up as a volunteer at Volunteer@fairtrademusicpdx.org. We have some events coming up and will be reaching out more to our endorsers and list members in the months to come.

5. Send us testimonials. Do you have a gig horror or success story? Send them along to http://www.fairtrademusicpdx.org/?q=contact/.

6. Post a link to http://www.fairtrademusicpdx.org/
on you or your band's webpage. If you send out periodic email
newsletters, don't forget to let your fans know about Fair Trade Music
as a way to support Portland's live music.
