Hey, how do you get onto the Recruiting Leaderboard? I told a creator about the benefits of Backerclub, and she took my advice and managed to get onto BC, here is the project link: http://backerclub.co/project.php?id=826

Does this count as recruiting a project? Does this and if so how much Backer bucks does recruiting projects earn?

Thanks!

Hi Nick,
If they used your personal link then you should automatically be credited. I don't know how quick that happens but if you haven't seen anything after a month or so then I'd contact our admins directly.

I have been contacted twice regarding recruitment but both early on. I have seen a few projects come in recently but really have no idea if they came through me (as I strongly suspect in at least one case) or not.

Ah thanks for that, what do you mean by 'your personal link'? I sent the Backerclub creators page link in a comment on her Kickstarter page. Not sure if that will count :(

Nick, if you look at your BC profile you should see a refer button. In there you will find links to provide either creators or backers to have the referral noted as coming from you.

Email mark (click Help - Contact us/Have question) and let him know. You might ask the creator to also let Mark know you were the person who referred the project.

In the future make sure to use your personal link from your profile (it changes each time you level/star up)

That's great Nick. Did you find your referral link in your profile for the future?

Once you have over $50 I believe you contact Mark or Billy & ask they transfer the BackerBucks to your PayPal. At least that's how it used to work. If you request transfer under $50 they keep $5.

My latest email from them for the winning contest indicated I'm supposed to tell them what project I want to back but I don't see any way they can back a project for me so I'm a bit confused myself. I guess it's time for me to ask for clarification again to see if the process has changed or if the email was poorly worded as usual. :?
