Ambassador Program

What is a Paisley Ambassador?

An ambassador is a Paisley member who takes on a community role — helping freelancers in their region discover cooperative work, and earning PAI tokens for real contributions.

How does it apply to me?

Ambassadors do the things platforms can't — build trust in their community, explain the model in their own language, and help people who are ready to make a change.

🤝

Welcome new members

Help freelancers in your area get started. Answer questions, share your experience, make the first steps easier.

🌍

Represent your region

Translate content, organize local conversations, or run a regional group. Be the voice Paisley doesn't have on the ground yet.

✍️

Create and share

Write about your experience, record a video, explain the model to your audience. Your story reaches people we can't reach alone.

📣

Grow through referrals

Share your referral link. When the people you bring in succeed, you earn PAI tokens that reflect your contribution to the network.

💬

Shape the product

Early ambassadors get direct access to the team. Your feedback on what works — and what doesn't — directly influences what gets built.

🏘️

Organize locally

Run a meetup, a WhatsApp group, a Discord, or a Telegram community for freelancers in your country or city.

What you earn

PAI tokens reward real contributions — not just how many people you sign up. The more you help the ecosystem, the more you earn.

Activity Reward
Successful referral — new member joins PAI tokens
Content creation (post, video, guide) PAI tokens
Translation of Paisley materials PAI tokens
Regional community organizing PAI tokens
Onboarding and peer support PAI tokens

PAI token amounts are set at launch. Accumulating PAI does not grant extra votes — Paisley governance remains one member, one vote. PAI is a reward for contribution, not a power structure.

How ambassadors are recognized

Four levels reflect increasing contribution and responsibility. You move up by doing the work, not by recruiting volume alone.

Pathfinder

Getting started

You've joined as an ambassador and made your first contributions — referrals, early feedback, or introducing Paisley in your community. Every ambassador begins here.

Steward

Active contributor

A consistent presence in your local community. You're regularly helping new members, answering questions, and creating content or translations that serve your region.

Envoy

Regional leader

You're running something — a regional community, a translation effort, a recurring event. You're the person other members in your area look to for guidance.

Vanguard

Ecosystem builder

You helped build this. Sustained, significant impact on Paisley's growth and community health. Vanguard ambassadors are recognized as founding contributors to the cooperative.

Not just for freelancers

Ambassadors are anyone who believes in cooperative models and has a community to bring along with them.

If you run a freelancer community, teach independent work, organize in your city, or simply have the trust of people who need what Paisley offers — this program is designed for you.

💻 Freelancers and independent workers
🏘️ Community organizers and leaders
🎓 Educators and content creators
