From the second thread in Provider Ads, here is the process for requesting VP status:
Verified Provider process for ECCIE (Please Read)
Ladies, you may post a weekly ad in this section once you have been upgraded to Verified Provider.
Submit your info to the staff at
dallas@eccie.net
1. website address (your website or advertising site)
BP ads are not considered.
2. referral from another provider or hobbyist
Well established member must email a vouch for you to dallas@eccie.net
3. links to reviews from recognized members (any site)
Any combination of the above requirements which will sufficiently establish you as a legit provider will be accepted.
The verification process could take 24-48 hours.
I added the comments in
blue to #1 & 2 for clarification.
This should get you started.
