Market yourself with "News"

August 31st, 2009

We are happy to announce a new feature today for all Starrup members. We made it easy to share your news with your website visitors. Let everyone know when you have an appearance coming up or what you’ve got going on.

Social media is the king of free marketing, so “News” features Twitter support. If you have a Twitter account, when you post a news story it will automatically be posted to your Twitter feed.

Go ahead, Start marketing yourself

It’s easy, just login and click on the news tab to try it out.

If you don’t have an account you can create one in minutes.

We are very excited about the launch of our referral program. We are hearing how much agents, casting directors, and entertainers love Starrup, and are telling all their friends about it. We feel it only makes sense to reward them. That’s why we are paying cash for every referral you make, every month.

Earn 20% of recurring revenue

Whenever a customer enters your referral (coupon) code when they sign up, you will earn 20% of their monthly payments for the life of their website. So for example, if you refer 1 person who signs up for the Max plan, you can earn $86.40 a year ($7.20/month x 12 months) from 1 customer. The more customers you refer the more money you will get paid every month.

Check your earnings whenever you want

By logging into your account you are able to view “my referrals”. Check out the example below.

Get paid often

We will send you a check every time your earnings reaches $100.

You can even get paid for free signups

If a new customer enters your referral code when they sign up for a free plan you still get paid 20% a month once they upgrade to a paying plan.

Start earning today

If you already have an account with us you can login and find your referral code on your account page. If you don’t have an account Signup today and start getting paid.

Let all your friends that may need actor websites, model websites, or entertainer websites how easy it is to get a website through Starrup that they can update themselves. We know they’ll thank you when they have a professional website that’s helping them book more work.

Hi. We're Starrup.

February 9th, 2009

There aren't enough blogs out there, so we added another. This one's about entertainers online. We've got our stake in it. Oh, right, introductions.

Who are we?

We're web guys in Los Angeles, so we meet actors and entertainers all the time. The first thing they say is, "My guy hasn't updated my website," or "my site is ugly", or "I need my new pictures online," and so on. Every entertainer needs a site with the right features and they'll be happy.

So we're creating starrup.com, a service that lets entertainers manage their own website without the tech hassles. We're making it easy to update your headshot, resume, and videos with a few clicks. The business of Hollywood is hard, so we want to make "showing off" easy.

We're launching with some beautiful design options, with more coming regularly. We've got a ton of stuff planned, and we're listening to entertainers to find out how else we can help.

How much will it cost?

We're still working out the details, and we'd love your input! If you fill out our survey, we'll get you first in line, free access when we launch. If you don't have the time, you can just sign up below for beta access, and we'll let you know when it's ready.

Sign up for Beta Access and get notified as soon as Starrup is ready.
