I ran across this bit of wisdom by Allisa Jacobs on FNO, while she was not talking about a metals guild, it seems to fit...
Motivates Excellence - being around other amazing crafters & small businesses challenges us to improve our own shops & approaches
Finding Inspiration - awesomeness often leads to even more awesomeness
Celebrate & Collaborate - teaming up can be such a powerful & rewarding experience.
Feels Good - being part of a community means that at some point you're going to give back, share, help...and that just feels good and fuels your drive to towards your goal
Stay in the Loop - I don't know how many times I thought, how does everyone know about this stuff?
