NEFBA membership benefits are tangible

Realty Builder
NEFBA

The value of belonging to a strong trade association is not lost on most astute business men and women.

There’s strength in numbers. There are networking opportunities. There’s training in construction innovations and processes, marketing and business operations.

Membership brings a source of new business opportunities. These are the intangible benefits of membership. Everyone is aware of them, recognizes their benefit, but they are difficult to measure.

NEFBA, of course, offers all those benefits. I may be biased, but I believe we offer them more abundantly and more effectively than any other trade association.

Today, however, I want to remind you of the quantifiable — money-in-your-pocket — benefits of NEFBA membership. Currently, nearly 30 members offer real discounts and savings opportunities to NEFBA members. Check NEFBA’s website, www.nefba.com, for a complete list and start taking advantage of discounts of up to 20 percent on an array of services and products from legal and financial services to sporting goods.

With your NEFBA membership you can receive discounts offered by the Florida Home Builders Association. All members can participate in FHBA’s affiliation with the National Purchasing Partners. For builders and remodelers, FHBA offers a member rebate program. For more information about FHBA’s discount programs, visit the FHBA website, fhba.com, click on “join fhba,” then “member benefits”.

Through the National Association of Home Builders, your NEFBA membership is also a ticket to discounts from national companies for office supplies, computers, construction materials, motel accommodations, car rentals, shipping needs, automobiles, fuel, steaks, electronic payments and, yes, even flowers. Visit nahb.com for details.

Your NEFBA membership will pay for itself when you take advantage of the real-money savings offered locally and at the state and national levels.

By the way, adding your company to our list of discount providers will give you more exposure with a listing on the NEFBA website, and you can expect to see members coming through the door.

Sincerely,

Daniel Blanchard

NEFBA president
