Almost 300 HBAs Signed Up for National Membership Day

Nearly 300 HBAs are participating in National Membership Day on Tuesday, May 22. During the day, more prizes will be awarded to successful recruiters than ever before, thanks to Whirlpool, NAHB’s exclusive membership sponsor.

“The value to National Membership Day is that everything you need to participate is provided by NAHB, from the overall structure of the day to enticing incentives,” said Duane Bickett, NAHB membership chairman and co-host of the membership day Webcast from 2:00-5:00 p.m. ET on the NAHB Web site, www.nahb.org. “This is especially good for locals without a large budget to devote to membership campaigns.”

 

 

The Chillerator, from Whirlpool, is the top recruiter prize for National Membership Day.

“Between the double Spike points, the Grill & Chill cooler, and the trivia prizes during the Webcast, National Membership Day has something every member can get excited about” he said.

To be eligible for these National Membership Day incentives, members must belong to participating local associations that:

  • Have completed and returned the “Commit to Call” to NAHB by Friday, May 4.

  • Call the National Membership Day Hotline, 800-899-6242, between noon and 5:00 p.m. ET to report new member pledge totals for the month of May.

  • Submit your monthly reports and payment to NAHB by May 31.


Members of participating local home builders associations that participate are eligible for:

  • A Chill and Grill Travel Cooler available to members who earn a total of six new member Spike credits in May

  • Double Spike credits during the month of May

  • Participation in national membership competitions for recruitment, retention and participation, and Whirlpool’s giveaways.


Whirlpool Provides Top Prizes for National Membership Day

The  Chillerator — the only Energy Star®-rated refrigerator designed to handle the temperature extremes of the garage environment — is the top recruiter prize.

New this year, all members who earn six retention credits in May will be automatically entered into a drawing for one of two KitchenAid Stand Mixers.

If your association is not registered to participate, take the “Commit to Call” form, or forward this article with a personal message, to your local EO and let them know you want to participate and compete.
