| Top 10 Benefits of Being an NDSN Member: |
| |
- The typical NDSN Chapter meeting agenda creates a focused and professional business meeting that starts on time and ends on time. The Chapter meeting includes business brags and one-minute commercials by each member in attendance, announcements about the Chapter and the NDSN, company spotlight (demo of the month) presentations on a rotating basis, and an educational training topic or guest speaker.
- Your Chapter is an IRS qualified non-profit organization. Each Chapter is covered under the NDSN’s 501c3 non-profit status.
- Operating under the NDSN non-profit umbrella, each Chapter is permitted to organize and sponsor charitable events under the legal and binding trade license held by the NDSN. These events include: Multi-Vendor Quarter Auction, Ultimate Home Party Bingo, Basket Bingo Party, Business Bunco, and other activities created by the NDSN.
- Relationships formed with other members in the Chapter is one of the foundational principles upon which NDSN was built, and continues to be one of the greatest benefits that our members enjoy. Sharing ideas and experiences with other business-building direct sales professionals affords our members all the benefits that networking has to offer.
- Power of networking through an NDSN Chapter is exemplified through our monthly Power Partners Program. Strictly defined parameters ensure that our members receive quality business leads on a monthly basis, thereby building their business month after month, exponentially. Even one qualified lead is better than 15 cold calls.
- Every member is given exclusive, member only access to NDSN University, our online training forum where members can explore, research, and download business building tools, documents and resources specific to the direct sales profession. Free live tele-classes are offered monthly where members can learn from experts in the direct sales field. These tele-classes are also archived in the member area of the website.
- Often times direct sales professionals lack a local connection to their upline and other educational resources. NDSN Chapters provide a wealth of opportunities to receive “hands-on” training from your peers. Only other direct sellers can truly understand the ups and downs of the sales cycle, will be there to offer advice & direction in the slow times, and also celebrate successes and accomplishments. We also train our members on the importance of professional etiquette and effective networking skills.
- In an effort to provide the most qualified and timely business leads, each NDSN Chapter is provided with a Chapter website. The Chapter website features each member’s name, company name, photo, business bio and links to their personal website and/or email address (as permitted by their company’s internet policy).
- NDSN guarantees every member exclusivity of membership for their direct sales company in their Chapter. Our policy allows only one representative per direct sales company per Chapter. As the exclusive member for their company, each member has guaranteed participation in a loyalty network with the other businesses in their Chapter.
And, the number ONE benefit of NDSN membership is…..
- With an NDSN membership, our members are getting more “bang for their buck”. Unlike other networking organizations charging upwards of $250-$500 a year for membership, we offer a value added investment in your business. For what amounts to less than a $5 per month investment, our members realize far more in profits for their business. As a result of participating in a networking organization that works, our members see an average sales increase of 23%**. And, unlike other networking organizations, we do not charge monthly meeting fees in addition to your annual membership fee. As an added benefit, we also offer Referral Rewards for sharing the benefits of Chapter membership with other like-minded direct sales professionals who join a local Chapter.
** Individual results will vary.
