Sally Brush, Owner, Custom Plus, Inc.:

Working in a home office can make you feel cut off from the rest of the world. The HWLBA offers me a chance to network with other business owners and work on events that benefit our community.

Linda Bonham, Advantage Tax & Financial Services
I joined the Highland White Lake Business Association so that I could become acquainted with other business owners in the area.  In my contact with clients I am often asked for referrals to other business professionals and I wanted to personally know the companies that I am referring to.  HWLBA has helped me meet many business and helped me become more involved in the community where I work and live.  I am very committed to shopping in and utilizing the businesses in our area.  I've received other benefits from belonging.  Today I met with a new client who got my name from the annual HWLBA calendar.  I've also utilized the bulk mailing benefit that is offered.  I saved $238 on the mailing I just did - more than enough to cover my yearly dues.

Newsletter

You need to explain if non members can get this newsletter.  And why do they want it.  Can non members go to the coffees and lunches, special events, etc?  If so, why should anyone pay membership?
