Interesting…
[FONT=tahoma,sans-serif]From: “COR Listmanager” <COR.listmanager@www.ashi.org> “Council of Representatives” <COR.74128@www.ashi.org> (Recipients of ‘COR’ suppressed) Inspector Benefits Tue, 23 Jan 2007 23:12:59 -0600
There are some inspector organizations that offer a huge list of benefits. Truth be known, most of these benefits are available to anyone.
For example. 10% discount on ITA Classes.
Anyone can get this discount if they sign up and pay for an ITA class 30 days in advance.
I would like someone to check out all of the benefits available to all inspectors and we can publish them in the Reporter in the CoR section. We don’t need to point out that other organizations offer those as benefits, we just let everyone know they are available.
Then we could add the benefits that are only to ASHI members. This is one way to combat the propaganda distributed by other organizations with out picking a fight with them. We are simply letting inspectors know what is available.
This will also help destroy the stigma that ASHI is a bunch of elitist inspectors. We let our members know where they can get discounts even if it doesn’t make ASHI money. In return, we get more members and thereby make more money.
Anyone want to take up this task?
We also need articles for the Cor section of the Reporter, so get your thinking caps on and start writing.

No other association in the world compares with NACHI’s benefits. I welcome his comparison charts…

What a nut.
First, 10% off isn’t a member benefit… it’s a sales pitch. Benefits are FREE.
Second, most of the deals offered by vendors in www.InspectorMALL.com are NACHI EXCLUSIVES .
Third, nearly all of http://www.nachi.org/benefits.htm are NACHI member EXCLUSIVES … non-members can’t get them.
Fourth, many of the NACHI EXCLUSIVES aren’t even listed on our www.nachi.org/benefits.htm page… you have to find them on this message board.
And fifth, if Scott knew how many more benefits we’re working on to add to our www.nachi.org/benefits.htm list in 2007 (nearly doubling the number of benefits in the next 12 months, without raising dues), and again… all NACHI EXCLUSIVES … he’d wet his pants.
ASHI should have a contest with themselves between their entrance requirement department and their member benefit department to see which department comes up with one first. Currently the score is all tied at zero to zero.
