Why Should I Join? They do all these things at little or no cost with the utmost efficiency for both large and small firms. In short, they help themselves. That’s why businesses participate in associations. . . . it’s a sound investment!
Businesses participate in trade and professional associations because they can accomplish more collectively than they can individually. Associations help members solve mutual problems, channel resources, exchange information, develop leadership, promote the industry or profession as a whole, guard against adverse outside influences, and benefit from fulltime consultants without additional payroll.
