EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REPORT
Be an
ENGAGED PARTNER!
The NCBIA recognizes and understands the challenges our members face, and we are working tirelessly on your behalf. Going through these unprecedented times over the past year, our number one priority remains serving as the voice of our members. You most likely joined because we offer development and connections with others in your field and to enhance your business profile. Joining the NCBIA keeps you abreast of the latest knowledge and practices locally, regionally, and nationally. Being involved and engaged also provides personal advancement. Being a member enables you to deepen your existing business relationships and forge new contacts. Be an active member; join a committee or step up and take up a more prominent role. You can make lasting ties with other professionals in your trade, sharing common interests and similar concerns. The relationships are mostly rich, and an ongoing source of ideas and inspiration. These relationships are a valuable source of information and solutions when you face a challenging situation in your business. Also, the feeling that you have a support system boosts your confidence if there is a problem. Being a partner and being engaged will help the NCBIA develop better relationships with you, but you will also interact and engage with other members. Everyone should be valued for who they are and what they bring to the table. We want you to feel like you are a part of this great association by learning and growing with other like-minded members.

Refer to our 2021 Marketing Guide to see how we can help you market your company to other members as well as consumers, and in turn your investment will help us continue our work. My confidence in the value of membership is unwavering. Whether in the past or today we will remain laser-focused on meeting the needs of and advocating for members and our community. We will continue to concentrate on our mission, “The North Coast Building Industry Association is dedicated to the advancement of the building industry, its members, and the communities it serves,” and provide unparalleled support for our members and strengthen our interest now and in the future.
