Lots to do with limited resources
Need to expand membership services and benefits
Need for recruiting and retention tools
Need for revenue generation sources beyond membership dues

PartnerShip Successes
“NBAA and PartnerShip launched the NBAA Shipping Program in fall 2010. In the first quarter of
2011 alone the program saved NBAA Members more than $35,000 on their FedEx shipping costs.
Many companies have already saved more than the cost of their annual dues investment. NBAA
could not be happier with the bottom line results, and we hope additional Member companies will
take advantage of this great opportunity moving forward.”
Vice President Membership Marketing
National Business Aviation Association
“The NSGA Discount Shipping Program is the most widely used service by our members. On
average, participants enjoy annual savings in excess of $1,000, which more than covers their
annual membership dues. In addition, the PartnerShip team provides the highest level of
customer service to our association and members. Thank you, PartnerShip!”
Director of Membership & Sales
National Sporting Goods Association
“PartnerShip is always inquiring about what is working and what isn’t so they can continually
evolve to satisfy my members. They work with me on any issue I may have and make it a very
easy process for me. They are great with keeping up with our industry news so they can be more
effective. They are not only supportive but are very active at our shows. Our members have
taken notice and appreciate this. They keep me stocked with fresh material and are always
thinking ahead to the next piece. Thanks PartnerShip for supplying N.T.E.A./N.T.D.A. with the
highest level of support and service!”
