Southeast Regional Report: July - August 2018

The Southeast continues to impress in 2018. We are currently up 2% from 2017 with over 12,000 members recruited. Great job! As we enter the summer months, we must strive to stay ahead of last year. Summer shows are typically slower so we will have to work extra hard to secure those memberships. Life membership is still at $600, paid in full only; use that to your advantage!

It helps to limit the number of bad applications that come back from processing, mostly due to the following:

• Credit card numbers not written down correctly- #1 issue!
• Incorrect expiration date from credit cards
• Illegible handwriting on the applications
• Incomplete mailing addresses

Please be sure to double check that all member information is correct. If the information isn’t correct, processing is delayed, the member doesn’t receive his/her packet in a timely manner and you may not receive your commission!

It can be overwhelming at shows when multiple people want to join at once. Remember, they are choosing to sign up for NRA. They will wait because they want to! It’s ok to take the time to make sure all information is correct.

Summer travel season is approaching which means I will be in and out of the office attending shows across the country. Please let me know if there is anything that I can help you with to make your show season successful. Again, thank you all for your hard work and dedication to the NRA!
