MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS
The following are some of the benefits Monograms America members receive:
Access To A Name and Logo With National Recognition: Members have permission to use the following MAI trademarked names: Monograms America owns the trademarks for Monograms America, Monograms Plus and Monograms Today. These names may be used not only on your physical stores but also on your web sites (to build instant creditability with you consumers). Below is a picture of one of our member's store fronts, using the Monograms Plus title. You must have a storefront to apply for membership to Monograms America, Inc.
Monthly Newsletter: Our newsletter, “Network", contains valuable information on the best selling products. A wealth of ideas including technology and market trends is offered in the monthly newsletter.
Protected Territory: Each member is entitled to a 50 mile radius protected territory which allows for a non-threatening free exchange of ideas between members. This protection is vital and strictly adhered to.
Preferred Pricing and Supply Discounts: Members receive special discounts on merchandise, equipment, embroidery supplies and fixtures as a result of the volume buying of an association.
Private Web Site for Members Only: In the Members Only Web Site, members have instant access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to the merchandise list, stock photos (for your web site or brochures), discount pricing list, vendors list, membership list, brochure content, events, event registration, newsletters, transfers, and a discussion forum.
Would you like the opportunity to network with businesses like yours? Would you like to know what their best selling merchandise is? The semi-annual Monograms America convention offers this opportunity. Our members support each other through sharing buying and operational decisions. Members also support each other through long lasting friendships.
Mark your calendars for these very important conventions in January and in July. Plan on arriving in Atlanta prior to the Monograms America Convention to shop the Atlanta Gift Show with our members. Based on member feedback, the conventions will focus on winning marketing ideas, exchange of policies and procedures, employee concerns, pricing, etc. As always we will include the ever-popular hit parade (members sharing their best sellers), purchase order exchange (new orders just written at the market), and vendor forum (private shopping with discounts) as part of our meeting. You need to be a member of Monograms America to attend our convention and receive our monthly newsletter. If you are not a member and are interested in joining Monograms America, please contact us MonoAmer@aol.com or please call 800-934-0457 / 800-934-0407 to request additional information.
Additional benefits include marketing support and credit card transaction service.
