Buyer's Guide

One of the biggest assets of our Chapter is the corporate partner program. The companies engaged in this program generously contribute their industry expertise and financial support, playing a crucial role in delivering top-tier education to our members. Their partnership is foundational to our existence.

Below, the Buyer's Guide details our partners and the diverse services they provide. Some offer cost-effective solutions, others excel in quality, and a few might introduce you to products or services you hadn't realized were indispensable. We encourage you to explore their offerings and allow them the opportunity to demonstrate their potential impact on your club.

​Engaging with our partners entails no commitment—reaching out to a representative or visiting their website is a pressure-free way to discover how they can contribute to your club's success. Often, this exploration leads to unexpected and valuable discoveries. Remember, as a club manager, the relationships you foster with your vendors are not just transactional; they are integral to what you offer your members. Building and maintaining those relationships should be on your radar on a weekly, if not daily, basis.
