NBFAA Double Bonu$ Program Results in Win for All

Nearly 300 New NBFAA Members take advantage of Double Bonu$ program

Irving, TX, Aug. 19, 2005 - As the first round of the New Member Double Bonus Program comes to an end, the National Burglar & Fire Alarm Association (NBFAA) had nearly 300 new member companies take advantage of the benefits and discounts the program offered.

The program began in February with three sponsoring organizations: ADI, Criticom International, and the National Training School (NTS). New member companies who joined the association between Feb. 15 and Aug. 15 will receive a total of $150 in incentives ($50 from ADI, Criticom and NTS) over and above the discounts and services available to all 2005 members.

Senior Director of Business Development Tonja Jenkins said the program was the brainchild of NBFAA Vice President Counte Cooley and they both believe it was a win-win situation for all.

“It's a win for the new member, win for the state association, win for the sponsors, a win for the NBFAA and most importantly, a win for current members - because they have another 300 fellow companies helping to bear the responsibility of supporting the industry,” she said.

In addition to the gift certificates, both ADI and Criticom International will make a donation of $50 to NBFAA for each new member company - which NBFAA will in turn share with the Chartered State Associations (CSAs) that have signed up to promote the program.
