We are changing our membership structure and pricing in 2018

Introducing our new membership tiers for 2018

As an organisation we are now over 2000 members strong and our aim is to continue to grow in 2018. In order to do this and provide members with all of the services we would like to offer, we needed to review our pricing structure. This was discussed at our recent executive meeting with our regional branch presidents and it was agreed that there would be a price increase next year.

We hope this does not cause any undue stress for any of you (and if it does – please call us). We have worked hard to keep our prices as low as possible but in order to deliver what members say they would like to see more of we have no other option. However, as a sweetener, we are ensuring that every member will receive two complimentary tickets to our annual Hospitality Summit. This year we held the Summit in  Wellington in October and plan to hold next year’s Summit in Christchurch. Tickets to the Summit this year were priced at $190 so, in essence, you are getting more for your money with that one offer.

We have increased the team serving the helpline as this continues to be what members tell us is a top benefit. Additionally, we have increased our list of savings to members (and will continue to do so). We are planning more professional development around the country and more new initiatives, which will be released as we head into 2018.

We are finalising an offering for members that will be available next year. This new offering will be an online platform for managing all of your compliance worries – which includes local council bylaws – and the platform has been tailored to be meaningful to all areas of the country. We hope you like it and look forward to telling you more about this in the near future as this will be offered as part of a premium membership.
