- Take advantage of the promotional opportunities to Maximize Your Membership. Post submissions to the “Member News.” Example: Articles, promotion of products or services, courses, training, or offer a member-to-member special. Note: Keep your posts to a maximum of once per week. We recommend you post at least one article or service/training per month to gain recognition for what you offer. Login to your account, create a post in the Member News, post an event or connect on the Forum (Community).
- Connect with your fellow members. Make an effort to connect with the other members through the Forum. Share ideas or tips to help them…be supportive. People like doing business with a helpful person, and it’s the best way to get referrals from other members.
- Watch the members list for new members, and make sure you take a few minutes to introduce yourself and welcome them.
- Get involved! People will remember you by your conversations on the forum and by seeing your name in the membership directory. The more active you are in your membership, the more they will remember you!
- Refer business to fellow members and use their services whenever possible. What goes around, comes around!
- Promote, promote, promote! The more members that join the NLP Global Standards Association, the more valuable it becomes for all of us.
- Add your event to our events calendar using your membership login information.
- Show your affiliation: Are you proud to be an NLP Global Standards Association member? Show your affiliation on your company website. You received the NLP Global Standards Seal in your Welcome letter when you signed up as a member. Please post it on your website with a link to the NLPGS site. Then all you have to do is link it to our URL: www.NLPGlobalStandards.com
- And make sure your contact information in the directory is up to date. To have your picture show up in the membership directory, you will have to create an *Avatar. To do so, go to www.gravatar.com and set up an account. You will need to upload your picture to your Gravatar account. Use the same email address you used to join the NLPGS Association, and your profile picture will automatically show up in your profile on your NLP Global Standards Association membership site.

* An avatar is the graphical representation of the user or the user’s alter ego or character. When setting up your avatar for your profile, we suggest you use a picture of yourself and not a cartoon character. Unless, of course, it is a better representation of your work.
