Mr. Rowan

Congratulations -- Hope Inspection Depot will be giving big discounts to NACHI members for education hrs -- It will help us to become CMIs

We might need it if licensing keeps going the way ASHI wants it

Once again congratulations

I for one could kiss ASHI's lobbyists and hope they keep going the way they have been... legislating themselves into obscurity. Remember, fake credential-only, no-member benefits to speak of associations get wiped out wherever licensing is adopted. Keep cutting your throat ASHI, keep watching your membership numbers decline, keep failing to make membership in your diploma mill mandatory anywhere in the world, and keep pushing for licensing where inspectors will get their credentials from the state and get everything else from NACHI... ding dongs.

and music to non-CMI's ears too John.

If the best in our industry will raise their pricing they will pull up the rest of us underneath them. We should all be charging 3 times what we are as a profession.

Are there any folks who bought the CMI logo who can say they have noticed any significant increase in income?
