Default Re: Toronto Convention now just $99!

Todd:

$499 for non-members.
$99 for members.

We are considering raising the non-member entrance fee to $2,000.00.

Well, that is interesting. I suppose you lowered the entrance fee do to over booking?



I can still remember about 4 years ago when you promised Mark that any unpaid expences( for a NACHI chapter meeting) would be paid by you, as it turned out Mark was stuck with the bill. Thusly there were no more meetings. Nick you are such a dog.ed?...hardly.

I guess Bill Mullen won't be getting any money back! But CAHPI/National will foot the bill so it will be a right off.

Lots of none members enjoy comming to the NACHI BB to help and to learn and then there is some like Mr. Allen who show their jealousy.

Is RR still going to the show? He said he was..... Hmmm.
If we get the same % of U.S. inspectors in Toronto as they had Canadian inspectors last year in Florida it would be a very full house. And that beats your 2 pair.

Aww Roy, you beat me to it... I was going to say a simple question from a simple person!

I do find it amazing how some can not realize when you have large organization, you cannot please everyone.
Those with intelligence realize this and know, that if something did not go the way they like it it still does not mean the organization is bad or wrong.
However some think, (I know I do) the world revolves around their opinions only. (In fact I am so opinionated, I sometimes have two opinions about the same subject! )
Everyone needs to realize, that some times you have to roll with the punches. And of course if the situation does not go the way you hoped, then get on with your life. If you are going to write on some BB about poor you and how the rest of the world is wrong, the only thing that really happens is that others realize how small your brain is.
Toddy baby, it is time for you to make positive suggestions here. You can contribute in a positive way, to the human race,,,,,, let's go for it!

Besides, look at Nick's posting earlier today... it is great! I have posted it on the OAHI forum and hope some will take advantage of it.
Todd I personally invite you to pay $99 and come to a convention that can help any home inspector, if they put their mind in a positive frame.

As I remember it Mark was short $40.00 and he submitted it to you and got nothing, and yes he followed the rules.

I do 2-4 inspections a week, and send at least 10 a week to my HI friends. This weeks inspections (3) totaled over $1300. I am now the second most expensive inspector in Tucson.

As for the convention I wish you luck, and I understand why it is in Toronto. However, I think a gig in Vegas would do the Org. a bit better.

Todd, I don't know who he is but if he remained a member for 2 years without paying... I'd say that offset his $40, no?

In Canada denial of the right to advertise a logo of a membership that one holds is governed by the association by-laws. As such I have not received a copy of any official bylaws from NACHI. Have you or matter of fact any other member? If so - I would be interested in reading and seeing such a document.

A Canadian inspector could also claim that one is creating a "monoply" if they are denied the right to advertise their "legal" affiliation. That is also covered under the "Competition Act".
