I have been both the CEO of the NACFB and working as a volunteer at the control centre at the London Olympic Games which has been an extremely memorable, once in a lifetime experience.
With the interest that the games have generated, it is understandable that there has been a bit of a slow-down generally, as people shift their focus to the Olympics and get behind Team GB, but the case seems to be the reverse in terms of applications to the NACFB! We are pleased to report that the office has seen a substantial increase in membership enquiries over the last few weeks and this is largely down to the increased profile that the Association has been working on so closely over the last year or so.
Additionally, there are an impressive number of applications currently in the pipeline, with brokers eager to become members and take advantage of the range of benefits membership brings. Again, these applications are largely down to the increased profile that the Association has enjoyed in recent years, but new benefits that the NACFB has introduced to members have also been influential to applicants, such as exclusive schemes with particular funders and lead referral systems. More incentives are also in store for the membership so watch this space...
And the best of luck to Team GB!
