NAHB Chairman: Recognize Top Member Recruiters During Spike Appreciation Month

For that reason, NAHB has designated the month of November as Spike Appreciation Month — an opportunity for HBAs and industry professionals to recognize those who consistently help in member recruitment and retention efforts, many of whom are known as “Spikes.”
