2023 Membership Drive: Never a Better Time to Join
NAHB recently kicked off its annual membership drive, which not only aims to recruit new members, but also highlight the value of membership in the Federation to current members as well.
From April 1 to June 30, members of local HBAs across the nation participate in the drive by reaching out to coworkers, colleagues and friends in the industry to promote the numerous benefits of membership. Whether they want to save money on business expenses, expand their knowledge with industry-leading education or network with more people in the industry, members can receive a significant return on their investment.
- Member-Exclusive Savings — The NAHB Member Savings Program offers exclusive deals with popular vendors to help members save on personal and business expenses. T-Mobile, Farmers Insurance, Goodyear Tires and Voyager Fuel & Fleet Management Mastercard are the latest companies to join. Plus, the program continues to feature significant discounts through Lowe’s, Dell Technologies, UPS and many other leading companies. Learn more.
- Industry-Specific Education — Membership unlocks discounts on numerous instructor-led courses and webinars to help members stay in the know and ahead of the competition.

Incentives for Successful Membership Drives
For the first time, NAHB is offering local HBAs that meet recruitment goals during the drive a free pass and travel stipend to IBS 2024 in Las Vegas. HBAs can also receive a $500 cash bonus for achieving more than 6% net member growth during the drive.
A free pass to IBS opens the door to the home building industry’s premier annual event, where tens of thousands of attendees meet with vendors, network with colleagues and attend educational sessions.
