NAHB Announces Membership Recruitment Competition Winners
This post has been updated.
NAHB recently announced the winners of its fall recruitment competition, sponsored by LG Electronics, which now includes Associate members.
Congratulations to the following NAHB members, each of whom recruited the most new members in their respective HBA size categories:
- Lauren Amuzzini of Ferguson
- Christy Beck of Caruso Homes
- Jason Carducci of JP Carducci, Inc.
- Parker Finley of PLK Investments
- Matthew Gilchrist of EG Homes LLC
- Jeff Grantham of Grantham Building and Remodeling, LLC
- Drew Hamblen of Fairview Custom Homes, LLC
- Alma Jacobs of Thomas Property Group
- Klodiana Palushi of Best Version Media
The goal of the competition was to recruit as many new members as possible, with each recruiter having their own reasons to help grow the Federation.
“As a leader in our Federation at all levels, I have seen the impact of state and NAHB advocacy on many fronts and understand that we’re stronger together and we can move our association and industry ’Forward Together,’” said Grantham, “which was my mantra as I served as the president of the Home Builders Association of Michigan.”
The successful recruiters navigated their industry connections and passion for home building in their pitches.
“We all have contacts in our phone and encounter people every day who are also in our industry,” said Grantham. “Those potential members just need to be invited to join you as a member, to invest in their industry, their business and their professional development. It’s actually an easy ask once you understand the reason to belong.”
“What you get from the Association reflects the effort you put into it,” added Hamblen.
For their efforts, all winners will be rewarded with a trip to the New York City area, which includes an opportunity to experience Signature Kitchen Suite’s all-new Skyline Showroom.
