Communication Packages

Leading the Way Guide Contents

Package Options

The following options are available. You can order your communication package on-line at http://www.nama.org/leader/packageform.htm.

Basic Package

This package includes up to twelve (12) communications to chapter members by e-mail. Mailings are available at the a la carte price. A communication will count as any email or letter forwarded to the list requested by the chapter. This could include executive committee, neighboring chapters, etc. For example: A NAMA Chapter would like to send an e-mail to their members and the executive committee about an upcoming meeting. They forward a copy of the e-mail to the NAMA office. This counts as one communication. If in two weeks the chapter would like to send out another notice about the same meeting in the same fashion, this will count as another communication.

A la Carte

Chapter communications can be enhanced through e-mail or postal mailings to all members at a per-communication cost (see the definition of a communication under “Basic Package”).

(Note: NAMA cannot send attachments with email broadcasts.)

Package Costs

A chapter may choose between the following communications packages:

Basic Package
Small Chapter - $100
Medium Chapter - $200
Large Chapter - $400

A la Carte - Pay for each communication
Small Chapter - $10
Medium Chapter - $20
Large Chapter - $40

(Note: Small Chapter = up to 40 members; Medium Chapter = 41 – 74 members; Large Chapter = 75 members or more)

Communication Enhancements

The basic e-mail communications included in the packages may be enhanced by the use of supplemental postal mailings. These services are provided at-cost and are in addition to the package cost.

Mailing - Postal mailing to all members. Cost: $.04 per page (if copied or letterhead supplied by the NAMA office); $.04 per envelope; plus current postage cost.

Labels - All chapters may obtain 2 sets of mailing address labels, (for their chapter members) per month from the NAMA office for chapter purposes at no cost. Labels requests above 2 sets per month, or for chapters other than your own, are $.20 per label.

Time Requirements

Correspondence to be communicated to chapter members should be e-mailed, faxed or mailed to Debbie Brummel in the NAMA office. Documents should be designed, proofed and ready for distribution. Please provide e-mail information to the NAMA office at least 24 business hours in advance of the target distribution date. Postal mailings should be received at least 48 business hours prior to the target date.

Name Badges

NAMA can supply name badges for all of your chapter meetings for one price:

Small Chapter $25
Medium Chapter $35
Large Chapter $50

If you decide to pay per badge, rather than paying one annual fee, the cost is $.50 per badge. Contact Debbie Brummel at debbieb@nama.org to request badges. Please allow at least 24 hours.

Meeting Registration Processes

Chapters are welcome to have attendees register for chapter meetings via the NAMA registration site. Credit card fees are deducted from the next chapter check. Please allow at least 24 hours to set this up. If interested or if you have questions, contact Debbie Brummel at debbieb@nama.org.
