Members will have an opportunity to voice their opinions, non-members wont.  :)

Sorry Joe but it's not as simple as that. If they are going to retain and recruit members they are going to have to be a bit more switch on.

Ken summed it up earlier

"If the members in attendance like it, it'll be voted through. If they don't, the board are obliged to act accordingly".

You cant change things from the outside.

Joe,
Im sure been a member has its benefits, all i can say is that in 15 years i have never been asked if i am a member of the NCCA, and no customer has ever mentioned the organisation to me.
Thats why i came to the conclusion that no-one knows who they are or what they are about!

The new logo is absolute rubbish. I can not believe professional designers came up with that load of crap. Showed the wife earlier today and she said exactly the same as me. I think I`ll make this my last year of membership.

Think i have to agree with you on that point and as another established cleaner also have never been asked and if you went in the street and asked any member of public asking who are the nnca you would get a blank face.

It will never be a disadvantage not being a member.

Sack the board i say ;D ;D

Will members who cant attend because we dont live within a 100 mile driving distance be allowed to vote.

I just got the letter today and definately dont want the change.

Hi,
I would like to also echo what Mark has said above I also live further than 100 miles away and do not want that particular change.

Doug it used to be CCA many years ago then changed to NCCA.

Hi Tony

I know thats why I put a wink.

I was making a serious point though, that the shorter the aplhabet soup the more memorable, 3 letters is optimum in my opinon.

Cheers

What carpet cleaners really want is a new, fresh dynamic organisation geared towards promoting and marketing so that every housewife in the counytry understands using a member is a wise and safe bet.

 

The main thing the NCCA needs is some competition, otherwise it has no real motivation to change.

if they spent more time getting the housewife on there side instead of trying to enrol new members, the latter would take care of itself.

You need to get a few of you together and vote on the subject as you will be a member for hopefully another 20 years :)

How many carpet cleaners are there in the country ? 2000, 3000, 4000 ?

How many menbers has the NCCA got ? 400, 500, 600 ?

I dont know why we spend so much time talking about them.
