Membership Questions

Can I Come As A Guest Before Joining?

You can!
Book into an event and join us for breakfast to see how you like the group. If you like what you see then simply fill in the form, pay the invoice that will be sent to you and you’ll be a member!

What Is The Joining Process?

Fill in our form  and you will hear back from our membership coordinator.  All the members will be notified of your application. You will be sent an invoice for the joining fee and first quarter meeting fees and voila! You’re in!

What Are the Membership Fees?

There is an initial joining fee of just $50! This includes a listing on our website.

Plus a quarterly membership fee of $22.50, and a quarterly meeting fee of $177.50 – applicable even if you are unable to attend.

A percentage of the fees go towards community support and catering costs.

Do I Have To Be The Only One In My Profession Or Line Of Work To Join?

No. We believe that variety is the spice of life and that professionals in the same industry can have productive discussions without treading on each others toes.

Are There Any Member Obligations?

To be a member, all you need to do is turn up to breakfast and keep up with your membership dues. Some members get together outside the meetings to collaborate or socialise, but this is entirely up to them.

Will I Need To Get Up And Speak In Front Of Everyone?

You will be invited to introduce yourself at your first meeting and have the opportunity to share news about your business with the whole group at any meeting. However, you may prefer to talk to people more one-on-one or just those at your table for breakfast.

What’s Your Policy On Proxies Or Subs If A Member Can’t Come To A Meeting?

If you can’t attend, you can send a substitute, but there is no membership requirement to do so.  Please let us know if you cannot attend so we can adjust catering numbers.
