You will also receive the official PPOC Canada Magazine. The PPOC also offers benefit options for you and your family as well as incomparable insurance and merchant rates with MasterCard and Visa.

 

 

Membership… how to get the most of it

 

1. Get involved! Come to meetings and conventions. Come even if you think that the subject is not interesting to you. You will meet with other photographers, people to share ideas with, learn with and from.

 

2. Get involved in committees: Committee work will earn you service merits toward CPA and MPA awards.

 

Some committees are:

  • Convention Committees

  • Special Events

  • Print Show at the convention

  • Public awareness committee

  • Various other committees

 

3. Remember most of our members are open to share price lists, techniques, ideas for locations, and will share ideas on what doesAND doesn’t work. One of the main objectives of our association is to promote professional photography to the community at large.

 

And with so many people believing that a digital camera and a few mega pixels will make great photos, being a member of PPOC MB can help differentiate you from the crowd and demonstrate to your prospective clients that you are BETTER!

 

As you can see the list of benefits of membership is lengthy and you owe it to yourself as a professional to take advantage of them by joining today.

 

Your future is worth it! I would like to personally invite you to come out to a meeting with no obligation, to meet our members and see for yourself what membership can do for you.

 

And begining in March 2008, we have a monthly "open house" where you can drop in at a member's studio for coffee, cookies, and casual talk about how PPOC MB can really launch your business. Use the Contact link below to find the date and time.

 

 

Sincerely,
PPOC-MB Membership Chairman
