The
ISA Board of Directors is excited to announce a new category of non-designated
ISA membership, available to businesses that provide related services to the
appraisal community.
The
"Affinity Business Partner"
(ABP) membership category was developed to formalize, expand and build ISA's
existing relationships with allied businesses and organizations and to form new
business relationships and opportunities for ISA members and our clients.
ABP
members will enjoy targeted access to approximately 800 ISA members and share
the common goal of providing the highest level of professional and ethical
service to consumers of appraisal services.
Examples
of categories of businesses ISA hopes to include are those offering financial
services to antique and art collectors and dealers, auction companies, storage
companies, restoration services, moving companies specializing in antiques and
art, conservators, estate law firms, insurance companies and industry
publications.
Benefits

Designated ABP Webpage on the ISA Website, including hot-linked company logo
and up to 50 words of business description.

All revenues raised by the Affinity Business Partner

effectiveness of personal property appraisers” by supporting professional
educational programs and continuing education to members.
We need ISA
member support to help build this exciting new program. Please invite your
business contacts to join with ISA! The potential benefit to ISA members and to
our Affinity Business Partners is significant, including the development of
new, invested sources of referrals to members.

Membership is open to companies who employ appraisers. However, the category is not open to
businesses whose primary focus is appraising.
