Again we can’t tell members where not to build, but in order to have this exchange of information, we emphasize that if you don’t communicate with the builder whose territory you might be crossing into, it creates a situation where they’re not willing to share. “We’ve been very fortunate in selecting our members and we represent most of the U.S. and Canada, a lot of the Caribbean, a bit in Europe, Australia, Africa, India, and Central America. It’s a close-knit group and we very seldom lose a member because we have a co-op associated with us, and members literally make money by belonging to the Guild. They get a rebate on the products they buy from our vendor partners and that rebate, in almost every instance, will pay their dues and pay for them to attend our meetings. It’s a win/win. And a great opportunity for someone who’s in the business.” Allstar Pool & Spa - Everett, WA - www.allstarpool.com
