Business Associate Directory
Every new member is given a directory of Business Associates and periodic updates are given to the entire membership.

Monthly Newsletter
Declared by the membership as one of the benefits most appreciated is receiving the newsletter which features articles on various real estate investing subjects. Many companies advertise in all issues or selectively, some with full page ads and others with an oversized business card.

Networking at Monthly Meetings
Monthly meetings are held on the 2nd Monday of every month. Each meeting is usually attended by an average of 500 members and guests. A lot of networking takes place at the general meetings, friendships are made, and business contacts secured. Many members go to the meetings just for this purpose.

Promotion at Exhibit Hall
There is a dedicated area for Business Associates to exhibit at each monthly meeting. An associate can rent table space in this area for the evening.

Display Business Cards and Flyers
There is a dedicated place in the exhibit area at the monthly meetings for flyers and business cards. You can advertise there without purchasing table space. Also you can place your flyers and cards at the GaREIA Headquarters which attracts daily visits by investors who wish to use the computer research facilities.

Handbook
This book is issued to every new member and is updated and reissued periodically. There is advertising space available on the front and back covers, as well as on all of the divider pages.

Monthly Program
We distribute a monthly program at each general meeting and will sell space on the inside and back covers of the brochure. Every attending guest and member will receive one of these at each meeting.

Calendar
An annual calendar of events, seminars, etc. is distributed to each member as part of his membership. There is space available on every month for advertisements.

General Meeting Sponsor
A Business Associate member may sponsor a meeting. This will permit them to speak at a Q & A session at 6:30 pm on a real estate subject which is related to their industry. They will receive an exhibit table of prominence and are permitted to distribute flyers on the seats in the general meeting room.

Mailers
GaREIA will provide their mailing list to a preferred mailing house for distribution of your marketing materials to GaREIA members.

Special Vendors Newspaper
We have plans to issue a special vendor newspaper once or twice a year which feature advertising geared for the real estate investor and landlord.

Credit Union
Members may join Southern Federal Credit Union providing low interest VISA, no cost checking, higher interest savings, various loan opportunities and more.
