CEDIA Expands Member Benefit Offerings
New Member Benefits Designed to Support CEDIA Member Companies
INDIANAPOLIS (August 31, 2011) – The Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association (CEDIA) has announced new additions to its suite of member benefits. These new benefits support CEDIA members' sales and human resources operations.
CEDIA has partnered with Paychex and Richard James & Partners to create exclusive CEDIA member benefits that are now available to CEDIA members.
Richard James & Partners has created a Sales Assessment Tool customized for CEDIA members. The Sales Assessment Tool assists companies in determining whether a potential employee will perform well in their sales environment. This tool was created based on sales research from the largest sales database in the world.
The Sales Assessment Tool may also be used to establish a fair set of standards for sales staff. This tool normally costs companies $300, but the CEDIA member version is available for $99.
Paychex, a leading provider in business payroll services, will now offer CEDIA members a 15% discount on their services. Paychex services include payroll, tax filing, Flexible Spending Accounts, 401k, and more.
“CEDIA is committed to offering benefits that are relevant and provide added value to CEDIA membership,” said Utz Baldwin, CEDIA CEO. “These new benefits help support CEDIA members’ bottom line by offering saving on key products and services that keep their business operating costs down.”
Other recently added CEDIA member benefits have included the ESC Marketing On-Demand program, the Student Membership and discounts on products through Omaha Steaks. CEDIA will be rolling out additional member benefits in the fourth quarter of this year. Slated benefits include freight discounts, a chart of accounts, and a new extended warranty program. Learn about these new benefits as well as other CEDIA member benefits here.
CEDIA representatives will be available to answer membership questions at CEDIA EXPO in the membership booth located in the Crossroads Lobby in the Indiana Convention Center and at the new Membership Café located on the tradeshow floor in booth #4779.
