The Member Premier program, recently introduced, recognizes members who are fully engaged with IMARK Plumbing and the IMARK Plumbing suppliers. The program provides a roadmap for members who strive to maximize the full benefit of their membership. Status is recognized based on activities accomplished and results achieved for the 2021 calendar year. Please review the article on page 58, which provides greater details or visit the IMARK website and click on the “Premier Program” icon.
The IMARK Plumbing membership and the IMARK staff wish to congratulate all IMARK suppliers that achieved Platinum or Gold status in 2020. Please review page 57 for a list of all of the suppliers that achieved Gold/Platinum status. The Gold/Platinum program recognizes suppliers that participate fully and effectively in supporting the IMARK membership and IMARK marketing programs.
Scheduled for Aug. 1-3, 2021, The Invitational Meeting will take place at the JW Marriott in Marco Island, Florida. Due to COVID restrictions and with the safety of IMARK members and suppliers in mind, our first meeting will host a limited number of member and supplier companies and have a cap of two attendees per company.
We will return to our traditional meeting format and host our IMARK Plumbing Annual Meeting & LPG Expo from Jan. 26-Feb.1, 2022 at the Omni La Costa in Carlsbad, California (FYI: These dates do not conflict with the 2022 Super Bowl.) Additional details on both meetings will become available.
Recently announced, the IMARK Group Retirement Plan, part of the One Member Retirement Network, allows independent businesses to pool their retirement assets to create a stronger buying position and leverage that scale into lower fees and higher service. The One Member Network is not new and has already delivered dramatically lower fees and better service to thousands of participants, while lowering administrative overhead and helping to improve bottom lines. Members who already offer a retirement benefit will find value, but the program is also open to members who want to start offering a retirement benefit to their employees. To learn how your company can participate, contact Andrew Thompson, vice president of qualified plan services, at 800-967-2046 or andrew.thompson2@LFG.com.
