Seven Reasons Why The NLA Stands Supreme

NLA Fact #1: The NLA Can Deliver New Revenue
New NLA members get multiple lead generators, including company name announcements with live website links in LCT Magazine, LCT E-News, LimoScene, NLA E-News and on Limo.org, Facebook and Linked-In. The NLA’s website NLARide.com features the list of NLA member operators and serves as a prime referral resource for fellow members, other transportation professionals and travelers worldwide. The NLA Directory of Members functions as a similar business tool.  It’s used habitually by NLA operators for member-to-member farm-outs and affiliate work.  
 
NLA Fact #2: The NLA Promotes 24/7
The NLA website NLARide.com is an online directory that showcases all (and only) NLA member companies. It is designed for the public’s use as well as for chauffeured transportation operators’ use, is updated daily, and offers quick and easy searches by location and vehicle type. The NLA office regularly directs consumer inquiries to NLARide.com.
 
NLA Fact #3: The NLA Can Save You Money
The NLA offers discount programs on chauffeured transportation software, marketing/printing, background checks, packaged human resource programs, LCT Show tickets, and lots more.   The newest program that has members signing up in droves is a 19% discount on Verizon Wireless calling plans. Take advantage of just a few of these plans and your annual dues will pay for themselves – and then some.
 
NLA Fact #4: The NLA Makes Your Voice Heard
The NLA gives every single member company the political might of many. It stays on top of and fights for the issues that directly affect chauffeured enterprises. NLA members have a powerful voice through the NLA’s on-the-ground professional Capitol Hill lobbying firm in Washington, D.C. Members also are able to get skilled, FREE one-on-one assistance on company-specific regulatory and/or legislative problems and issues.  
 
NLA Fact #5: The NLA Provides the Hallmark of Professionalism
The NLA is the only international association serving luxury chauffeured ground transportation.   You’ll confirm you stand with the very best in the industry whenever and wherever you display the NLA logo, the official seal of your company’s membership. 
 
NLA Fact #6: The NLA Teaches How To Do It Better
The NLA seminars at the annual International LCT Show deliver exactly the practical know-how you require to grow and strengthen your company, whether you are a “newbie” to chauffeured transportation or a veteran business owner. The educational seminars are unparalleled in the chauffeured transportation industry for quality, relevance, and expertise. The NLA newsletters LimoScene and NLA E-News, the website www.Limo.org, quarterly webinars and frequent members-only news briefs provide the latest industry information and business-building tips.   
 
NLA Fact #7: The NLA Rebates 20% Dues to Local Associations
The NLA/local association rebate arrangement, which became effective in 2006, was established by the NLA to: 1) Help local limousine associations financially; 2) Strengthen NLA-local association relationships and encourage new associations to become NLA members; and 3) Provide the incentive for local associations to jointly recruit new members with the national association.
