New benefits

18 June 2013

A bunch of new benefits to financial members:

1. Free ad-hoc legal advice, through the Gillis Delaney Legal Group. This offer is available nationally.

2. Serious holiday travel discounts through major Australian travel agency Flight Centre. 5% off holiday packages in addition to their lowest airfare guarantee.

3. Free debt-collection consult with Austral Mercantile. Normally you'd pay for that advice.

You access these offers through the Access 1st site and you'll need the password. We'll publish it in our next newsletter.

You just need to be a financial member with a big heart to be involved.

We need people in every state.

1. Please fill in the survey. Parmia Insurance have donated quality whiskey, coffee and chocolate as a raffle prize.

2. At EOTW you would have heard about Widelines; the code of conduct we will be advertising to the business community. If you want to be Widelines-compliant,  (a) sign up and (b) enter your details in the AWIA directory. NOTE: directory has been re-organised and flushed, so you'll need to re-enter your stuff. A pre-condition for Widelines is business membership of AWIA. Here's where you join or upgrade.

3. Thanks to the speakers, volunteers, delegates, sponsors and event managers Partner & Prosper. The conference went off like a bomb and feedback so far is hell positive.
