OK.  I'll go first.

Never done it.

It's very expensive, and they would like to see you attend monthly 
meetings.  All good if you can schmooz with the local politians and bigger 
businessmen.  Might make you some good customers......"might" is the 
operative unless you schmooz well.  I can see if you have a public shop 
space open to the public with lots of retail people that come and go all 
day with a store person.  Where I was before becoming a CAUT, I was so out 
of the way, nobody would even know how to get there!  My shop was 
elsewhere too.

I'd like to know what they offer you for the huge price tag? 

I'm sure some of you guys who have storefronts, etc. can help out on this 
too.  I just said "no thank you" in my self employed days. 

Good question, Gary. Just be ready to get political!  If you're good with 
the community, then it might work for you.

Just got a call this afternoon for an invitation to join the Better 
Business Bureau.  I'm not sure what the benefit would be, other than 
maybe more
advertising/tax write-off..Any of y'all members?
