Spike Club

Sponsor a New Member…Be a Spike Champion

Membership development is vital to the future of the HBA.  The continuous influx of new members and maintenance of current memberships form the underpinnings of a dynamic and strong association.

One of the most valuable resources for building your association is YOU.  Leaders who recruit and retain members play a key role in the growth, development and stability of the HBA – they are “Spike Champions.”

Spike Rewards

By recruiting, involving and retaining members, Spikes strengthen and build both our association and the entire industry.  Becoming a Spike has its exclusive rewards:

  • Nationwide prestige as a distinguished Spike Club members
  • Increased visibility, recognition and networking opportunities among industry peers
  • Valuable NAHB rewards for each level of achievement.  View more information about the NAHB Spike Club at The Spike Club Levels and Awards
  • Eligibility to attend the annual NAHB Spike Party and enjoy big name entertainment, and;
  • Local HBA recognition, prizes and awards

How to Earn Spike Credits

Spike credits are earned by recruiting and retaining members.  Members earn one Spike credit for each new member they sponsor.  When that member renews after his or her first year of membership, the sponsoring member automatically gets one retention credit.  And the credits snowball!  Every year the member renews thereafter, the sponsoring member receives a ½ credit for renewal.

Before becoming a Spike, you’re a Spike candidate.  That means you have earned between one and five Spike credits (new or retention.)  When you earn your sixth Spike credit within two consecutive years, you become an official Spike!

Receive recognition as an accomplished and connected member.  Sponsor new HBA members in 2010!

How to Receive Spike Credit

Write your name on the “Spike Credit” line of a membership application and pass it along to your colleague. Candidates can also join online and credit you as sponsor.
