What makes LeTip different than
any other leads group?
To put it simply, LeTip is the original. We aren't a watered down copy. We
set the standard back in 1978 because we created a program to embrace both
businesswomen and businessmen. We stick to the format, require our members
to be committed, expect excellence and reject mediocrity. We're snappy, successful
and honored by the incredibly talented and professional membership who are
the true spirit of LeTip.

What can I expect LeTip to do for
me?
You can expect LeTip to provide the structure and the guidance of the LeTip
program. You can expect your Regional Director or Ambassadors to train your
chapter members in leadership and presentation skills. You can expect all
the necessary materials to run a chapter to be provided without charge. You
can expect annual training in the newest networking and chapter building techniques
for your Board Members and Committee Chairs. You can expect your category
to be protected. And you can expect our full time staff in our corporate office
to assist you when necessary.

What does LeTip expect of me?
LeTip expects you to attend meetings because you can't build relationships
if you aren't in attendance. LeTip expects you to pass, on average, one qualified
referral every week. LeTip expects you to be ethical, professional and experienced
in your line of work. LeTip expects you to help all your members to be successful
and they are expected to do the same for you.

How soon will I see financial reward?
LeTip is not a get rich fast scheme. It takes time to earn the trust of your
chapter members, to become adept in the networking arena, to learn to promote
yourself and your business with ease. If you expect instant reward, LeTip
is not for you. If you want to build long-standing business relationships
that will earn you qualified referrals for years to come, then LeTip is for
you.

How do I know LeTip will work for
me?
LeTip will work for you... if you work LeTip. Just follow the program. It
has worked for thousands upon thousands of business people. But to be successful
in LeTip - or in any endeavor - requires perseverance and the universal understanding
that you must give before you receive. There is much to be said about "All
for one and one for all!"

Why shouldn't I just join my Chamber
of Commerce?
Actually LeTip believes that you should be a member of both your Chamber and
LeTip. Your Chamber of Commerce is good for your business and your community.
The difference though between a Chamber and your LeTip Chapter is exclusivity.
You "own" your category when you join LeTip and your competition is excluded
from your chapter. Chambers, by their very nature, cannot exist without being
inclusive.

What really makes LeTip work?
You do. The membership. LeTip teaches you how to network smarter. LeTip gives
you the structure from which to grow. But it is the chapter as a whole that
fuels the success of each member. Rather than just you out there selling on
your own, with LeTip you have a sales force of professional business people
bringing you qualified leads. Remember, referrals are made based on trust
and solid relationships. That's why it is important to attend meetings and
build those relationships so your chapter will get to know you, just as you'll
get to know them.

What if my category is filled?
Since LeTip only accepts one representative of any profession, it is not unusual
to find your category filled. There are two options: you can ask for a search
in another chapter or you can spearhead the start of a new chapter. In either
case, call your Regional Director or LeTip International at 800-255-3847.
We'll do all we can to help you find a chapter.

How many meetings must I attend
before I can join?
Each guest is required to attend two consecutive meetings before an application
can be accepted. An inspection of an applicant's place of business is a requirement
of acceptance.

How many votes are required for
acceptance into the Chapter?
It depends on the Chapter's size. If the Chapter contains fewer than thirty
members, then a minimum of three "NO" votes can permit the Chapter to deny
membership. If there are more than thirty members, then a minimum of 10% of
the membership (tallied from the beginning of the quarter) voting "NO" is
required to permit the Chapter to deny membership.

How much does it cost to join a
LeTip Chapter?
Your new member fee of $325 is paid directly to LeTip International. Another
$40 is paid directly to your new chapter. Additionally, members are required
to pay dues throughout the year. These dues are kept in your chapter and are
used to pay for your meal, business mixers and the promotion of your chapter.
Each chapter sets its own fee schedule, however dues usually fall into the
$125 to $150 range per quarter.

When are my dues required to be
paid?
Most chapters collect dues on a quarterly schedule. Each chapter's Board of
Directors establishes the amount for their chapter. There are NO paid positions
or profits involved, only the actual costs to run the chapter.
