Membership is an annual fee of $45.
Membership money is used for office expenses and for
materials used for recruiting new members.
$100 may seem like a lot of money but when you pencil it
out it works like this. An eight car transport
on the average transports 624 autos a year. Raising load prices by a mere
$100 will put in your pocket $62,400 more a year. That is an investment
that you can't pass up. If you calculate in a fuel surcharge then you
yearly take home will be even higher.
We need every member to be a recruiter for members.
The success of our mission cannot lie just with a small staff but must lie with
the members as a whole. We are dedicated to working hard toward our goals
but we do need your help.
Once our membership numbers is a respectable force we will
be setting the date for the first annual American Patriot Coalition conference.
At this first conference we will be choosing an implementation date as well as
setting our guidelines for load pricing and fuel surcharges.
All members will be notified when the first annual conference
will be and we are asking everyone to come. If you cannot come please send
a representative from your office.
You will stay informed by weekly emails.
We will send a weekly email to you informing you where exactly we are with our
numbers and any other information concerning the coalition.
When you find that there has been a company that has under cut your bid then
contact our office. We will be calling them and doing our best to educate
them and encourage them to be part of the solution and not part of the problem.
We also will have many of our members call them and if again they do not join
the coalition then we will contact our drivers and they will not be doing
business with them. When no one will take their loads then they will be
forced to bring their load prices up.
