FNGLA Launches Recruitment Effort: The One Name Campaign! FNGLA is a multi-faceted organization whose efforts benefit many businesses in Florida’s nursery and landscape industry. The Association officially added an “L” to represent “landscape” in its name nearly a decade ago. Since then, FNGLA has adopted many changes and tackled many issues representing and protecting Florida’s nursery and landscape industry: FNATS rebranded itself and changed its name to The Landscape Show; FNGLA partnered with the Landscape Management Network and RingPower on business education for landscape professionals, The Knowledge College’s training breakouts include sessions specific for landscape pros, and, most recently, The Great Southern Tree Conference has become Great Southern Landscape Field Days. In August, FNGLA officially launches “ The One Name Campaign!” We’re asking each FNGLA member to provide the name and contact details for just one business who will benefit from FNGLA’s membership, ideally a landscape firm. Members who submit a name will be highlighted in the monthly Greenline e-newsletter so everyone can see who is participating in the campaign. And, we’ll keep adding to the list! Once their “one name” has joined, the member who submitted the “one name” will be rewarded with a $50 credit towards any state-level FNGLA educational event! Your FNGLA staff will take it from there and will invite them to join FNGLA. We’ll also invite them to attend the upcoming Landscape Show, September 19 - 21 where Business is Blooming! Submitting your “one name” is easy! Go to FNGLA’s home page at www.fngla.org and look for the “Refer a Member” button on the top left. From here, there’s a simple online submission form. Then, simply follow-up with your recommendation and help orient them to the many programs and benefits which will most benefit their business. It’s really that easy!
