Why should you join

PPMCA?

Here is the answer to this question:

• We provide training for your Techs on an ongoing basis at a significant discount to members.  In fact you can save enough money on the training alone to cover the cost of the membership, and remember in order to keep your Mechanics IV license, you need to have 6 hours of approved training a year.

Why should you join PPMCA continued...

• We have four General Membership meetings per year where we keep you up to date on all the code changes as well as many other factors which can affect your business. During these meetings we provide you a free breakfast and speakers who can help you with everything from insurance problems to lien laws, and many other topics that can help you in your day to day business operations.
• We have two members on the Regional Building Mechanical Board who work continually with the PPMCA code advisory committee to insure that all of your problems, concerns, and issues are addressed.
• The PPMCA is considered the voice of the mechanical trades in the City and with almost 100 members we carry an extreme amount of political clout with all the powers to be in the City.
• We have worked with Colorado Springs Utilities to create a referral service which for an extra fee you can get great work referrals direct from the City.

• The PPMCA boards meets once a month to look over all the problems that can affect our business, and if a major problem should occur we can call a meeting of the general membership in a very short period of time.
• The PPMCA is a totally volunteer organization.  All the board members and committee members give their time freely because they know that if it wasn't for the PPMCA in the past most of us would not be in this business today, and the constant threat of losing more and more of our work to the public sector makes the time spent more than worth while.
• I think that one of the most overlooked benefits is meeting with all the other business owners and vendors.  We all learn from each other.  Maybe it is a new product or maybe a bad account to be careful about or how to deal with an employee problem.  It is all good stuff that we can help each other with and makes us all better business men and women.

All in all the money you pay for the PPMCA membership will be the best investment in your business you can make.
