President's Message
2012 is here and with it an air of optimism. I believe we, members of BRANNJ, will experience the turning point for our industry this upcoming year and we will witness the growth of our association once again. I want to thank all of the members who volunteered to help BRANNJ in 2011 and ask that you continue your efforts in 2012. To all those sitting on the sidelines; get in the game! Volunteer to help our association help you and in the process connect with new business opportunities and build your personal "circle of contacts."
Regards,
Glen Lumia

Your customers are online. They are using the internet to find people to work with. Will they find YOU there? Or will they find your competitors? Don’t be left behind, take every opportunity available to you.
Builders, Remodelers, Associates – with your Profile Page on our cutting-edge new web site, you can reach your target customer.
Did you know our new web site now has a “homeowner’s side”, which is designed to be a go-to resource for homeowners to find helpful information about building and remodeling, AND – listen closely – to find builders and remodelers and building industry professionals who can do that work for them!
That’s right, homeowners throughout northern New Jersey will now have access to BRANNJ builders and remodelers and their associates. Your Profile Page is what they will look at when they are visiting our site looking to hire someone.
FACT: The search term “NJ contractor” averages about 14,000 searches a month! That means, fourteen thousand times each month, people are looking online for contractors....builders and remodelers just like YOU. They are looking for information, looking for quality, trustworthy contractors that they can call for their projects.
Your Profile Page is the best new marketing tool you could possibly have to reach these homeowners.
And the best news yet? BRANNJ is extending our 2011 “pre-launch” price, for our members only, of $67 until January 31, 2012. When have you ever heard of any kind of marketing material that will put you in front of the people you need to reach – for $67?!
Please go to our website at brannj.org to see an example of a Profile Page – you will be able to include all your company information, photos of your successful projects, testimonials, even a coupon or special offer if you like. And if you also have your own web site, you can link to it right from your profile page.
Associates – the Profile Page is for you too! Help our builders and remodelers find you easily, in an impressive format. They will get to see your products, services, and all you have to offer. (Associate Profile Pages will also be visible to the public, for those who service both.)
