| Allied Members are invited to network with LOTSAR’s 1900+ REALTOR® members at membership meetings, educational programs, social events, and community service events. Examples of events include: | ||||
| R&R – REALTORS® and Relaxation: These after-hours networking events are held at local restaurants on the 3rd Thursday of each month. | ||||
| Community Events: LOTSAR participates in a variety of community events, including Red Cross blood drives, coat drives for the Asheville-Buncombe Community Christian Ministry, and others. Also, LOTSAR sponsors an annual charity cornhole tournament. Allied members are invited to participate in these events alongside the REALTOR® members. | ||||
| Committee Meetings: Volunteer committees are the lifeblood of the association. Allied members are encouraged to serve on LOTSAR committees, enabling them to take part in the decision-making process regarding operations and activities. | ||||
| PUBLICITY AND PROMOTION | ||||
| Upon request, Allied members are provided LOTSAR’s REALTOR® members’ email addresses depending on level of Allied Membership. Allied members may also request mailing labels for LOTSAR’s REALTOR® members. | ||||
| Allied Members are promoted on LOTSAR’s website (lotsar.org) and through various additional channels, depending upon the level of membership. | ||||
| ADDITIONAL INFORMATION | ||||
| For all sponsorship levels, only one primary contact will be listed and promoted. Only the organization’s name / logo will be included in signage and ads. The primary contact will also be added to LOTSAR’s distribution lists and will be given access to LOTSAR’s membership lists. If additional members of an Allied organization wish to be added to LOTSAR’s communication lists, a $50 (per person) charge will be assessed. If additional members of the Allied organization wish to be recognized (named) in ads and promotional signage, a full Allied membership is required. | ||||
