We are pleased that the Direct Marketing Club of New York is an independent affiliate of the DMA. The mission of the DMA Affiliate Network is to unify the direct marketing community to build deeper political grassroots, to enhance the national and local educational, informational and networking opportunities to build membership at the local and national level.

DMCNY remains an independent club; the DMA will not have any say in the way the club is run or in our finances. Under this arrangement, the DMA will set up a coordinating group of local direct marketing clubs for networking and information exchange. The DMA will be able to use the power of the club’s membership in their lobbying efforts. What this means to DMCNY members?

Your DMCNY membership is enhanced with even more benefits.

• As part of this arrangement, any individual who joins or renews their membership in the DMCNY and whose company is not already a DMA member, can join the DMA for the first year at a discount of up to 50%. This is a full membership with full benefits.
• Club members will receive discounts on DMA products and services. Currently, there is a 15% discount on DMA bookstore products.  Our members receive DMA member rates for all DMA virtual seminars. Our members also receive a discount for the DMA's annual conference (currently $100).
• Club members will receive access to certain private content on the DMA’s website.
• Club members may link to the DMA's Ethical Guidelines and Best Practices from their sites and also display the DMA Affliate logo.
• Club members are eligible for nomination as Echo Awards judges, can submit Echo entries and automatically advance to Level 2 judging.
• Joint efforts on federal and state lobbying through visits to statehouse and legislative alerts.

For details on how to take advantage of DMA benefits, please log in and under Membership tab on the navigational menu select Members Only Discount page.

Considering how important it is for all those involved in the direct marketing industry to have the protection that the DMA provides by means of its legislative and public relations activities, this new way of working together will benefit all members of the DMCNY.
