Annual Membership Options & Pricing
Premier members get the full and extensive range of National and Local benefits including listing in the national and local directories, Member Spotlights, and Peer Mastermind Groups.
BASIC MEMBER | $359.40
This membership is for women business owners who are ready to join the NAWBO community. You’ll gain access to a local chapter, or if outside a 45 mile radius, you’ll qualify for our NAWBO virtual chapter!
PREMIER MEMBER | $479.40
This membership empowers women business owners to directly impact the movement of the organization with voting rights and the opportunity to serve on their local chapter or NAWBO National Board. This includes Basic Membership benefits plus PerkSpot Program merchant savings, eligibility to speak at virtual Connect & Learn Webinars, and eligibility to submit content for NAWBO One monthly e-publication…and more!
SUPPORTING MEMBER | $795.00
Supporting members include individuals who are not women business owners but who want to support and be part of NAWBO’s mission through membership. These members receive all the same benefits as Premier members but are a non-voting member. To qualify, the member does not need to be a woman business owner.
NEXTGEN MEMBER | $120.00
This category gives what’s traditionally thought of as NextGen - women in high school, college or graduate school who are on an entrepreneurship education track - as well as women of any age within the first 1-3 years of their business startup access to NAWBO’s community and resources as they launch and build!
NAWBO National and NAWBO KC are both included in the membership fees. Membership in NAWBO is recorded in the name of the individual, not the organization. Dues payments are non-refundable. Membership dues are not deductible as a charitable contribution for Federal Income Tax purposes but may be deductible as a business expense.
