The National Federation of Builders (NFB) has struck again in its
battle for members with the Federation of Master Builders (FMB)
after deciding to bring forward the implementation of its new
£200 membership fee nearly a month early due to "an
unprecedented level of interest".
Last month (CJ 5 February) the NFB decided to slash its £415-a-month subscription fee to attract more of the FMB's member companies with a turnover below £200,000. The move followed the FMB's attempt to poach members from the NFB.
The new fee will come into force over the next two weeks, ahead of the original launch date in April.
NFB director of sales, marketing and membership services Paul Kendrick said: "Last month, we saw a 15% month-on-month increase in applications for membership.
"A large proportion of these were from sub-£200,000 turnover companies, so we've taken the decision to implement the new subscription level across the regions earlier than planned," he said.
