Spike Club

A Spike is a member who works to recruit new members, gets members involved and retains members. In building a strong association, Spikes are priceless. Here’s how to start:

Earn six credits within two consecutive membership years.
You receive one Spike credit for each new member you recruit and an additional credit when that new member renews on or before their anniversary date.
You must earn two credits per year until you reach 25 credits to become a Life Spike.

The Spike Club Members shown below were honored at the CMBA November 2017 Spike Appreciation Night: Back row: Dale Gruber, Dale Gruber Construction; Tony Steinemann, ADS Designs; Joe Torborg, Torborg Construction; Craig Schoenberg, Schoenberg Construction; Mike Torborg, Mike Torborg Homes; Jim Green, Lumber One Cold Spring. front row: Matt Cecko, Home Check Plus; Chris Hensel, Dovetail Kitchen Designs; Kurt Schimnich, Schimnich Construction; Art Buhs, CMH4H; Bill Landwehr, Goodin Companies; Jay Paulson, HighPoint Homes

How do I earn Spike credits?

Members earn one credit for each new member they sponsor. When that member renews after his or her first year of membership, the sponsoring member automatically gets one renewal credit. Every year the member renews thereafter, the sponsoring member will receive a ½ renewal credit.

Spikes receive a ½ credit for recruitment and a ½ credit for the renewal of Affiliate members.
