HRACC NON-SOLICITATION POLICY
HRACC's success and growth is due, in part, to our commitment to the organization's mission, values, and standards of business ethics.
It is imperative that every member/guest encounter with HRACC be a positive and productive one.
An essential element in creating a positive experience is to try and ensure that members and guests do not feel that they are being solicited for business by other members/guests of HRACC.
Strict adherence to these guidelines will provide a comfortable, professional, intimidation-free environment for our members. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this policy, please contact an HRACC officer of HRACC's Chapter Administrator.
Members are not to introduce themselves for the purpose of selling their products/services during program meetings unless they sponsor the program.
Members are not to leave promotional materials on meeting tables or openly distribute such during meetings unless they are approved program sponsors or vendors.
It is permissible for a member to discuss their services or provide additional information to a prospective client member upon specific invitation/inquiry during Association meetings. Without express inquiry initiated by a member, solicitation is strictly prohibited during meetings.
It is understandable that members may selectively contact other members at their businesses during which time they may discuss their products or services. However, even on these occasions, they are to exercise good business judgment and avoid any behavior that could be construed as pressure by the member.
The membership directory is not to be used as a solicitation tool. This means that members shall not undertake a mass-mailing campaign or utilize the member directory to sell their products or services.
Members are requested to advise their guests of the HRACC non solicitation policy prior to attending a meeting.
