MBI’s big tent just got a little bigger this past year.  As part of its effort to recruit new members, as well as retain existing members, MBI finished its year at its highest membership total in the history of the organization.  (Keep in mind, MBI was first established in 1912 and it pre-dates the sinking of the Titanic by one month!)  When membership numbers were finally tallied for the fiscal year, MBI had a total membership of 503.  In fact, for 2023 there were 61 new members joining the MBI ranks.

​

A key part of this success is the continued efforts of members who are offering up referrals.  There is no better form of promotion than a member approaching firms to share the value of membership.  The MBI Board appreciates those members who see the benefit of expanding our membership base and without this sort of participation, MBI would not be able to achieve such steady growth.
