Who determines if a member is accepted?
Membership eligibility is determined based on several criteria, including full business registration and compliance with any relevant licenses. We welcome home-based businesses, but do not support those operating in an informal or unprofessional manner. In cases where a duplicate business category exists within our club, approval for membership is granted with the consensus of the existing member in that category. Additionally, all members are expected to maintain ethical practices, a positive reputation, and a professional demeanor, as the club does not accept individuals with negative attitudes.
How often do I have to turn up?
We expect you to turn up 85% of the time.
If you are unable to attend we do not ask for replacements as the club is interested in YOU over your business.
