Dear NAPO friends,

Many of you may remember when I became NAPO President in May of 2019. At that time I asked that you join me in celebrating the value of NAPO, the value of us AND the value we, as NAPO members, bring to others. That theme permeates throughout NAPO and is evident in our mission, our strategic initiatives, our programs and our operations. It reflects who we are.

One aspect of feeling valued stems from the success we achieve as organizing and productivity professionals. To encourage that, NAPO is introducing the NAPO Business Stamp of Approval Program – another way to add value by recognizing established NAPO businesses. As a professional association, NAPO supports its members through every stage of their business. This new NAPO Stamp of Approval Program has been created to identify established businesses that embrace and meet basic organizational standards and are in good standing in their jurisdictions. All businesses that meet the program standards are eligible to participate on an annual basis. 

The application process is a simple one, and all the details are here. Once you’ve applied, met the criteria, and paid the $30 yearly maintenance fee, your NAPO Stamp of Approval will be another way for you to elevate your business standards and instill confidence with your current and/or future clients. You will enjoy a preferential ranking in the NAPO Find a Pro Directory – listed following CPOs, and you will receive a digital badge to use in your email signature, your website, and throughout your marketing materials. 

The NAPO Business Stamp of Approval Program is an annual one, so applications are now being accepted through December 31, 2020 for the calendar year 2021. If you are a professional member business owner, I hope that f you will join me and take advantage of this valuable opportunity. What better way to start 2021 by celebrating the value of us!

I wish you, your families and friends a healthy, safe and happy holiday season. “See” you in 2021!

Warm regards,

Susie Hayman
