Frequently Asked Questions

Actually, LeTip believes that you should be a member of both your Chamber and LeTip. Your Chamber of Commerce is good for your business and your community. The difference between a Chamber and your LeTip Chapter is exclusivity. You “own” your category when you join LeTip and your competition is excluded within your chapter. Chambers, by their very nature, exist by being inclusive.

You do! LeTip teaches you how to network smarter and gives you the structure from which to grow. But it is the chapter as a whole that fuels the success of each member. Rather than just you selling on your own; with LeTip, you have a sales force of professional business people bringing you qualified leads. Remember, referrals are made based on trust and solid relationships. That’s why it is important to attend meetings and build those relationships so your chapter will get to know you, just as you’ll get to know them.

LeTip is not a get rich fast scheme. It takes time to earn the trust of your chapter members, to become adept in the networking arena, to learn to promote yourself and your business with ease. If you expect instant reward, LeTip is not for you. If you want to build long-standing business relationships that will earn you qualified referrals for years to come, then LeTip is for you.

LeTip expects you to attend weekly meetings to build relationships. LeTip expects you to pass, on average, one qualified referral every week. LeTip expects you to be ethical, professional and experienced in your line of work. LeTip expects you to help all your members to be successful and they are expected to do the same for you.

LeTip will work for you… if you work LeTip. Simply follow the program. It has worked for thousands upon thousands of business people. To be successful in LeTip – or in any endeavor – requires perseverance and the universal understanding that you must give before you receive. There is much to be said about “All for one and one for all!”

We adhere to the program format, require our members to be committed, expect excellence and reject mediocrity. We’re snappy, successful and honored by the incredibly talented and professional members who are the true spirit of LeTip.

You can expect LeTip to provide the structure and the guidance of the LeTip program. You can expect your Area Representative to train your chapter members in leadership and presentation skills.

Chapters usually collect their dues on a quarterly schedule. Each chapter’s Board of Directors establishes their fee schedule.

There are NO paid chapter positions, LeTip chapters are not-for-profit groups and fees are based only on the actual chapter operating costs.

Chapter dues vary from chapter to chapter, and are used to fund chapter meetings, meals, business mixers and overhead expenses. These dues remain exclusively at the chapter level. Each chapter sets their own budget, of which chapter dues may average $125 to $150 per quarter (with a minimum of $40 per quarter).

The cost of a LeTip new membership is $390.00 USD for a US membership, or $390.00 CAD + HST for a Canadian membership, payable to LeTip International.

Annual membership renewal is lower than the initial membership fee and invoiced in your anniversary joining month.

It depends on the Chapter’s size. If the Chapter contains fewer than thirty members, then a minimum of three “NO” votes can permit the Chapter to deny membership. If there are more than thirty members, then a minimum of 10% of the membership (tallied from the beginning of the quarter) voting “NO” is required to permit the Chapter to deny membership.

Since LeTip chapters accept only one representative for any profession, it is not unusual to find your category filled. There are two options: you can ask for a search in another chapter or you can spearhead the start of a new chapter. In either case, contact your area representative (or call LeTip International HQ directly at 800-255-3847). We’ll do everything we can to help you find a chapter.

Each guest is required to attend two consecutive meetings before an application can be accepted. An inspection of an applicant’s place of business is a requirement of acceptance.

Yes! You absolutely can, in fact being a guest is part of the process of joining LeTip (see next FAQ question).
