ESA is celebrating its 75th year of being an instrumental organization in the electronic and life safety industry and will be giving away raffle prizes, cash and for volunteers who raise $15,000 in campaign credits or more – an all-inclusive four-night Caribbean vacation in September 2023. At the end of the contest, prices are awarded based on the level achieved in total throughout the campaign.

During the contest, volunteers will work with ESA to earn campaign credits by selling integrator memberships, associate memberships, ESX Executive and Deluxe registrations, ESA print and web advertising.

“As chairman of ESA I have unique insight into the vast impact this membership campaign can have — and the ripple effect that will take place for years to come. These volunteers are leaders in our industry — and busy in their day-to-day lives, but the passion they have for our association and the industry has invigorated them to raise their hands,” said ESA Chairman John Loud, president of LOUD Security.

The goal of the campaign is to inform non-members of ESA’s member benefits and how utilizing ESA’s industry-specific programs can help businesses save money on certification and training, liability insurance, and business expenditures such as fuel, tools, and equipment – just to name a few.

March 7 is the first turn in deadline for volunteers, and the first leaderboard announcements will be held March 10. The driving force behind the membership campaign is led by John Loud, Merlin Guilbeau and Jillian Bateman-Macintosh of ESA.

“I am so appreciative that these volunteers will help spread the power of ESA membership to more companies across the nation,” Loud added. “As ESA prepares to celebrate its 75th year, this is what the association is all about. It is about coming together with one loud voice, because together we are stronger.”
