MFMA Member Benefits
Marketing Tools
Two of the most powerful membership features
are your company's listing in our searchable Web site database
and the SourceBook that is widely distributed. Every year,
your company's information
is distributed to architects, builders, designers,
school officials and other professionals who write
specifications and make purchasing
decisions. The combined exposure of these two distribution
opportunities ensures your company information will
be provided to more than 100,000
interested buyers.
Educational Development
MFMA's Convention programming is unmatched in the
flooring industry because it is developed by installers
for installers. Hard-hitting
educational sessions, interactive roundtable discussions,
numerous displays of quality product and service
exhibits, along with valuable
peer networking opportunities await you at this unique
event.
Industry Advertising
MFMA continues to aggressively market the unmatched
quality and performance of MFMA northern hard maple
athletic flooring in industry publications and
industry buyers’ guides

a result. In fact, MFMA maple represents more than 55 percent
of the entire North American sport
flooring market. Current marketing efforts are centered
on the specification community including architects
and general contractors, in addition to facility managers and athletic directors.
