The MIRA Bottom Line magazine is a great publication to see whats going on in the industry. We try to keep up with all the trends.
We always call MIRA with whatever problems we may have and they always solve it. They work very hard. They always call me and let me know what’s going on and what changes are coming, so it’s very helpful.
MIRA truly represents its members well. Auday does a magnificent job in following through with all the needs of retailers and having created a highly respected organization, and one of the most active. They are working hard and they involve their members.
MIRA is a great association; if you need health insurance you can get it from them. They also do a lot of networking and I have found business that I can deal with through them. I suggest that every small business join them. They help more that other associations; joining definitely wouldn’t hurt.
MIRA is very instrumental in trying to partner with vendors in trying to get better protection on pricing in as many ways as they can.
The programs they have right now with the rebates and the different things you can get from many vendors help us out a lot. We’re getting rebates from Sherwood, D&B Grocers, and others; there’s quite a few companies we are getting rebates from that we never did before, and we’re dealing with them now because of the rebates.
I had heard a lot of great things about them and decided to get involved. I am glad I did, and I plan to continue supporting them. I think MIRA is an excellent organization. They’ve not only helped me through their programs, but they’ve also helped me with some legal issues. These are just some of the reasons why i’ll continue supporting them.
We have benefited a lot from MIRA, they have helped us out in many ways. We use the coupon program a lot, and we use the insurance program
Before, MIRA was all about donations. After Auday (arabo) took over (as President) though, the programs and organization improved tremendously. It’s all about helping the people and not just asking your members for donations.
I don’t think people take enough advantage of the new programs MIRA offers. The organization is all about the people now, which is different than it was many years ago.
