Can HBA membership help my business?
Yes, we focus on all the business aspects of your audiology practice.
"It's easy to feel alone being in small biz."
We advocate and provide business support with guidance on HSP, the marketplace, and discounted assistance for all the other hats you wear as an independent clinic owner. We also meet in Member-only forums, share our frustrations and triumphs, and invite you to join us.
Our collegial Annual Seminars take that up a few notches with expert advice for the challenges of maintaining agile, sustainable businesses. Here are some Members' thoughts:
-
“Being able to ask business, HSP and audiology related questions without feeling inadequate. It can be isolating running your own business when you wear so many hats- HR, Accounting, marketing, parenting, partnering and our clients.”
-
“Having board members that is so committed, well informed and easy to approach.”
-
“I like that there is a forum of peers to ask questions, brainstorm and collaborate ...”.
