NSBSG Membership
North Shore Business Success Group (NSBSG) presently has about two dozen active members. Membership is limited to one representative from each general business category unless agreed to by the members involved. Our main aim is to maintain a healthy group with most mainstream business categories represented. While NSBSG does not charge for membership we do require one major thing from our members - dedication to the group, which includes regular attendance. That does not mean members cannot miss a meeting. There is no penalty for missing periodic meetings for good reason. But NSBSG is not a drop-in group. We charge a nominal amount of one dollar for those that do not come to a meeting with either a guest or one referral for one member.
