Benefits

Running a successful construction company or an associated business in the Arrowhead Region comes with its share of challenges: constant cost pressures, the search for reliable partners, staying compliant, and finding time to grow. The Arrowhead Builders Association isn't just another organization; we are a strategic partner, formed to tackle these very pain points and ensure you keep more of your hard-earned money and valuable time.

Struggling to Grow Your Network and Your Bottom Line?

Connect with potential clients, trusted sub-contractors, and quality suppliers right in your local market.

Our Monthly Members Night Out Events offers opportunities to showcase your services and discover new partnerships, all while building genuine relationships, on a regular basis. Beyond local connections, your ABA membership automatically extends to the Builders Association of Minnesota (BAM) and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), providing you with a vast Business to Business Networking pipeline and national resources. Plus, your listing on the abamn.org website gives you crucial online visibility, driving an average of over 1,300 click-through advertisements annually and acting as a powerful lead generator.

Are High Operating Costs and Specialized Insurance Eating Your Profits?

We know every dollar counts. That’s why ABA membership gives you access to Special Discount Programs with national partners like Verizon Wireless, FedEx, Hertz, and Dell, slashing your operational expenses. Beyond general savings, our Special Insurance Programs offer exclusive, builder-specific Workers’ Compensation and comprehensive Builder’s Insurance (including builder’s risk, general liability, commercial auto, and umbrella policies). These programs are designed to provide tailored, cost-effective coverage, protecting your business without the hefty price tag often associated with specialized policies. You can even utilize our well-equipped 40’ x 26’ Training Facility/Community Room with free Wi-Fi and parking, eliminating rental costs for your meetings or training sessions.

Feeling Unheard or Overwhelmed by Regulations?

Navigating the complex landscape of local and state regulations can be daunting and costly. The ABA provides crucial Legislative Representation, actively fighting for your rights and offering direct channels to lawmakers. This advocacy protects your business from adverse policies and keeps you informed and empowered. Furthermore, our Education programs provide easy access to Continuing Education courses accredited for both Minnesota and Wisconsin license requirements, ensuring you stay compliant and competitive without the hassle of finding external training.

Stressed by the Grind and Needing a Break?

All work and no play leads to burnout. Our Annual Golf Outing, Huskies Games, Shoot for the Future Clay Shoot, Annual Dinner, and other Family Nights offer much-needed breaks from busy schedules. These events provide a relaxed environment where you can unwind, recharge, and even make valuable connections in a casual, fun setting. It’s an investment in your well-being and a chance to strengthen bonds within our supportive community.

Stop letting common industry challenges hold you back. Joining the Arrowhead Builders Association transforms these obstacles into opportunities for growth, savings, influence, and connection.
