Why Join
Membership has its rewards!
Stop the emails and the IMs. Get off the cell phone. When's the last time you actually had a conversation with someone in person? And no, SomeBody55 in a chat room doesn't count. You need to join your advertising community. The Tennessee Valley Advertising Federation (TVAF) is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to supporting our diverse advertising community through award-winning programs and events. As a TVAF member you can expect to:
- Network -- Tired of looking at the same four walls? Then get out and join us for one of our luncheon programs or social events. From sales reps to account execs, creatives to copywriters -- you'll interact with industry leaders and get your creative juices flowing. Our goal is to enrich your career in a supportive and fun atmosphere by providing you with networking opportunities, informative speakers, and a chance for you to get away from your desk.
- Save -- Enjoy reduced lunch fees as well as special ADDY entry rates when you enter the annual American Advertising Federation Awards. Plus you receive exclusive benefits through our affiliation with the American Advertising Federation (AAF) including discounts on Advertising Age, ADWEEK, FedEx, car rentals, and more! And your company gets a free member profile on the TVAF website.
- Contribute -- Thankful you had a mentor that helped you on the road to success? You too can help local students majoring in advertising, marketing, public relations or graphic design through our annual scholarship program. And you can help promote truth in advertising through TVAF's self-regulating advertising standards program in conjunction with the Better Business Bureau.
- Volunteer -- Tight budgets and even tighter deadlines got you down? Join a TVAF committee and get to know your talented peers while supporting you advertising community. Having people you can talk to that understand the industry will give you peace of mind and a reason to get away from the computer for lunch.
