Hey Reader, In case you missed the announcement, we have a new directory at AIBD.org/directory. One of the coolest things about it is that there is no more form to fill out when you want to search for something. This is because the search box is smart enough to know what you're looking for.
But as you can see, we have a lot of empty avatars. And not everyone has filled out their specialties. Here's how you make those updates:Log in at AIBD.org/login. If this is your first time logging in to the new site, click "Lost Password" and follow the instructions that arrive in your email. If no instructions arrive within the hour, please reach out to info@aibd.org to have your password reset manually. Your Membership Account page will have a place to upload your new avatar or update any of your information. Please double check to make sure all of your information is up to date! There are also all sorts of useful resources and discount codes. Active members will see these in the right-hand vertical navigation. Below your account information, you'll also see that there is a tote/lunch bag give-away. This is an exclusive AIBD item that is ONLY available through winning. We do not sell this item or give it away otherwise. Don't forget to hit the Save button when you're done! -the A-Team P.S. If you have any feedback, please let me know! I'm working on this every day now, so there will be improvements as long as more ideas come in! |

AIBD members often tell me, “I had no idea AIBD offered that.” Even though we send several messages each week highlighting programs and benefits, it’s clear there’s still more I can do as your Communications Director to connect you with everything that’s available.
