We are a small landscaping company, wishing to grow. We are wanting to gain higher value and interesting work and one way of gaining the customer's trust... so we have been advised, is to join a trade association.

The million pound question is... which one?

Is BALI better than APL or vice versa?

Are these associations just after our money to provide us with a logo or do they actually offer anything of value?

Let me know your thoughts and experiences. What do customers actually look for if they do not go with a recommendation?

Thanks.

Stuart
