Networking & Referrals

At the heart of everything we do at WCR is a belief that by working together, our members are more successful than they would be alone. So your WCR membership opens up a world of networking and referral opportunities, including local and state chapter meetings, workshops and special events.

Referral Network and the Referral Roster

Ask a WCR member what the most valuable benefit of their membership is, and, chances are, most will say "referrals". In a recent survey, 60 percent of our members reported using the referral network in the last two years. What does that mean for WCR   members? It means that, each year, our members receive over $100 million in commissions just from the WCR network.

The backbone of our referral network is WCR's annual member directory, the Referral Roster. It's your link to tens of thousands of members nationwide who are ready and willing to put qualified referrals in your hands. Your listing in the Roster is free with your membership. And additional advertising opportunities are available to increase your visibility even further.

Local, State and Regional Networking Opportunities

When you become a WCR member, you also become a member of your local WCR chapter, which regularly offers a number of business-  building opportunities like roundtable discussions, featured speakers, marketing meetings, and other timely and topical events. Those events complement our national referral network by providing face to face interaction and discussion with other professionals right in the community where you live and work.

Likewise, WCR state and regional chapters also hold events designed to expand your business opportunities, develop your skills and talents and broaden your knowledge and knowhow. Finally, WCR holds two national meetings each year, during which members come together and  to conduct council business, participate in education programs and make contacts from all over the nation.
