Solution Providers

Become a Solution Provider!

MASBO takes great pride in partnering with vendors that align with our members' needs; and believe strongly in ensuring that vendors, members, and the Association all benefit from these partnerships. As such, we provide various opportunities to engage with the membership in ways that best suit your company's vision and mission. Solution Provider memberships run July 1 through June 30. Thank you for your consideration of MASBO as a valued conduit for your business to our membership!

Thank you to our Solution Providers for providing input on our partner memberships and sponsorships. Narrative descriptions are below the chart.

Affiliate Membership*: $400

Considered our traditional vendor membership, Solution Provider Affiliates attend our professional development programs at the member cost per person for up to two representatives. Logos appear in the welcome slide deck and names are announced from the podium. A great way to participate with members, you'll hear the day's presentations, join engagement learning exercises to experience their world, and enjoy some great conversations over lunch. Additional benefits include:

• Free registration for the Annual Institute. (Meals are charged separately. You'll be notified when discounted room reservations open, and they are booked and paid by you.)
• Receive the MASBO Notebook, our periodic e-mail blast that incorporates member news, event reminders, and links to on-line articles and relevant documents that pertain to the business of schools and districts.
• A reduced rate and early registration at our May 2024 vendor event.
• Listing in the Solution Marketplace - our web-based buyer’s guide - under the Services tab. General members are encouraged to first search our Solution Marketplace when seeking specific products and services.
• Access to on-demand learning (free and fee-based) through our Learning Management System.

Affiliate Membership A La Carte Add-ons:

Enhanced Membership: $275

Limited to 17 Solution Provider Affiliates, experience the added benefit of a scrolling logo at the bottom of the website's homepage. The logo contains a hyperlink to your company's website for easy access by viewers. Please send a 300 pixel wide by 250 pixel high image in .png or .jpg/.jpeg format to admin@masbo.org.

Member-Helping-Member Session: $500

Partner with an existing Massachusetts School Business Administrator customer/client for a one-hour session on how the school/district solved a problem using your product/service. MHM sessions are a teaching and learning opportunity, not an advertisement. Your recorded MHM session will be available free to MASBO members for one year in our online learning environment where they can earn continuing educational credits, as will the SBA that partners with you.
