5 Reasons to Join SECP
  1. Get energized — by meeting and talking shop with other creatives. Self-Employed Creative Professionals offers a way to preserve the independence you crave and your unique creative style while becoming part of a dynamic professional group. When you’re stuck for a fresh idea or inside information or contacts, you’ll find helpful people and resources through SECP. 
  2. Gain access to affordable health care discount programs. SECP is actively working to expand group access and member discounts on health care services.
  3. Build relationships with other creative professionals. Team up with other SECP members to go after bigger contracts and projects. The most lucrative contracts sometimes don’t go to the lone freelancer. With your SECP associates you’ll be able to offer a full package of creative services.
  4. Broaden your connections with the business community. “Selling yourself” is often the least-favorite job for solo business owners. That’s why SECP is stepping up to actively market our members’ services through personal contacts, a speaker series, e-mail distribution of the Creative Directory and knocking on doors in City Hall and Salem.
  5. Take your business to the next level. Sure, you started small — but you dream big. By now you can sense that we’re committed to taking the “free” out of “freelance” and helping our members achieve success. Speakers, newsletter articles and quarterly workshops will keep you up to date and primed for growth.

FAQ

What's the difference between Basic and Associate Membership?
Basic membership allows a basic listing in SECP's web directory plus Basic members can attend SECP events for the $10 member fee. Nonmembers pay $25 to attend an event. At the time of that event, $15 of their event fee can be used toward a membership, if they choose. The Associate membership allows access to SECP's hand-picked preferred business support service providers who have offered their services for a discount to SECP's members. It also means that the member can attend special workshops given by our providers for free.
