“There are even more wonderful things about an NFIB career, starting with the benefits! There aren’t words to describe the peace of mind and the security I feel, knowing that I have my family covered now. The flexibility of this job also helps me to be a better dad and husband.”

-BLAINE BAMBROUGH

“I love working for the mission of NFIB on behalf of small business owners.
My one regret is that I didn’t start with NFIB sooner!”

-Ethan Hobson, Membership Representative

“I truly feel grateful that I am in a position to coach and develop my peers. Helping others increase their chances of being successful is something I enjoy doing. Another reason I’ve stayed at NFIB is attributed to the culture of NFIB. Everybody supports everybody else.”

“Right now is the perfect climate both literally and metaphorically speaking. Seize the opportunity and make IT happen!”

- Mindy Kubrin Membership Representative    

I came to NFIB when I was 18, just out of high school. I met my husband here. I feel like I’ve lived my life here. And I am so appreciative of all the stability and advantages I have had throughout these 25 years. I am especially grateful for the life I have been able to give my sons because of the opportunity NFIB affords me. The healthy teeth, gorgeous smiles and good educations that my sons have are advantages that will benefit them throughout their entire lives. I have never taken those privileges for granted.

The wonderful NFIB trips that I have taken provided experiences that I never would have had on my own. I won a number of Quarterly Achiever’s Clubs, which we had before President’s Club, and I’ve won eight President’s Clubs. Every one of them was out-of-the-box spectacular!

My retirement years will also be completely different than my parents’ because of my career at NFIB. I have always participated in the 401(k) program. My comfort, security and peace of mind will continue on after I retire, thanks to NFIB.

- Dina Deaunovich Telephone Sales Representative
