Business Membership Application

Instructions

Thank you for considering BECMA membership!

For Business Memberships, the application takes ~25 minutes to complete. These prospective members must complete our annual Business Snapshot, a survey designed to help target your business with capacity-building programs, as well as inform our future program development and advocacy efforts. Case in point: As of 2024 BECMA has distributed $1M+ in programs and services to 400+ members.

For Ally Memberships, the application takes only 5 minutes to complete. These members do not need to complete the Business Snapshot.

If you are completing the Business Snapshot, be as thorough and honest as possible. Everything shared will remain fully confidential. Also, we know running a business is hard; these questions are not meant to judge your business, but rather isolate the areas where we can best support you. Before starting, get the requisite information in front of you. We ask you to report the following:

  • Revenue and net income from your last fiscal year
  • Capital raised in your last 12 months
  • Number of full-time employees
  • Approximate cash reserves and credit score

If you need help on the form, please reach out to membership@becma.org
