Why Did you join VISA?
I joined VISA because I sensed that VISA had more energy and “get up and go” than the MIA.

I was a member of the MIA and I made sure all of my staff were members even though I grew disenchanted with how useful they were.
It all came to a head when I approached the MIA to help with an issue and they were a complete waste of space.
The final straw was when they advised me that I was “required” to do something by a particular date. All they cared about was money! (The MIA was so unreasonable) I was offended and told them to end my relationship!.
Join VISA to enjoy these great member rewards offered by our official sponsors and partners for less than a cheap cup of coffee a week!
