The 2026 TIE Annual Meeting will be held in Louisville, Kentucky from September 13-17, 2026. TIE's annual business meeting will take place on Tuesday, September 15, beginning at 9 a.m., Eastern Time.

Members of the TIE Account Team are employees of Forrest T. Jones & Company who provide service to the TIE associations and their members.

Forrest T. Jones & Company is pleased to offer online ordering of customized marketing materials that associations can use to promote their member insurance program. The available marketing materials are printed on demand, and there is no cost to associations for this program.

To begin an order, visit our print vendor, ProPrint Digital, using the button below. Choose your association acronym from the drop-down menu on the ordering website to see the materials that are available for your association.

Features of the online ordering system include:

• User-friendly interface
• Online proof of your association's brochure displays exactly how your brochure will print before you order.
• Order as often as you need.
• Order only what you need for immediate use (minimum order is 100)
• History of your past orders, including dates and quantities.

You will receive an order confirmation at the end of the ordering process. If you do not see an order confirmation number on the final screen, your order was not received. Contact your account executive (Grace Parish or Mike Williams) for assistance.

Please allow up to 10 business days for production and delivery of your order.
