Historically and colloquially, "madness" has also been used to describe extreme, irrational, or reckless folly, such as "a total, absolute, and total lack of judgment". Sounds like something from my personal highlight reel.
So, the last time we did 'March Madness' at NYDLA was in 2022. And it was a huge success. It became one of our best DLA membership recruitment drives, ever. What is true madness? We did not do it (again) in 2023, 2024 or 2025. My bad.
March Madness 2026 OK, so here's the deal: we have sourced the top 64 vendors from our relationships with TD SYNNEX, Ingram Micro, Jenne, D&H, Sandler Partners (and more). And we have added our DIRECT Master Agent | Tier 1 ELITE reseller wholesale agreements. For the month of March 2026 our cost pricing is YOURS. Our SPA (Special Price Authorization) volume contracts have become a member benefit for our NYDLA | NADLA community. Across North America.
If you already went to joinNYDLA.org and became a paid member - great! You are in the money! Smart!
Since 1983: Distance Learning > DIGITAL Learning > DIGITAL LIVING. We service 174K+ K-20 schools across North America. And we service 17K+ trucking companies. And 16K+ municipalities. And 8K+ car dealerships. And 6K+ hospitals. And we service the ALUMNI of our 174K+ K-20 schools. It's K-20 because we service law schools, med schools, grad schools too. Our buying power is massive (over $1B+) growing since 1983. Amazing what you can accomplish when you work 7 days a week for 40 years! { ah, just not in a row }
And we are gifting the books of our CoffeeInTheClouds.com authors. ALL OF THEM! Pick of the litter, if you will.
Our 'shop' on the top left corner of NYDLA is our BigCommerce Agentic AI Ecommerce store - TAC. This is the engine that drives the business 24x7x365. ALL of the products, all of the services, the books, the courses that we have in our DLA universe. And when you joinNYDLA.org you access the Technology ASSURANCE Cooperative (TAC-USA.com) for FREE. Think of it like a mashup of Costco, Amazon Prime, Best Buy and maybe Gartner and McKinsey & Company. We built TAC to be the 'campus store' in the clouds for our 174K+ schools (and their students, and their alumni). It was all just a dream until we met the folks at BigCommerce. We could email our 174K+ schools right now (today) and invite them all to TAC-USA and we would still sleep well at night.
Ah yes, Agentic AI Ecommerce has arrived.
So there you have it - March Madness 2026. We're emailing (and calling) our 174K+ schools - and the ALUMNI of our 174K+ schools making sure that they know it would be pure madness to not joinNYDLA.org THIS MONTH. Time to play like a CHAMPION.
