Associations are a great resource for their members. Guiding them through your content, educating them, and advocating for them are just some of the ways associations communicate in today’s world. Making sure that content is easily understandable to your audience, members or not, is key.  

When explaining a new concept, it’s tempting to dive into the technical language that you are so comfortable with, but should you?

The key to recruitment, retention and revenue is engagement. As associations and association partners, we spend a lot of time and energy focused on engagement. What will keep members around?

Or, maybe you like the idea of video, but need a little back-up convincing your team or board members. Well, you’re in luck!

Delivering content catered to mobile consumption is imperative to maximizing reach and relevancy for today’s audiences. As generations shift, so do preferences. In order to remain relevant, associations need to embrace digital – and more specifically mobile. The majority of members join associations for the first time as students or within the first 5 years of their careers. If you are not targeting the new workforce, you may be missing out on a huge opportunity.
