The CEO as Personality-in-Chief

 

As the face of an organization, how a CEO presents to members, staff, and the public matters. Many association chief staff executives say they are most effective when they bring their full selves to the role, using open communication and connections to establish personal, authentic, and transparent relationships with the people they serve.

4 Tips for Maximizing Association Membership

 

Similar to how nonprofit organizations implement donor retention strategies, associations work to keep members renewing each year.

They’re not only “members” in the sense that they get discounts or a subscription ― it’s about belonging. Your members are everyone involved with your organization, all parts of a greater whole.

Creating a dedicated association website.

Just like a nonprofit’s webpage, there are certain essentials that your association website requires to meet basic needs. Similar to how donors seek an online donation form, think about the end targets of users on your website.

Providing a space for online community building.

As your association gets larger, active online member engagement ensures that your membership stays unified.

Personalizing communication for each member.

If you want to offer an unparalleled member experience, consider ways to personalize each member’s journey based on their preferences.

Hosting events that members want.

Although providing an enhanced online experience is key to maximizing association membership, they can’t replace holding in-person events.
