Your membership constituents are your most valuable asset. Keeping and maintaining a healthy and vibrant community means consistently delivering value at every step along their relationship journey with you. For best-in-class membership organizations, this translates into continually improving services for your members to access. But most membership organizations are operating under constraints with limited budgets and resources.
Where Is Your Value Residing?
For many associations and regulatory bodies, they are the keepers of a wealth of unexplored value. Value that lies in silos around your organization and can often be found in excel spreadsheets, access databases, credentials systems, case management processes, paper-based files, contact databases, event attendee lists, and third party information sources. The list is endless and while it lacks power in isolation, when combined can provide a vast repository just waiting to be explored.
What Value Can I Unlock?
The ability to tap real-time into the collective conscious of your membership enables you to be responsive, pro-active and genuinely engaged with your community. For constituent members, the more you respond to their needs, the more engaged they are, making it more likely that they will remain connected with you. In many cases this strengthened relationship represents opportunities to provide new streams of revenue growth through classes, events or other billable services.
