I think Chamber professionals are by far the most inspired people on the planet!  I’m wrapping up a full week in California, and I am simply overwhelmed with what I’ve seen and experienced in the past 7 days.  It all started at the Western Association of Chamber Executives‘ annual conference in LA where I was invited to […]

There’s a famous quote by Henry Ford that reads “The only thing worse than training your employees and having them leave is NOT training them and having them STAY.”  Think about that for a minute.  No matter how big or how small your Chamber is, there’s always going to be a question about how to […]

Beyond the Boom: Changes Chambers Must Make to Engage the Next Generation

By: Sarah L. Sladek|Posted in: Chamber Membership, Chamber of Commerce, Featured, Guest Blog, Membership Organizations|November 12, 2013

Early on in my career I worked for a metropolitan Chamber and when I started the job, times were good — really good. Membership was way up, the staff was growing, and we were spending money like it grew on trees. Then, something happened in the early 2000s. Membership took a nosedive, 19 staff left, […]

As I write this post, I am sitting in a gorgeous hotel with an absolutely breathtaking view of the city of Reno and the surrounding mountain ranges.  But what is even more incredible than the panorama in front of me is the group of people surrounding me.  Annette and I are attending the 2013 Chamber […]

Would your organization like to run in house membership campaigns that will get you more members in a MUCH shorter period and KEEP those members LONG-TERM?

 

Is your Association or Chamber thinking about doing your own internally-led Membership Campaign or New Member Drive? If you’ve done them in the past, you know that they can take a long time, they’re a LOT of work, you tend to get weak results and the members who DO join don’t stick around come renewal time.

 

That’s why I’ve written this Do-It-Yourself guide to Membership Campaigns.

 

The days of “Membership Campaigns as Fund-Raisers” are long over. It’s time to focus on long-term, sustainable growth for your organization. This manual will get you there NOW!
