The Keys to Robust Membership Strategy HOW THE SOLUTION CAN HELP GROW AND MAINTAIN YOUR ORGANIZATION Membership is the force that drives any association or chamber of commerce, but it is not uncommon for organizations to struggle with retention and engagement. A robust membership strategy is all about effective recruitment, streamlined onboarding and consistent engagement. The first step is to establish the value of your membership. This begins with understanding your current and prospective members. Foster two-way communication so you can understand what members want and how you can best serve them. Then, define the difference between membership “features” versus “benefits.” For example, the feature may be “networking,” but the value statement could be “connect with professionals committed to the highest professional standards for support and advice.” These messages need to be incorporated throughout your marketing and communications.
