Hello and welcome to JP Moery’s Association Hustle Podcast. Founder of The Moery Company, JP’s mission is to arm today’s associations with insight and strategy to thrive and a progressively complex and competitive business landscape. 21st century associations must move forward with a little bit of hustle and revenue development at their core.
Here’s JP.
A prelude to the state of the industry.
There is a lot of attention on the stories of organizations, what they do, and how they lead people, but sometimes we only get half the story. There’s a lot of coverage of stories with members leaving trade associations. The attention is always on the folks that don’t renew or quit.
If a large company chooses to leave, it’s news. It’s a reflection on the association’s CEO’s leadership and the direction of the association, but my point is, where is the reflection on the corporate CEOs leadership and the company’s direction? They’re the ones choosing to leave that great organization.
Let’s keep our eye on the ball on who we should be asking the questions. Not only the association but more so on the company that’s leaving.
Membership growth and proactive membership development programs are being assessed by CEOs. Languishing membership programs drag down supplier relationships and partnerships, which is important to our top-line revenue, and our event and program attendance because we don’t have engaged members.
Workforce. I see this oddly in our motor racing sponsorships that I’m working on. These companies are using the sport to engage employees, recruit new ones, be a part of the team, and showcase that company for people that may want to work for it. They’re doing it at the track, they’re doing it through social media, and they’re even taking the car and the driver to plants to engage with employees.
Finally, a new leadership paradigm is emerging.
