It’s likely you know member renewals are important. The real question is\, what can we actually do to raise the chances that a member will want to stick with your association for the long-haul? While we’d all love to wave a magic wand to improve retention\, sadly they don’t exist. However\, the next best thing (and its pretty darn close) – is all your data! While associations often have access to many data points about what their members want\, few are using effective data strategies to create targeted retention campaigns. Knowing why members join\, why they stay\, why they leave and what they value most is a bit of magic that can be vital to a great retention strategy. The only way to get this type of granular information is through analytics. \nDuring this webinar\, you’ll learn a data-informed approach to member retention: \n\nUse data to determine the unique value you bring to your members.\nTranslate your retention into ROI by analyzing lifetime value.\nIdentify at-risk members through correlations\, predictive modeling and engagement scores.\n\nJoin us to take actions to clarify your value\, find your leaky buckets and create retention strategies for your at-risk member segments. \nSpeaker: Greg Pollack from Association Analytics \n\nLunch (12:15-1:15 PM) \n\nSession 3: (1:15-2:15 PM) Member Engagement is an Art and a Science. Do Both! \nCourse Description:  \nIf you’ve ever tried to engage members or get them to act and it didn’t work\, you’re not alone. The key is\, don’t keep doing it and expect different results! In this interactive session\, put on your scientist hat to explore experiments to you can do to determine what engagement strategies work. Then use your right brain to create and test new ways of communicating that improve your membership\, renewal and general member engagement results. \nYou’ll come away with: \n\nKnowledge about interpersonal theories you’ve probably never heard of\, that are highly relevant to interactions with and between your members.\nIdeas for shifting your team’s mindset about how your engagement strategy is developed\, executed and measured.\nSimple engagement tactics you’re probably not using right now and can implement easily (hint: less talking\, more listening!)\n\nSpeaker: Brianne Wheeler from PropFuel \n\nSession 4: (2:30-3:30 PM) Test Drive Your Shiny New Membership Model \nCourse Description: \nContent consumption is changing at a rapid pace. Social media\, tech companies\, and ‘end-of-the-alphabet’ generations are rewiring market demand. And while for some\, the traditional association models\, are still holding ground\, there’s a keen awareness of the change ahead for organizations. Faltering membership numbers and increasing boomer retirements are pressuring association leaders to revitalize their legacy models and brand reputations for organizational preservation.
