SUMMARY:From Tourists to Townspeople: Turning Newcomers Into Belongers
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nWhy do people join your association—and what truly makes them stay? \nIn this fun\, strategy-rich webinar\, we’ll explore how members evolve from curious “tourists” to committed “townspeople” and how associations can guide that journey with intentional community-building and digital engagement. Inspired by the game Catan\, we’ll show how to use your marketing strategy as the roadmap to foster identity\, connection\, and long-term belonging. Because membership isn’t just about transactions—it’s about transformation. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nDefine the three stages of member engagement—Tourist\, Settler\, and Townsperson—and identify the key motivations and risks at each phase. \nApply marketing and digital strategies tailored to each member type\, including segmentation\, automation\, and personalized content. \nDesign a member experience that fosters belonging through identity-based storytelling\, feedback loops\, and progression pathways. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!
