As a speaker one of the most important markets to crack if you want to see exponential growth in your business is the association market.
Like every other industry the association market is being disrupted. And those who don't keep up with the changes are going to get left behind.
This 30 minute workshop is going to walk you through the 7 trends you need to understand in order to ride the wave of change and increase your association-related business in the next 12 months.
Here are the association-related trends I'll cover in this workshop:
- Membership
- Technology
- Budget Constraints
- Greater Reliance on Non-Dues Revenue
- Competition: Traditional and Non-Traditional
- Culture: Getting Unstuck
- Association Executive Job Tenure (What Keeps Them Up at Night?)
