- Finding: All respondent groups think the benefits for the good of the order are just slightly more important than personal benefits. Conventional wisdom, and many past programs, have suggested that the decision to join is rooted in ROI, value to individual. While personal value is important, the good of the order is actually significantly more important. For example, others suggest dollar value for every benefit … may not be that direct. Have associations put too much emphasis on marketing the personal benefits? Personal benefits make a compelling case for return on investment (ROI) reasons that an individual may use to justify membership. The good-of-the-order benefits to the field raise the tides under everyone. Mean index for personal benefits was 3.4 and 3.6 for good-of-the-order benefits.
- One lens on the “mailboxer” question that I found very insightful are the findings related to “The Ultimate Question” from the Decision to Join. In short, we see that those members who volunteer are more likely to be a promoter of the association – powerful stuff indeed. And that’s in addition to all of the other benefits volunteering brings to the organization and to the member, as demonstrated on the next slide … Answers based on a 10 point scale 9-10Promoter 7-8 Passive 6 or lessDetractor Probability of being a “promoter” of the association increases with level of involvement Advocacy, networking and leadership opportunities become more important as level of involvement increases Finding: The probability of being a “promoter” of the association increases with one’s level of involvement. Members who do not become involved in their association are perilously close to former members in their estimations of the value they receive. Fifteen percent of the survey respondents said they were involved at the governing or committee level, which is about the level of involvement many association execs cite when asked about the participation level in their association.
- Not necessarily join, but hear of. Build awareness.

- Digital Mobility means … Devices (including the internet of things) People (on the move, time-pressed, digital identities) Information processes (location aware, digital assistance, self-adjusting) Behavior (always on, consulting web and friends) Digital Mobility Digital Mobility means more than just mobile technology It includes the devices we use to connect to the Internet (including the internet of things); the mobility of the people who live in a digitally-enabled, time-pressed world; the information processes that create an immersive experience in that world, which may include location-aware services, digital assistance, or an environment which adjusts to your presence (think Minority Report). All of these factors influence behavior, including an "always on" culture, in which some have become almost dependent on their devices and digital networks to accomplish almost any task. In thinking about the trend of digital mobility, here are a few pieces of advice: Design with mobile in mind - Begin by thinking how you can use mobile technology to reinvent or improve an experience. Think mobile first - It's probably true that mobile may not currently be the most frequent way that your members engage with your association. But the rapid increase in mobile devices, comfort, and preference for mobile solutions is inevitable. Design for the future, not the past. Think “mobile” throughout - It's not enough to think about how to market an event on a mobile friendly website ... you also need to think about how you make it easy for people to engage during the event with their devices. Consider how mobile can be integrated into every step of the process ... you may not integrate it at every step, but the best way to have great ideas is to have lots of ideas from which to choose.
