Associations face many challenges, and in this day and age it can be a struggle to survive. Walsworth wants to help, and we’ve done so by creating a new eBook to assist associations with membership growth and retention called Making it Easier.
Cornerstones
This eBook builds upon four cornerstones: engage, retain, balance and sustain. It covers how to engage with association members, how to retain those members, how to balance the mix of print and digital, and how to sustain your association by appealing to young people.
What it includes
Making It Easier includes advice and expertise from leaders in the field. This eBook includes steps your association can take immediately, as well as strategies for long-term success. It will help you understand how to handle the challenges facing your association.
