Brian Solis, in his post, The Importance of Brand in an Era of Digital Darwinism , talks about tone-deaf brands like Netflix that didn’t engage with customers and didn’t monitor social network conversations, consequently screwing up and losing their customers’ trust: “Brands that fail to instill this level of confidence in consumers run the risk of falling to digital Darwinism.

Museums and associations, they’re more alike than you think. Nonprofit mission-driven membership institutions governed by member boards. Engaging audiences through education. Traditional and hierarchic cultures. Professional staff siloed in departments. Risk-averse and slow-moving. Striving to remain meaningful to a growing younger market. While volunteering in two different museums, I overheard many staff conversations: they worry about the same things we do.

There’s a restaurant saying, “turn ‘em and burn ‘em.” Get customers in the seats and back out the doors as quickly as possible.

I thought of “turn ‘em and burn em” recently when I read this in MGI’s Membership Marketing Benchmark Report : for every dollar spent on recruitment, associations spend only 27 cents on new member onboarding and

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance.

I fell into the association world. During the first interview my future boss and I hit it off talking about food and travel. The position sounded interesting so I bit. I’m not the only one. I bet many of you accidentally landed in associations. After that first job, we were hooked. We were promoted or moved to another association. We learned that despite some similarities, each association is unique.
