by Frank Kenny. In any member-based organization, successful member onboarding is perhaps the single most important activity. It’s more important than marketing and more important than sales. Why? A poorly onboarded member is: more likely to drop. less likely to invest in non-dues revenue products. less likely to refer others to your organization.

One year ago today, DC shut down for the pandemic. One year ago yesterday, I went to my last in-person boxing class at Nuboxx and had my last meal in a restaurant (brunch with friends at Coconut Club at Union Market).
