Project details

What we need
  • A Membership Strategy document of 2-4 pages, including analysis of the Organization’s current membership program, step-by-step guide to a new or improved program, growth goals and creative outreach strategies
Additional details

Seeking creative ways to engage our current membership more strategically by fostering a culture of "delight" and establishing a membership funnel that leads to increased memberships, events RSVPs and donations. I'm also seeking strategic ways to utilize our volunteers in a more effective way during committee meetings and creating a culture where they are consistently on a scheduled rotation with clear objectives and expectations.

What we have in place
  • We currently have membership pages, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have committee notes, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,848 , allowing us to cover expenses needed to expand our capacity.

I will increase our membership, which will ultimately increase our budget, it will also help us establish a culture of delight that supports our branding.
