omnichannel marketing for associations
Associations seeking to boost their membership in the wake of declining numbers since 2020 must re-examine their engagement strategies.
An omnichannel engagement strategy ensures associations communicate with their audience across all the platforms they use, providing relevant messaging for each user journey stage.
This approach ultimately works together to achieve a common goal, resulting in a seamless experience for the audience and increased affinity and advocacy for the association.
According to Google, research shows that an omnichannel engagement approach can deliver significantly higher lifetime customer value than standalone marketing strategies.
To learn more about how an omnichannel strategy can benefit your association, read our blog post at https://congrex.com/blog/omnichannel-engagement-membership-retention-association/.

Association Member Onboarding Process - Congrex Switzerland
We understand that each association is unique, with its own goals, values and member demographics. That's why it's so important to tailor the member onboarding process to meet the specific needs of each organisation.
Here are a few ways to achieve this:
👉 Personalise the experience
Consider using personalised communication and resources to make new members feel welcomed and valued. This can include sending personalised emails or offering customised resources based on the interests and needs of each member.
👉 Use data to inform your process
Collect & analyse data on your current onboarding process to identify areas for improvement. Metrics to analyse include engagement and retention rates or surveying new members to gather feedback.
👉 Utilise automation
Automating certain parts of the onboarding process can help you save time & ensure consistency. For example, you could use automated email campaigns or create a personalised onboarding checklist for new members.
👉 Consider offering a mentor or buddy system
Pairing new members with a mentor or buddy can help them feel supported and connected to the community. This can be especially helpful for larger associations or members who may be new to the field.
You can take your member onboarding process to the next level and ensure new members have a positive and valuable experience with your association.

FB - Seamless integration into the community is key to retaining new members. 15s
One of the key benefits of a strong member onboarding process is that it helps to seamlessly integrate new members into the community.
This is especially important in today's world, where many associations are relying on virtual communities to connect with their members.
Providing new members with the resources and support they need to get involved in the community can help ensure that they feel connected and engaged from the start.
Not only does this make new members feel welcome, it also encourages them to contribute to the community and get the most value out of their membership. Helping new members understand how to access and utilise the community inspires active participation and helps them take advantage of all that your association has to offer.
The onboarding process presents an opportunity to provide new members with the right resources and support to make them feel connected and engaged. This can ultimately lead to higher retention rates and a stronger, more vibrant community.
