At the local association, you have the best opportunity for education, networking, and leadership.
You have a whole year for the membership to engage. Don’t think of this as a gym membership where you sign up but don’t go to the gym! Attend local chapter events and get involved.
Add specifics for your local association to this slide or add one to show the unique opportunities your association offers such as creative education, networking opportunities, Regional Conference, golf outings, etc. Another great way to enhance the local association slides is with a few testimonial slides or video clips of what members have enjoyed about their membership on a local level.
