LAST CHANCE TO JOIN! 📣

Planning can feel impossible when your strategic goals aren’t crystal clear. We’ve all had those moments - running campaigns, scheduling posts, and sending emails that don’t quite connect with our strategic vision. That’s “busy marketing,” and we’re saying goodbye to it.

This Tuesday, 4 November at 11:00am AEDT, we’re kicking off the Building Your Association’s 2026 Marketing & Engagement Planning Bootcamp with an energising strategy session led by Lindsay McGrath, who’ll help you link every marketing move to real outcomes that drive your association forward.

The live session is free to attend to everyone, whether you're part of the Bootcamp program or not.

What You'll Learn:

✅ Translate your association’s business priorities into clear, actionable marketing goals
✅ Demonstrate how marketing drives organisational growth and shines as a strategic function, not just a support role
✅ Walk away with practical tools to bridge the strategy-to-execution gap
✅ Break down silos by collaborating with other departments so marketing is integrated across the whole organisation
✅ Avoid the common pitfall of “busy” marketing that looks active but fails to deliver real impact

Last week, we kicked off our 2025 Marketing Planning Bootcamp, and what a group we have this year!

We have participants from 4 countries, from experienced CEOs with 30+ years in the sector to those just starting their journey in membership marketing. From associations with elaborate tech stacks to those taking their first steps in digital transformation.

We have associations representing podiatrists and investment advisors, early childhood educators and strata managers, healthcare and research professionals. Some managing 80 members, others with 20,000+.

Despite our different backgrounds, we're all facing similar challenges: limited resources, small teams wearing multiple hats, finding time for planning (not just reacting), creating meaningful member engagement, and navigating digital tools. One person said they're here because they want accountability, another said they're drowning in last-minute event requests, a few are building their first-ever marketing strategy.

Over the next five weeks, we're diving deep. Strategy. Marketing Tools. Smart planning. The Membership Marketing Framework that I've been taking around the world. Content. Tech. All the things that keep us up at night.

We're genuinely grateful for your trust in this program. Hearing everyone's pain points, goals, and aspirations during our kickoff reminded us why we love this sector so much. We're all in this together, and we're committed to making your time investment pay off!

P.S. If you're reading this thinking "damn, I should've signed up", we've only had one intro session, so it's not too late to jump in for the best part!

Retention isn’t magic.. It’s communication done right.

We help associations like yours build structured communication plans that keep members engaged at every stage, from first impressions to renewal reminders.

Our approach? Simple but strategic.

We start by mapping your member journey, then design communication touchpoints that feel timely, relevant, and authentic, not just transactional. Because members renew when they feel connected.

If your emails, newsletters, and updates aren’t sparking response or engagement anymore, it might be time to refresh your approach.

💬 Book a quick call with us to explore how we can help you plan communication that truly connects.

So many associations fall into the trap of busy marketing - campaigns, emails, and socials that look active but don’t tie back to the bigger goals.

Your marketing plan shouldn’t just look good on paper; it should help your association grow.

We're kicking off our 2026 Marketing & Engagement Planning Bootcamp with Lindsay McGrath next week as he shows how to align your 2026 plan with your organisation’s real priorities and stop doing “busy” marketing that doesn’t deliver.

⏰ Last call, association pros!

If your 2026 marketing and member engagement plan is still sitting in a draft folder, half-thought-through, or living in your head… it’s time to bring it to life, and you don’t have to do it alone.

The Building Your Association’s 2026 Marketing & Member Engagement Plan Bootcamp kicks off this Thursday, 30 October, and it’s your final chance to jump in before doors close!

Over the next five weeks, you’ll work alongside fellow association professionals who are tackling the same challenges, and you'll have access to expert templates, live sessions, peer feedback, and on-demand training - everything you need to turn ideas into a plan you can actually implement. 🎯

And here’s the best part: it’s not just about learning. It’s about doing it together in a collaborative, supportive space that keeps you motivated (and accountable!) from week one through to the finish line.

Doors close soon! Are you in? 👉https://zurl.co/skbaE
