Thanksgiving just came and went, and we’re still feeling thankful:

⤷ For the associations who trust us to help them grow.
⤷ For the partners who make collaboration easy.
⤷ And for our team, the people who show up every day ready to make a difference.

Hope you had a great holiday (and maybe some leftovers to get you through today).

What’s something you’re thankful for this year?

Did you know:

We'll represent your association onsite at major industry events on your behalf.

Last week, our account executive Melissa DeGraw was at two separate conferences for our clients. She worked their booths, connected with members, pitched sponsors, and built relationships that actually matter.

Your association's event presence can be one of your biggest revenue drivers if every interaction is intentional.

We know, saying it out loud can seem a bit obvious.

Most association teams are already juggling too much. That's where we come in. We show up, execute your strategy, and make sure nothing slips through the cracks.

Your events should make you money, not just exhaust your staff.

In 2026, one of the most valuable skills will be how good you are at unlearning.

What worked yesterday may not work tomorrow, and that’s okay. Growth comes from letting go of old habits and embracing new strategies that fit today’s challenges.

Here’s what successful associations are unlearning:

✔️ The “Do It All” Mindset:

You don’t have to take everything on alone. Real impact comes from collaboration. Two minds are always better than one.

✔️ Relying on Past Success:

What got you here might not get you where you want to go. The landscape has changed, and the strategies that worked before need to evolve with it.

✔️ Waiting for Perfection:

Perfection can slow progress. In 2026, progress will come from taking action, learning, and iterating as you go.

Helping associations unlearn what’s holding them back and adopt strategies that increase revenue, visibility, and success is what we're known for.

Happy Halloween everybody! 🎃

Let's play a game...

Which of these association horror stories scare you the most?

The best strategic plans don't happen by accident.

Big Red M's Sales and Marketing team just wrapped up our annual strategic planning retreat in Alexandria, VA, setting our sights on 2026 and beyond.

This year's session was intensely focused, filled with discovery, alignment, and bold direction for what's next.

There's something powerful about stepping away from the day-to-day to sharpen our strategy, reconnect in person, and make sure we're all rowing in the same direction.

We're proud of the goals we set, and even more excited to bring them to life.

Ready to align your team for 2026 initiatives? Let's talk.

Friday at 3 PM: Are you closing strong or closing your laptop?

Every association leader has their own end-of-week rhythm. Some are powering through one last proposal or member call. Others are reflecting on the week's wins and challenges. Then there are the strategic planners already mapping Monday's priorities, and those who've earned an early exit.

There's no right answer. How you wrap up your week often reflects how you lead and recharge.

So, which Friday type are you?

The Finisher - One more email, one more task. You're going out strong.
The Reflector - Weekly wins, lessons learned, gratitude logged.
The Planner - Next week's priorities are already color-coded.
The Early Exit - Laptop closed. Brain off. Weekend mode: activated.

We work with association leaders who are all of the above (sometimes in the same day). The common thread is they're looking for partners who understand the rhythm of association work and can jump in without missing a beat. That's where having seen what works across different associations and industries makes all the difference.

What's your Friday style? Drop it in the comments!

Our amazing design team made their way to Grapevine, Texas this week for their annual strategic planning session and the multi-day Circles Conference. Every year we make sure our team gets the inspiration and skills they need to keep crushing it for the association community.

We've heard a great response from our design team members about the incredible lineup of speakers and workshop leaders covering everything from personal creative challenges that became major projects to down-to-earth stories about professional growth.

A few that really stood out so far:
Scott Fuller from Studio Temporary had everyone captivated with his emotional and inspiring journey, while Tad Carpenter's Sunday Suns project (creating sun art every single Sunday!) showed how personal challenges can turn into something amazing. Our team was so inspired they bought a sun as a keepsake! ☀️ And with so many great talks and hands-on sessions, there were insights around every corner.

Plus there's nothing like those "small world" moments when you bump into old friends.

These are the experiences that light the creative fire and spark those "aha!" moments. All so we can keep bringing fresh, innovative solutions to the associations we're lucky enough to work with.

Growth shouldn’t clash with culture. It should flow through it.

What if your association could grow non-dues revenue without creating chaos for your team?

That balance is possible. It starts with partnership that supports your strategy while respecting your processes and priorities.

For one client, that meant taking on the heavy lifting behind the scenes. For another, it was providing guidance that helped them make smarter decisions without disrupting their workflow.

Curious how to modernize your NDR strategy while keeping your culture intact?

Most associations are stuck using the same outdated strategies and revenue models year after year and wondering why growth has stalled.

Sound familiar?

The problem isn’t that associations aren’t trying, it’s that they’re relying on what USED to work.

↳ Sending the same emails and getting fewer responses.
↳ Hosting events but struggling with attendance.
↳ Launching new initiatives that don’t gain traction.

The reality is that your members have changed. Your strategy needs to change too.

The associations seeing real growth in 2025 are rethinking:
↳ How they communicate with members (hint: email alone isn’t enough).
↳ How they refine revenue streams beyond membership.
↳ How they adapt to shifting industry expectations.

That shift doesn’t happen overnight, but it starts with knowing where your revenue strategy stands today.

That’s why we created our newest free resource, "24-Step Non-Dues Revenue Growth Diagnostic." This serves as a simple way to spot gaps, uncover opportunities, and take the first step toward true revenue growth and diversification.
