Using strategic partnerships to increase membership engagement and profit

How a strategic partnership helped member engagement and drove £4m of sales enquiries for member companies of a trade association.

Trade associations play a pivotal role in empowering their members to drive business growth by offering a suite of strategic resources and opportunities. By facilitating robust networking platforms, associations enable members to forge valuable connections and partnerships, expanding their reach and influence within the industry. By leveraging these collective efforts, associations help their members not only survive but thrive, fostering a vibrant and dynamic professional community.

Join Rennie Schafer from the UK Self Storage Association, one of the leading heads of an association in the UK, and Laura Moxham from Your Business Angels (YBA) for an insightful seminar on the transformative power of strategic partnerships to significantly enhance your association's value proposition and support members' business growth.
