®Why People Join
• Mailboxers: judge the association almost entirely by what they get in the mail. Likely to ask “Is the material I get in the mail worth the dues?"
• Relevant Participants: judge the association by meetings; attend meetings for both information-gathering and networking purposes.
• Cognoscenti: join and stay because they are seeking specialized information that they cannot get anywhere else. Ensure these individuals get up-to-date and accurate information.
• Status-Conscious: join for the status an association provides. This might include its reputation, awards programs, publisher or speaking opportunities or other recognition programs.
• Shapers: join and stay primarily to have the opportunity to shape association policy.
• Altruistics: generally motivated by the values of the association; must be motivated by the message.
• Comparison shoppers: shop between associations that can meet the same or similar needs.
• Doubters: need to be continually convinced why they should belong.
• Not-relevants: will leave if the organization becomes irrelevant to their needs.
