    🎯 Ready, aim, throw! The Kellen team took a break to test our skills in a totally different arena 🪓. Our ax throwing summer outing was all about bonding and friendly competition. It was a great reminder that whether it's throwing axes or driving results for our clients, teamwork and precision are always at the core of what we do. Plus, it's not every day you get to say, "Let's sharpen our skills!" and really mean it. 😉 #SummerOuting #TeamWork #OneKellen #ThrowSocialDC #AssociationManagement #WashingtonDC

    Kellen Question of the Week Series - a space for association leaders to engage, discuss, learn, and share. ⭐ Let's Talk: Cost-savings ❔ This week's question: We have heard there are cost-savings associated with working with an Association Management ‎Company (AMC) as we don’t need to fully pay for overhead, benefits and salaries ourselves. How ‎does that work?‎ By sharing resources, reducing overhead costs, and handling comprehensive benefits packages, AMCs provide a financially savvy alternative to managing all operational aspects internally. 📌 Shared Resources: ‎One of the significant cost-saving benefits of working with an AMC like Kellen is resource sharing. ‎Instead of hiring a full-time staff for every function, associations can leverage our pool of experts ‎across various disciplines—such as marketing, event planning, finance, advocacy, and ‎membership management. This means you only pay for the services you need when you need ‎them. 💲 Reduced Overhead Costs: ‎Maintaining office space, utilities, and equipment can be a significant financial burden for any ‎association. When you partner with an AMC, these overhead costs are minimized or even ‎eliminated, as we absorb many of these expenses within our operational framework.‎ ‎ 👫 Comprehensive Benefits Packages: ‎Providing comprehensive benefits packages to employees can be expensive. By collaborating ‎with an AMC, you don’t have to worry about that, as the employees that work with your ‎association are Kellen employees. We handle benefits and all HR related functions. What are your thoughts? Share your experiences in the comments. We'd also love to hear from you directly: https://bit.ly/3LSsEQU #OneKellen #Associations #BoardLeadership #AssociationManagement #membership

    Kellen Question of the Week #1   Let's Talk: Financial Stability for Associations We're launching the Kellen Question of the Week series, a space for association leaders to engage, discuss, learn, and share!   This week's question: Our industry is consolidating, and membership dues are declining. How can we ensure financial stability for our association?   Strategies to consider: 🔄 Diversify Revenue: Explore sponsorships, advertising, education programs, including webinars, workshops, conferences, and certifications. 💰 Optimize Resources: Review your expenses and find areas to cut costs without compromising member value. This could mean renegotiating contracts, adopting cost-effective technologies, or streamlining processes. 🌟 Enhance Member Value: Focus on delivering exceptional value to retain and attract members. Personalized communication, exclusive content, networking opportunities, advocacy, and professional development resources can increase member satisfaction and loyalty. 🤝 Strategic Partnerships: Collaborate with other organizations, industry leaders, and businesses for joint ventures, co-hosted events, or member benefit programs. This opens new revenue channels and strengthens your value proposition. 📊 Data-Driven Decisions: Use analytics to understand member behavior and tailor offerings.   What are your thoughts? Share your experiences in the comments!   #onekellen #associations #associationmanagement #nonprofit #financialstability #membership   P.S. Follow us to stay tuned for next week's question!
