Large associations and other member-based organizations sit on a powerful asset: vast amounts of membership data. Insights from this data can help your entire organization make more informed decisions, streamline your operations, anticipate future organizational and member needs, and deliver a better overall member experience.
But you must be able to put your data to use.
What it takes to get more from your membership data
Getting more from your membership data requires several capabilities, including:
- Bringing together data from various sources in your organization on an ongoing basis into a complete set of data
- Delivering role-based views of that data to all departments across your organization
- Making it easy to explore and gain insights from data
Your organization can get more out of your membership data by providing leadership and staff in each department with data visualizations that can help people across your organization – from membership, events, and marketing professionals to executives – gain new insights into the functional areas they oversee. This approach helps your entire organization become more data-driven, with the power to make more informed decisions that quickly deliver a return on investment.

- Which membership tiers receive the least number of joins so that you can re-evaluate the value of each membership type and add value to those types that are most likely to lapse
