NALS members are passionate about what benefits the association provides to them and their careers. But does your firm know? What about your community? How do leaders get the word out in such a way that everything your chapter offers is benefiting legal professionals in your city or state? This information-packed session will provide an overview of the Top 5 critical components of marketing to assist not only in making your presence known, but also leaving a lasting impression. Participants will also join in a brief discussion to reignite the passion of chapter leaders to share the word about who/what NALS is and what it has to offer to every legal professional everywhere.

Join this session to share and discuss emerging membership models that hold the most promise for associations to generate new revenue streams and grow membership. We will briefly examine the past and present NALS membership model, which was responsible for creating a strong association. We will quickly change the focus to forward-thinking methods designed to generate new ideas, create alternatives, increase the value of membership, and use technology to engage and captivate our future audience. This upbeat, positive, and thought-provoking session promises to leave you feeling connected and realizing that, while membership remains very important, it will look very different in the future. To make the most of your experience, please read The End of Membership As We Know It, Building the Fortune-Flipping, Must-Have Association of the New Century by Sarah L. Sladek.
