Develop the Message

The value of your association lives inside your members’ minds. It’s not a rationale you get to dictate – it’s something you discover – from researching and talking to them. Turn their “So what?” into a clear understanding about why they can rely on you to help solve their problems.
A value proposition is a clear, short and simple rationale for every leader and staff member to use every day.
Your value proposition is the foundation of your communications strategy.
