    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!

    This Fourth of July, let's celebrate with friends and family while keeping healthy. Nutrition plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy airways, and a few dietary tweaks can go a long way. Our client partner, Foundation for Airway Health, believes a delicious celebration can go hand-in-hand with respiratory well-being.   Tips to Maintain Healthy Airways:   🥕 Pack a Punch with Antioxidants: Fight free radical damage (pollution, smoke) with antioxidant-rich foods like carrots, sweet potatoes, citrus fruits, and berries. These powerhouses protect your lung tissue and keep your respiratory system strong. 🐟 Omega-3s for Reduced Inflammation: Enjoy fatty fish (salmon, mackerel) or incorporate flaxseeds and walnuts into your diet. Omega-3s boast anti-inflammatory properties, particularly helpful for those managing chronic respiratory conditions. 🥬 Magnesium for Relaxed Breathing: Almonds, spinach, and whole grains are excellent sources of magnesium, a mineral that relaxes bronchial muscles and aids in easier breathing. 🥗 Embrace the Mediterranean Diet: This dietary pattern, rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein, has been linked to improved lung function and reduced risk of chronic respiratory diseases. Bonus Tip: Incorporate probiotics (yogurt, kefir) for a gut health boost! A healthy gut can influence respiratory health by modulating your immune system.   Let's celebrate a healthy and vibrant Fourth of July!    #lunghealth #nutrition #healthylifestyle #FourthofJuly   P.S. Dig deeper into the science behind nutrition and healthy airways in our blog post. Link in the comments.

    Expressing pride in the workplace means: 🏳️🌈 Remembering everything you’ve gone through to get to where you are now . . . Growing up in a small town, I was bullied, called names and made to feel shame by the more conservative side of my family. Joke’s on them. 🏳️🌈 Bringing your authentic self to work, and speaking out if you’re being discriminating against (yes, this includes micro-aggressions) . . . I’m thankful to my company, Kellen, for being a safe space. 🏳️🌈 Remaining committed to uplifting all other minority/marginalized groups. The LGBTQIA+ community has a duty to support other disadvantaged groups: religious minorities, POC, disabled peoples, oppressed peoples, etc. . . “Nobody’s free until everybody’s free” — Fannie Lou Hamer. #PrideMonth
