What is Compuco's Membership Extras CiviCRM Extension and what does it add for membership organisations? Watch the full talk from our recent meetup below for a full rundown!

Associations are under constant pressure to do more with less, to offer increasing value to members, while also create additional revenue. Yet the association business model is under assault: a tough economy has taken its toll on membership revenues, younger prospective members are “nibblers” not joiners, and convention revenues are no longer reliable. Join CSAE Griner Award recipient Randall Craig for a conversation and new thinking on association business models: 🤔 Is the traditional association business model really in jeopardy? Can it be rescued? (We also think so.) 🤔 Non-dues revenue beyond sponsorships, certification renewals, and trade show booth sales. 🤔 Is it really possible to compete against “free” alternatives, and win? In this session, we’ll delve into the answers to the above questions, and provide bold (and realistic) recommendations on them. We will also spend some time on membership retention and demonstrating member value, including: ✅ Building an aligned, growth-minded member community. ✅ Productivity and value: How to outsource draining ongoing responsibilities to free up staff and volunteer time for higher order priorities. 🗓️ Date: Wednesday, November 6 at 12 noon ET Register here (no cost to attend) 👉 https://lnkd.in/gD6VxVJP Please send your questions in advance to ronja@randallcraig.com and we will do our best to address them during the hour.

🚀 Unreal Response to the Launch of The Lekker Network Founding Membership! Yesterday, we officially kicked off our Founding Membership drive, and I’m absolutely blown away by the interest and support we’ve received. 🌍 In just one day, we’ve received R400,000 in founding member contributions from our incredible founding members! 🎉 The response has been beyond anything we could have imagined—thank you to everyone who has come on board so far. Our goal is ambitious: we’re aiming for R3 million+ in founding memberships to help create this platform and initiative, and we can only do it with your continued support. 100% of contributions from our founding members will go directly toward building and launching The Lekker Network. If you want to be a part of something special, join us as a Founding Member and help us make this vision a reality. Let’s build this platform together and connect South Africans around the world. 🇿🇦 -- A few things to note, > The founding membership covers your first year of membership. Which activates when we go live > March 2025 > The membership fee is 100% refundable if canceled before our launch date in March 2025. > As a founding member, you will have a front-row seat to the creation of The Lekker Network and you will be given a voice to provide advice and guidance on how we build the Network.  > The founding membership round will only accept a maximum of 200 founders. We are creating a community built by the community! If you're keen to be part of this initiative visit https://lnkd.in/dJt5M6ka for more info and you can signup on the site as well.

Happy New Year to you all, hope it brings you brings you health, happiness, and prosperity. Here are the details about an online networking event I'm running next week, register to join now! Event: Gambling Related Financial Harm (GRFH) Networking Event When: Friday, 17 January, 10-11am  Platform: Zoom Session Details: Under government plans, gambling operators in Great Britain will soon begin contributing to a statutory levy to fund research, prevention and treatment of gambling harms. This new levy will replace the current voluntary system, where gambling companies determine their contributions. Pollyanna Hopkins from GamCare's External Affairs team will share the details about the levy, which is set to come into force later this year. Plus, we will delve into the topic of gambling harm during Christmas. A recent GamCare survey revealed that 59% of those experiencing gambling problems are more likely to gamble at Christmas compared to other times of the year - an increase from 37% last year. Morika Campbell, Team Manager on the National Gambling Helpline, will share the latest stats and trends from the Helpline, which operates 24/7 (including Christmas Day). This will be followed by an informal networking session, where you can connect directly with other professionals working in the #vulnerablecustomer and #gamblingrelatedfinancialharm space.
