Grow during the Great Recession by meeting the needs of the next generation of professionals.
END OF AN EASY ERA OF GROWTH
The Baby-Boom Generation drove the greatest era of professional expansion in modern America. Boomers by and large believed in “the system.” They flocked to professional associations that stood for widely-accepted values. They invested in solid credentials. They paid dues without question. Steady professional income supported long-term membership.
THE NEXT GENERATION IS DIFFERENT
The Boomer Generation is now nearing its end. Some work part-time while others have grudgingly accepted retirement. Generation “Y” is slowly replacing them. And things are much different. “Old school” credentials are being questioned. Standard practices are being supplanted by non-traditional methods. And stolid organizations are being pressed to prove their relevance. This is a smaller, nimbler, more skeptical group of professionals hitting their stride at a time when every dollar counts.
WHY YOU'RE AN E-BUSINESS
Enrolling the next generation of professionals requires adapting to their values and engaging them where they live: on the Internet. Applicants no longer come walking through your door. Members no longer are impressed with your street address. Everything today happens online. Your first contact is on Facebook. Your reputation is on Google. And your applications and renewals are online. But that is just the beginning. Now you've got to offer a Web 2.0-worthy value proposition.

THE IPHONE OPPORTUNITY
Every decade a disruptive technology creates an opportunity for small players to leapfrog established organizations and sieze new market share. In 1998 that technology was the World Wide Web. In 2008 that technology became mobile devices.
Today there are more mobile devices browsing the internet than personal computers. And the most popular one of all is the Apple iPhone. More than one billion apps have been downloaded from the Apple iTunes store. Where is yours?
Offering an iPhone web app has numerous benefits for your organization. It positions you as a technology leader relative to bigger and slower-moving competitors. It connects you to a marketplace used by millions of consumers and promoted by an entire ecosystem of websites and magazines. And it gives you a chance to "own" a new space where your competition is not yet entrenched.
A succesful web app sponsored by your organization can leverage word-of-mouth to cost-effectively expand your brand and cultivate new members.
What will your web app do? Contact us and let's figure that out now.
