Shane Feldman, CAE ‏@shfz
It is wise to have a stability clause to prevent competing groups from occupying space at the hotel #asae12 LH6

Shane Feldman, CAE ‏@shfz
When using multiple properties make sure you have cancellation clauses that track each other #asae12 LH6

In the force de jour be sure to identify the property owner – 90% of hotels don’t know who owns the property #asae12 LH6

Rick Johnston, CAE ‏@rjohnston
#asae12 LD4 I so wish @PeterDiamandis was one of our full conference keynotes. Everyone should have heard this true game changer.

Rebecca Brandt, CAE ‏@rebecca_brandt
Agreed. Missed opportunity. RT @popsshaffer #asae12 LD4 this guy should be a keynote with a follow up session

Rebecca Brandt, CAE ‏@rebecca_brandt
#asae12 LD4 Going 60 mph down the highway isn’t natural, it’s u merging with technology. -Diamandis What’s the next ‘natural’ expectation?

Rebecca Brandt, CAE ‏@rebecca_brandt
#asae12 LD4 Q and A with Diamandis…let’s talk about Curiosity.

Rebecca Brandt, CAE ‏@rebecca_brandt
#asae12 LD4 News media uses bad news as a drug. Causes a reaction in your brain for high alert. Bad news is nowhere near the reality.

Rebecca Brandt, CAE ‏@rebecca_brandt
#asae12 LD4 Looking at the same data differently will lead to amazingly different results. Diff people = diff results.

Rick Johnston, CAE ‏@rjohnston
#asae12 LD4 How can associations use crowd sourcing to solve big challenges. Perhaps ASAE should fund an X prize.

Chris Shue ‏@Chris_Shue
Peter Diamandis is one of the best speakers I have seen in 14 years of #asae12 ld4

Rebecca Brandt, CAE ‏@rebecca_brandt
#asae12 LD4 The day before something is a breakthrough it’s a crazy idea. -Diamandis

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
Keep ownership of the mentorship program with the association. Don’t pass it off to a sponsor. #asae12 LS2

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 mentoring isn’t a program that has a hard numbers ROI great value add and towards grater good of profession. New DTJ supports

Justin Rudisille ‏@justinrudisille

#asae12 LS2 survey at the end of the mentoring engagement to monitor success.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 be very clear on your mentor criteria so a “rejection” to participate is more of a growth opportunity.

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
Be prepared to intercept bad mentorship experiences and write the “Dear John Letter”. #asae12 LS2

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
Have the mentor and mentee outline thee expectations of each other so they build their own experience. #asae12 LS2

Kathleen Simpson ‏@simpska
RT @andrewbronson: Make the mentor and mentee sign a LOA #asae12 LS2 < great way to clarify expectations for all volunteer activities

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 example was to purchase a mentoring newsletter license.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 research other resources as part of your mentor newsletters. Industry news and industry changes are good – quarterly

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 recruit members who are not the usual suspects for mentoring – diversity is key

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
You don’t necessarily need to have an older person mentor a younger person. Think technology. #asae12 LS2

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
Don’t allow someone to mentor more than one person at a time. #asae12 LS2

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 encourage an open dialogue on expectations – duration of relationship. Serial monogamy is the way to go. Mentees get 1 per

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 use your code of conduct to guide ethics and interaction. Complaints should be linked back to code

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
Make the mentor and mentee sign a letter of agreement so you can document the mentorship and give proper recognition at events. #asae12 LS2

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 need to set limit on the number of mentees a mentor can engage with at a time.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 recognize your mentors and mentees annually: provide incentives and keep your mentors engaged

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 there should be some type of gatekeeping mechanism and training process – webinars are effective no webinar, no go.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 who approves mentors and tells them they are ready to go?

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 do you have minimum criteria: membership, experience, social media criteria, etc.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 create component achievement awards. Provide discount if mentor-mentee attend together to annual mtg – Component awards work

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 be careful of over doing search characteristics

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
Find the mentors before you take the mentorship program public. #asae12 LS2

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 measure mentoring by those that find value – not the percentage of participation

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 make sure to recruit mentors before going live – one example was 50 needed to start

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 use mentoring program to aide in preparation for credenttialing – international members are hungry for education & prof devp

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
You can’t force a mentorship. It needs to be agreed upon peer-to-peer. You just help bridge the connection. #asae12 LS2

Jenifer Leans ‏@JeniBritish
#asae12 LS2 Needs to be peer to peer with promotion of mentor program – staff isn’t as effective in this area

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 Again – don’t try to be a match maker.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 if you can – do ‘t assume the role of matchmaker for mentoring programs. Put your effort into cultivating mbr evangelists

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 need to leverage other staff departments and volunteers

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 require some training and/or evaluation to set expectations and weed out those who’s expectations are misaligned

Missy Lewis, CAE ‏@missyclewis
#asae12 LS2 Mentoring programs: Don’t go overboard in match criteria. Set expectations. Make it structured.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 keep it simple. Most mentors don’t even realize you’ve cast them in the role – not a formal relationship.

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
You need to manage the expectations of your mentorship program. “Everyone wants to be an organ donor, just not right now.” #asae12 LS2

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 needed support – who is your mentor program evangelist. Be sure to manage leadership expectations.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 keep from offering the job between mentors and mentees – this is an added membership benefit – tie into emerging leaders

Andrew Bronson ‏@andrewbronson
In a session on mentoring programs. Mentoring is a great idea, but needs to be put into your organization’s strategy. #asae12 LS2

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LS2 need to incorporate mentoring into the strategies of the organization – begin with the end in mind what do you hope to achieve

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 take a look at Zappos VIP – creates loyalty and frequency.

Matthew Helms ‏@matthewhelms
Flip pricing structure. Offer added benefits for exclusive pricing. Do away with “discount” pricing models. #asae12 LJ3

Linda Owens ‏@spdracrrr
#asae12 LJ3 VIP/Exclusive Pricing Options What are the extra benefits that you can charge a little more for?

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 VIP/ Exclusive Pricing – pay more for higher service level. What are the pain points for your members? Solve for opportunity

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 there is a lot of home work before you offer monthly versus annual

Linda Owens ‏@spdracrrr
#asae12 LJ3 Pilot any pricing model before launching

Matthew Helms ‏@matthewhelms
Should associations offer monthly memberships? Annual membership dues paid monthly? #asae12 LJ3

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 conduct financial modeling, predictive analysis, the pilot the program to test performance.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 monthly vs. annually. More volume – could be worth back end work for significant numbers increase.

Matthew Helms ‏@matthewhelms
Great concept. MT @skneebone: #asae12 LJ3 Urgency Pricing – high value just-in-time learning.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3. Increase the price weekly – Syms pricing model in reverse

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 Urgency Pricing – high value just-in-time learning. Thrifty Thursdays +117% increase for webinars.

skneebone ‏@skneebone
#asae12 LJ3 unique value + bundling: SWA doesn’t nickel & dime created unique value & bundled services. – not always cheaper

Matthew Helms ‏@matthewhelms
Assoc. should promote/articulate outcomes of services when setting a price structures #asae12 LJ3

#asae12 LJ3 pricing sensitivity: is there prestige associated with buying the product?

#asae12 LJ3 pricing sensitivity: does the benefit outweigh the coast? Talk about the outcomes of the benefits.

The Situation Room: The Future of Membership #ASAE12 LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
Mbrshp growth can be a lag indicator of a viable value proposition. #asae12 LO1

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
Associations may need to rework their internal structures to better create #membership value #asae12 #Lo1

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
Association professionals need to think in terms of value rather than benefits of membership #asae12 #Lo1

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
“When you can’t solve the problem, you can connect the people who share the problem” -Jodie Slaughter #asae12 #LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
When you cannot solve the problem for mbrs, you can connect the members who share the problem. #asae12 LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
Do you have anything that only your members can get? #asae12 LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
@anernay Yes. This is a good session- not all “new”- but the conversation is good. #asae12 LO1

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Hearing a lot of crickets in this session. I think everyone has hit a wall… #ASAE12 LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
We build things around our existing architecture. This inhibits us- should think about how to structure to best deliver value #asae12 LO1

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Determine benefit use v. value with more than surveys. Examine usage stats and dats. Collect anecdotal evidence. #asae12 LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
To know what is valuable to mbrs, eval transactional data, listen to mbrs, ask questions and be curious. #asae12 LO1

Zack Wahlquist ‏@zow76
#asae12 LO1 How do you know what your members really value?

Anne Ornelas deLemos ‏@anernay
“@sdoute: #asae12 LO1 change the way we talk about benefits.” Good session?

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
How does the perception of value vary between #membership segments? #asae12 #LO1

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Evaluate what benefits appeal to which members. Not everyone values the same. #asae12 LO1

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
#asae12 LO1 change the way we talk about benefits. Identify their needs that we are meeting- not laundry list of benefits.

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
Tell members more than what’s offered; tell them the value created #asae12 #Lo1

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
What can we do for our members that no one else is providing? #asae12 LO1 stop with the laundry lists.

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Don’t count on your members renewing because it’s “the right thing to do.” Give them value. #asae12 LO1

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
#membership value is more than what you say; it is what you deliver #asae12 #LO1

Zack Wahlquist ‏@zow76
#asae12 LO1 Value proposition = what you say + what you deliver

Stephanie Doute ‏@sdoute
Your value proposition is more than what you say, it’s what you deliver #asae12 LO1

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Biggest concerns for the future of membership? Aging membership/attracting younger members and communicating value. #asae12 LO1

Gabriel Eckert ‏@gabrieleckert
#1 membership concern: Attracting younger generation #asae12 #LO1

Zack Wahlquist ‏@zow76
#asae12 LO1 what will happen to membership in the next five years? Well, isn’t that up to us?

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Membership is NOT DEAD. Trends are showing consistent increases over the last 3 years. #asae12 LO1

AshleyHodakSullivan ‏@AshleyHodak
Interesting. A little under half the room has seen an increase in membership over the past 5 years. #asae12 LO1

iPad does not have a traditional file system. Breathe deep and embrace the cloud horror. Trust me. It’s ok. #asae12 LM9

Show Appreciation to Your Staff Without Spending a Fortune #ASAE12 LW4

Lynn Hoff ‏@lynnhoff17
#asae12 LW4 Company-branded merchandise not well received as employee recognition. Doesn’t show effort.

Lynn Hoff ‏@lynnhoff17
#asae12 LW4 if employee doesn’t like public displays of appreciation, and you drag ’em up anyway, is it about employee or organization?

Lynn Hoff ‏@lynnhoff17
#asae12 LW4 Difference between communicating appreciation to employee and the employee FEELING appreciated.

Lynn Hoff ‏@lynnhoff17
#asae12 LW4 Employee Recognition programs aren’t authentic appreciation. Too generic, group-based, infrequent.

Lynn Hoff ‏@lynnhoff17
#asae12 LW4 report: 65 percent of employees say they’ve received NO recognition over last year –> gotta change that.
