Members - Our most precious resource
Membership Development is about recruiting new members, retaining existing
members, encouraging new clubs and supporting our existing members and
clubs with ideas and resources to help them. In these pages you will find
material to help you.

Perhaps the most important feature of this site is the Bulletin
Board. In the Membership Management Forum there is the opportunity
for people involved in recruitment and retention to exchange information
on best practice and any initiatives undertaken (historic information
is also of value). We want to hear about what did and didn't work
well; hopefully we can all help each other to achieve growth in
membership over the next few years.

Recruitment is the first step in building membership.
There are any number of ideas and you will find some of them here. |

Retention is, arguably, the most important feature
of any good membership program. What's the point of recruiting new
members if you can't keep the ones you've got? Club organistion, the
songs you sing, rehearsal programming, socal activities: all play
a part. You'll find lots of ideas here.
BABS has published a document called Getting It Right - Managing The Club.
It contains a huge amount of useful information including job descriptions, the BABS registration process, a model constitution and a club
'operating manual' with lots of useful day to day tips for management and music teams. |
