Prospective members may not be rejecting your association, they may simply not know you exist, understand what you do, or see how your value applies to them yet.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how associations can close the awareness gap and make it easier for future members to find, understand, and connect with their organisation.

Join Kelly Whelan from Higher Logic and Olena Lima CAE from MemberBoat for a practical conversation on improving discoverability, communicating relevance earlier in the member journey, and engaging the next generation of members.

Member engagement is top of mind for every association executive. We all want active, involved members who show up, contribute, and feel connected to the organisation, not members who quietly lurk on the sidelines or, worse, stop opening emails altogether.

Join Olena Lima on this Answers for Associations webinar session as she explores the long-term foundations of engagement, including the patterns, behaviours, and engagement rhythms that influence retention and long-term loyalty well before members make renewal decisions.

You'll walk away able to:

βœ… Design engagement rhythms that sustain member involvement year-round
βœ… Identify the loyalty triggers that matter most for retention
βœ… Build a system that consistently strengthens connection
βœ… Understand the early signs of disengagement and how to intervene
βœ… Create retention pathways that actually influence renewal decisions

Have you ever heard a member say "I just didn't see the value" or "I didn't have time to use the benefits"?

Those words sting a little, and they're worth paying attention to.

Olena Lima is diving straight into that gap at the upcoming YM3 webinar, Beyond Benefits: Building a Member Experience That Actually Lands.

It's an honest conversation about why even committed members quietly drift, and what associations can do differently to make membership feel relevant, timely and personal enough to act on.

Olena will be exploring how shifting from a services mindset to a value-led, personalised model changes how members engage, connect and stay. Think early warning signals, personalised journeys, and practical frameworks you can take straight back to your team.

Answers for Associations' Associations Unleashed is next week and we are so ready! πŸ™Œ

Olena Lima is joining the speaker lineup on 26-27 May in Brighton-Le-Sands, Sydney, sharing what three years of hands-on digital evolution projects with more than 20 associations has taught her about what it really takes to get a digital roadmap off the ground.

Beyond the session, Olena and Cristiano are genuinely looking forward to connecting with the community. These are the conversations we love most.

Will we see you there? πŸŽ‰

Associations Unleashed is fast approaching and we couldn't be more excited! πŸŽ‰

Olena Lima, Founder and Principal Consultant at MemberBoat, is joining the lineup at Associations Unleashed on 26-27 May 2026 at Brighton Hotel Sydney, and her session is one worth showing up for.

Platform, Process, People: The Digital Roadmap draws on three years of hands-on digital evolution projects with more than 20 associations. She'll be getting into the governance and project management frameworks, and being honest about what tends to derail even the well-funded, well-intentioned projects. Because the gap between a solid digital roadmap and a successful rollout isn't usually the technology itself.

If you haven't locked in your spot yet, now's the time. Associations Unleashed isn't your typical association event. Fewer keynotes, more real conversation, and a room full of people who understand the weight of the work you do.

Spots are limited, so grab yours before they're gone.

Associations don't move forward by being polite with each other. πŸ’‘

Associations Unleashed is creating space for the kind of honest conversations our sector really needs. What's working, what's not, and what needs to change if associations want to remain relevant and valuable.

We are genuinely looking forward to being part of a room that can handle that level of honesty.
