2013 Economic impact on associations
Fundamentals for the Future
March, 2013
Dear Colleagues:
McKinley’s 2013 Economic Impact on Associations (EIA) Study marks the sixth installment in a series that examines the impact of shifting economic conditions on our sector. The report provides insight into key benchmarks of association success, measures the reality of the past year and the outlook for the coming one, and provides data that validates how challenges and opportunities can differ dramatically from one member sector to another.
This year, as economic conditions improve and optimism rebounds, the emerging theme is stability. Associations are beginning to redirect their attention away from austere, short-term solutions like hiring freezes and budget cutbacks to sustained efforts that require resources but promise deeper return-on-investment. Similarly, the EIA Study has begun to look beyond the coping practices of associations to reveal ways in which the community is working in smarter, more streamlined and more relevant ways for their members.
We appreciate the time invested in this project by each of the 215 association executives who responded to the survey, and we look forward to continuing to deliver meaningful studies that help organizations understand the larger environments in which they—and their members—are operating. If you would like to discuss the data in more depth or arrange for a presentation for your staff or Board, please be in touch.
Best wishes for continued optimism and recovery.

2013 Economic Impact on Associations | Fundamentals for the Future
Introduction Survey Methods
The EIA series has provided an interesting view of the association landscape throughout the ever-changing economic conditions of the past five years. The data has shown the resilience of associations during this tumultuous time period—from the initial, drastic measures to preserve core infrastructure to the first signs of recovery as associations began to reinvest in critical initiatives. This year, the data points to an increased sense of stability in the association world. Association executives seem more confident with the economic conditions of the coming year and are continuing to rebuild.
So what has changed for associations? Among the key findings from this year’s study:
• After many years of unpredictable economic impact, association executives’ expectations towards the performance of the economy are in-line with actual economic conditions.
• Despite the harsh economic conditions of the last five years, associations in nearly every industry sector reported higher membership trends. Even sectors that were deeply impacted by the recession (such as professional services) appear to be gaining stability.
• Overall, associations are not relying on cost-saving strategies but are looking to the future with optimism, as demonstrated by the increased program expansion and lack of budget cuts reported.
• Membership continues to be an area of focus for associations. While recruitment and retention still remain the top priorities, associations are intensifying their focus on member engagement and diversity.
• Associations are willing and likely to alter their membership models in order to achieve organizational goals.
McKinley developed and deployed an online survey to association executives on January 14, 2013 to collect key data around the economy and its impact on associations. The survey remained open until January 28, 2013 and resulted in 215 responses representing a broad spectrum of the association community. If you wish to participate in future benchmarking studies or are interested in a tailored presentation of the EIA results to your senior staff or Board of Directors, please contact Samantha Dina at [email protected].

Key Finding #1
Respondents’ expectations towards the performance of the economy were in-line with actual economic conditions.The majority of respondents (57%) indicated the impact from 2012 economic conditions were in-line with what they had anticipated for their associations. This represents a 13 percentage point increase over those who said the same the previous year. This finding could point to greater stability and certainty when it comes to the impact of economic conditions on associations. It may also be an encouragement to many association executives who are experiencing a favorable economic impact and may be more comfortable in their ability to anticipate and plan for the impact of external economic factors on their organizations.

Key Finding #2
Most respondents are optimistic looking towards 2013.Optimism abounds among nearly all participants in the study. Compared to last year’s study, the same number of respondents, around nine-in-ten, indicated they are optimistic about the coming year. Further, slightly more respondents described feeling “very optimistic” about the coming year than did previously (22% to 17%, respectively).
Overall, the level of optimism toward the future has been consistent over the past year. Again, this may be an indicator of consistent patterns of behavior as association executives have not altered their outlook over the past 12 months.

Key Finding #3
Although the long-term economic impact of the recession is evident in membership trends, there was a slight shift toward positive growth in 2012. When asked about membership trends over the past five years, 39% indicated experiencing growth, compared to only 34% who said the same in 2012. Although this is still smaller than the 44% that indicated growth in years 2011 and 2010, it is important to note those previous studies captured growth rates in years before the onset of the recession. Importantly, if economic growth continues, five-year membership trends should continue to rise and surpass all previous years reported in the study.

Table 5 depicts the net membership growth reported in each study. The net membership growth was calculated to represent the difference between the percentage of respondents who reported a higher membership trend over a five-year period and the percentage of respondents who reported a lower membership trend over the same five-year period.
Net Membership Growth =
(% Reporting Higher Membership Trend) – (% Reporting Lower Membership Trend)
The net membership growth rates of each EIA study correspond closely with the annual GDPs of the five-year period. The highest net growth (16%) was reported in 2010, which captured two years of steep positive GDP growth, compared to this year’s 14% net membership growth, which captured membership trends during a three-year span of positive GDP growth since the 2007 recession.

As might be expected, there are important differences in the five-year annualized trends reported by respondents coming from different fields. For example, participants that represent healthcare or education/humanities organizations reported higher than average membership trends over the past five years, while those that focus on professional services reported primarily flat membership trends.
Although the net membership trends have varied greatly by field over the past four years, the net membership trends remained stable or increased this year. It is interesting to note the net membership trends for the 2013 study appear to be very similar to those reported in the 2010 study, which captured pre-recession data.
Note: Only those segments with at least 20 respondents were included in the analysis.

Key Finding #4
Compared to previous years, concern across major business lines has decreased, albeit very slightly. Membership recruitment and retention continue to be the top two areas of concern for the majority of respondents. Respondents were asked to share their levels of concern across core business lines. Concern across almost all core association business lines continues to lessen, although decreases are minimal and at virtually the same levels as at the start of 2012, demonstrating a trend of stability.
For every business line, concern was either equal or slightly below the level of concern reported last year except in the case of advertising. Last year, advertising showed one of the most significant drops, whereas this year the concern actually increased by 5%. Although this may indicate a slight decrease in optimism felt toward private sector relationships, it is important to note that concern around sponsorships fell slightly.
On the other side of the engagement spectrum is membership, which, for many associations, represents the most fundamental reason for existence. Throughout the survey, respondents indicated member recruitment and retention as primary challenges and priorities for their associations. Although these areas have shown significant decreases in concern over the past five years, they continue to be the top two areas of concern for the majority of associations.

Key Finding #5
Associations are shifting from reduction to expansion. Most cost-savings activities are less wide-spread than in previous years. The most dramatic changes include decreases in reduction of programs and services and budget cuts; both down about 5% compared to previous years.
More than six-in-ten respondents (61%) reported that their associations are currently expanding or planning to expand their programs and services this year. The overwhelming shift toward program expansion when compared with the low occurrences of budget cuts and reduction of programs (13%) demonstrates the expected growth and optimism associations feel going into 2013.

Key Finding #6
The shift from acquisition and retention to member engagement strategies continues to occur. Focus is continuing to shift from member acquisition and retention to increased member engagement strategies. This shift in priorities was first noted in last year’s study and the trend remains evident this year with slight decreases seen in both new member acquisition and member retention. The commitment to member engagement and composition is also demonstrated through the growing focus on increasing participation among younger members and diversifying membership. Increasing participation and engagement among younger members has become increasingly important for associations over the past five years, and was the only area of focus to reach its peak in this year’s study.

Key Finding #7
Associations are willing and likely to alter membership structure and benefits in order to meet goals. New to the EIA study, respondents were asked whether or not their association has made, or has considered making, changes to its membership structure. Seven-in-ten respondents (70%) reported they had considered or actually had made significant changes to their membership structure and benefits package in 2012. Interestingly, only 28% of association executives had not at least considered making changes to membership structure and benefits.
The most popular changes to membership structure are through the creation of new membership categories (25%) and the addition of new member benefits (21%); once again demonstrating the increased focus on member retention and diversification. Additional structural changes mentioned were dues restructuring, offering a la carte or online-only membership plans, and creating group or organizational memberships.
The willingness to alter member packages indicates that the membership model is a powerful tool for association managers to both generate revenues and achieve other association goals.

Key Finding #8
While not growing at the same rate as seen in the 2012 study, membership retention rates are still strong and appear to be stablizing. More than four-in-ten respondents in both the 2013 and 2012 studies experienced a member retention rate of 90% or higher for the preceding year (43% and 42%, respectively). This year signifies the highest percentage of participants who achieved a retention rate of more than 90%; however, there was a 6% decline in associations that experienced a retention rate of more than 80% compared to last year’s study (79% and 85%, respectively).
Although fewer respondents indicated their retention rate had increased over the past 12 months compared to previous year’s studies, almost half of the respondents reported stable retention rates. Once again, the consistency in retention rates is pointing toward renewed stability.

2013 Economic Impact on Associations | Fundamentals for the Future
Key Finding #10
The decision to offer members content at no additional cost greatly depends on the content vehicle, and its importance in providing membership value. This year, the EIA study captured information to compare benefits that are included with the price of membership versus those that are purchased separately. As the EIA trending surveys illustrate, associations regularly look to evaluate their membership model and understand the value they provide to members. However, association members have changing expectations of value as recent poor economic times have focused members on return-on-investment and as new forms of competition have arisen from multiple sectors.
For example, the internet has exponentially increased the availability of free resources and information, changing the landscape of many industries, including associations. In order to stay competitive, associations must provide value to members through free access to information content, while still ensuring some knowledge and information products are distributed à la carte.
More than eight-in-ten respondents (85%) indicated they offer free content in the form of news, information, and trends to members. This was the most popular form of content to offer free of cost—likely because of the essential value it provides for members, and the availability of similarly positioned information elsewhere on the internet.
Additionally, the majority of respondents reported they offer members free content in the form of access to standards and guidelines (69%), online journals (75%) and magazines (82%). These resources provide members valuable information and are core benefits of membership.
There were some resources that the majority of associations indicated are provided to members, at a cost. For example, few respondents reported offering free content in the form of webinars (34%), recorded meeting content (27%), live streaming content (25%) or online courses (12%). Although these features are important to offer, they may not compose the crux of membership benefits, but are instead a valued add-on. In addition, the time spent facilitating and monitoring an online course or webinar can translate into an additional cost for the sponsoring association, often distributed to the participating members while shielding those costs from members that might not find equivalent value in them.
