I’m a marketing junkie. And I’m a total nerd for association work. I’m also a bit of a techie. That’s quite a combo, right? Perfect for a SocialFish like me. The Association Marketing Springboard started in 2007 as a place for me to record my ideas and grow professionally. Over time, I realized that the biggest marketing opportunities out there are being enabled by technology…and most organizations are missing out! Today, the Springboard is a place for me to pass along the power of marketing techniques that integrate social technologies...and connect with some amazing people along the way.

Your members draw the line on social media.

Matt Baehr, Bob Wolfe and Bruce Hammond have all written insightful posts about social media overload. I feel their pain. It's hard work keeping up with it all. But I'm sure all four of us would agree--don't let a little case of social media burn out keep you from testing the waters.

With so many free tools out there, the cost of failure is very small and the potential benefits are huge. Experimenting is a good thing. Don't think too hard about it. Try stuff. Lots of stuff. See what happens. Maybe nothing, maybe something. Either way, you're learning.

At the end of the day, let your members be the ones drawing the lines on social media. They'll vote with their participation. Your job is to give them something worthy of a YES vote.
