MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE

Why join the membership committee?

The focus of the membership committee is two-fold; member care and recruitment. Our volunteers focus on connecting with our current members to ensure they are maximizing their membership dollars and achieving an ROTI; return on time invested. In addition to these outreach and retention efforts our volunteers are actively encouraging local meeting and event industry professionals and partners to join MPI New England so as to increase the professional, education and business opportunities available to all of our members. The membership committee is in charge of disseminating incentive information from global, recognizing and rewarding active members for their contributions and creating meaningful touch points for all members, new and veteran alike, through their life cycle with  the chapter. Being involved on a committee is the best way to get to know fellow members and the first step in maximizing the value of your membership. We are here to find you the right place to utilize your time and talents so you can begin to reap the benefits of your involvement.
