The Un-Corporate Email: Rewriting Association Comms

Your members see your email in their inbox and their thumb hovers over the delete button. They already know what it is.

For years, associations have treated their members’ inboxes like a free billboard. We have trained them, message by message, to believe our communications are low-value and self-serving. We send event promotions, membership renewal demands, and newsletters packed with every department’s agenda. The result is a deep and rational email fatigue.
