A Tiered Dues Approach to Membership


The Shakopee Chamber’s Focus and Goals
• Increased return on investment for members

• Quality over quantity

• Products and services that focus on member needs

• Elimination of stale and irrelevant programs and services

Background
Previously, membership dues have been based on employee counts rather than employee engagement/involvement in the Chamber. Businesses invest because it benefits their bottom line; they want to receive value for their investment. Previous membership commonly was based on community loyalty regardless of return on investment, meaning members were joining the chamber because they felt it was “the right thing to do,” not because they necessarily saw the benefits they could get from it.


What Is Bundle-Up!™

• Bundle-Up!™ is a tiered dues system of membership

• Bundle-Up!™ is a type of membership where you are investing in pre-packaged programs and services that meet your specific company needs

• Bundle-Up!™ is a “consultative” type of membership where you are advised which programs and services will be most fitting for your company needs and interests


Why YOU Should Bundle-Up!™

Bundle-Up!™ will simplify your membership in many ways:

• You are pre-registered for events (included in your package)

• Engagement opportunities (committees, task forces, events, networking, sponsorships)

• Planning for budget–know your total investment upfront


Bundle-Up!™ allows you to see what you are investing in and what you will be receiving in return for your investment. You are actually getting something in return for what you put in.
