This week's guest, Jim Catts, explores how technology has presented both challenges and opportunities for association marketers. Jim is a career technologist who's currently co-funder and CTO of Rhythm Software. He's been working with associations to smartly apply technology to the work they do for around 20 years.

In the episode, we cover:

  • How we’ve moved beyond running member experiences manually and physically
  • The costs and lost opportunities of doing so 
  • The paradigm shifts of email and dynamic web 
  • How tech allows for personalized, on demand member content
  • How associations are like Netflix (hint: is your association a content or technology company?)
  • How associations are NOT like Amazon (hint: are your member driven by search?)
  • How the pandemic changed member experience expectations
  • How soon VR and AR will or won't become part of the member experience
  • What’s the right way for associations to start using machine learning and AI?
  • How newer generations are changing the member experience
  • The tactical steps to take with your technology right now
