Why Should SDA help with your next membership drive?
Can you do a membership drive on your own…of course you can; but simply put, we can get you better results and our results speak for themselves.
On this website, you’ll find client listings, campaign results and testimonials. Examine what our clients have to say about SDA, review the results and you’ll see that the SDA system is the way to increase your membership and revenues. We can double, triple or quadruple what you would do on your own.
Member Drive Management
First, you’ll receive your Campaign Manual that contains everything you need to set up a successful campaign. Your guide contains time schedules, sample recruitment emails, sample announcements, step by step instructions and advice on how to coordinate your drive. An SDA professional will be in constant communication with your drive coordinator and chairperson. This system becomes your guide to success and leads you step-by-step through the implementation of the membership drive.
Training For Success
The key to any successful drive is the ability of your volunteers to solicit new members. The SDA system assures their success through a training and motivational approach that is second to none. Our system is based on peer to peer communication. We teach a common sense approach to selling that encourages the sharing of benefits and new ideas with potential new members. We create an atmosphere for your volunteers that make the time they spend as a volunteer a rewarding and fun experience. Our approach not only gets results, but the positive experience strengthens your volunteer base. Your training will be conducted by one of our top training and motivational specialists.
SDA Compensation
At SDA, we are committed to success. We have total confidence that our system will get you the results you need. Therefore, we are compensated ONLY on the results we achieve. There are no set-up fees or hidden costs. We believe in creating a win-win situation for everyone. With the SDA system, we all win.
Once you’ve selected SDA to conduct your membership drive, and we’ve agreed to a specific format, the SDA system shifts into high gear.

“We at the North Shore Chamber of Commerce would like to thank you for a great membership drive. It was a great pleasure to work with you . Your enthusiasm, energy and humor brought an excitement to the volunteers that we would not have gotten by our own means. Your organization and insightful ideas helped this office pull togther a membership drive far greater than our own efforts could have produced.”
I would like to thank you for teaming up with us on the biggest and best membership campaign yet, resulting in over 140 new members and $40,000 raised in just three days! This surpassed the expectations we had for out prospects in this down economy. We have had 12 years of success with you and SDA, and we are proof that your system works.You managed to tweak the system to benefit the needs of our chamber and enabled us to expand our membership base by 140 new members in three short days.Once again, we greatly appreciate the motivation and enthusiasm you brought to the Board of Directors and the volunteers, and we look forward to future success stories with you and SDA.”
“180 [new members] paid over $50,000 in dues! Our average new member in this Campaign paid 125% of the Chamber´s average dues. You helped us grow 18% in three days. By your insistence on the RIGHT “Why Join Now”, emphasizing payment by credit card, 177 of our new members we paid by Monday of the week after, and all 180 were paid within a week of the Campaign, as in $50,000 in the bank in one week!”
