A more scalable approach to membership growth.
Membership growth can slow down when recruitment and retention efforts rely too heavily on constant manual effort or short-term campaigns.
When the National Association for Catering and Events (NACE) partnered with Bostrom, the goal wasn’t just improving results, it was creating a more efficient, repeatable approach their team could sustain long term.
Together, we focused on building a stronger member growth strategy through:
- More targeted audience segmentation
- Clearer messaging throughout the campaign lifecycle
- A more intentional and structured member journey
- Processes designed to support long-term scalability
The outcome was more than improved campaign performance, it was a smarter, more sustainable model for membership growth.
Strong membership programs don’t rely on constant reinvention. They’re built with the structure, strategy, and consistency needed to perform over time.

Reimagining sponsorships for long-term growth.
Many associations know sponsorship revenue has growth potential — but outdated models and limited internal capacity can make it difficult to evolve beyond transactional opportunities.
When the Association of College and University Auditors (ACUA) wanted to strengthen and scale their sponsorship program, Bostrom helped them rethink their approach around long-term value, strategic partnerships, and sustainable growth.
The result?
ACUA doubled sponsorship revenue without adding additional strain to their internal team.
What helped drive results:
- Shifting from transactional sponsorships to strategic partnerships
- Aligning sponsorship opportunities with partner priorities
- Creating a scalable structure built for long-term growth
- Developing a stronger overall value proposition
Growth doesn’t always require more effort. Often, it starts with a stronger model and the right strategic support behind it.
