During my 7 year tenure at NTEN, I''ve had the pleasure of looking at a lot of data, and figuring out ways to use that data in strategic ways to drive the organization and our community forward. Specifically, members who had registered for at least one NTEN event over the course of the year were 37% more likely to renew.

Look at your registration form and start with the basics. Once you know who's participated before, you can ask those participants to "raise the bar this year", either by forming teams, growing their teams, or increasing their fundraising goals!

I was disappointed when it was announced that the NTEN NTC would be in San Francisco this year. And then my friends at Convio got together with the good folks at NTEN and did something wonderful. The NTC is the nonprofit technology conference. I loved it last year in New Orleans. Less focus on consultants and high-budget solutions.
