Member segments

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to think of some more ways to segment our membership base for analysis, and I thought it might be a good move to reach out to like-minded people for ideas.  I work with the basic members (<= $99/year) of our museum, generally speaking these are benefits driven members.  So far I have focused on the behavior of our different basic membership levels.  I’ve been looking at the overall renewal behavior of our different levels; for a given expiration date, how many within a selected membership level renew before their membership expires, do they wait, how long do they wait, are there differences in the behavior from membership level to membership level?  Are there any patterns?  I’ve also looked at the number of perfs; how different are the number of perfs for a household member that doesn’t rejoin versus a household member that renews before their expiration date, does there appear to be a tipping point?  I plan on looking more closely at the “what happened next” groups.  Who are the people who never rejoined?  What is their visit history like?  Things like that. 

Of all the things I’ve looked at so far it feels as though I’m not looking at something I should be, that I’m missing something obvious.  Any ideas out there? 

Thanks!

Jenny O’Neill-Englund

  • Thanks Tom,

    Those are great suggestions!  We're considering the Interests feature as another avenue to explore.  Have you had experience with those (good, bad, or otherwise)?

  • I'm out of the office this week. So, I do not have all of the details in front of me at the moment.

    We have used tkt interests. However, the weighting / ranking did not turn out so well and we have not really gone back to retool.

    The interesting thing is it does show the discrepancy between what patrons say they are interested in and what they actually buy... That said, Ticket history also tells what patron actually buy. Interests work with the website and can be self selected by customers this is helpful.
