Let’s face it—today’s members are more digitally savvy and demanding than ever before. They want seamless, personalized experiences across every interaction with your association. But with limited time, resources, and staff capacity, how can associations deliver at scale?
The answer is AI—and it’s more accessible than you think.
We’re not talking about replacing your team with machines. We’re talking about leveraging artificial intelligence to work with your staff—streamlining operations, enhancing member engagement, and driving retention through smarter, faster, and more proactive experiences.
Let’s explore how associations like yours are already using AI to future-proof their member engagement strategy—and how you can do the same.
Why More Associations Are Embracing AI Technology
Whether you’re using Salesforce or planning to implement it, adding artificial intelligence into the mix can supercharge your member portal and free up your team. Here’s how:
Predict What Members Want—Before They Ask
AI-driven predictive analytics can help you anticipate member behavior based on past actions. Want to increase renewals or event participation? Use AI insights to suggest relevant next steps at exactly the right moment—no guesswork needed.
Deliver 24/7 Support Without Growing Your Team
AI-powered chatbots and case deflection tools on your Salesforce Experience Cloud site can handle common member questions round-the-clock. Members get fast, accurate answers—and your staff avoids being bogged down by routine queries.
Make Your Content Work Harder
If your portal has a vast knowledge base or resource library, AI can personalize the experience by recommending the most relevant content to each user. Plus, tools like content summarization help members find the information they need, faster.
Identify At-Risk Members Early
AI can spot patterns in engagement and flag members who may be likely to lapse. That gives you time to step in with personalized outreach, offers, or incentives to re-engage them—before it’s too late.
