An
association management company is a firm of skilled professionals whose goal
is to provide management expertise and specialized administrative services
to trade associations and professional societies in an efficient,
cost-effective manner.
As more and more volunteer organizations vie for less and less available
volunteer time, the need for effective professional management becomes
increasingly critical.
Traditional answers, maintaining full-time staff and office facilities or
operating with volunteers who often lack time, experience, and expertise in
key areas result in a major investment in overhead and inefficiencies as
long-term goals get lost in day-to-day details. An alternative concept of
association management has existed for over 100 years and remains today an
effective solution to the management problem, offering advantages that more
and more associations are discovering... the association management company.
Experienced in
every aspect of operating a not-for-profit organization, EMA is able to
offer a full range of services that can be tailored to each association's
individual needs.
By choosing to employ the services of EMA,
association leadership makes all the decisions regarding goals and
objectives and EMA does the work. We work with boards and committee members
to enable them to contribute as much as they can without sacrificing their
jobs or their families.
Out of some 13,000 associations in the United
States, over 25% use the services of a professional management company.
