A TOOL TO INTRODUCE NEW MEMBERS TO YOUR INFO HUB

Your member center (aka the Info Hub) is the online password-protected community for your members. It’s included with every GrowthZone subscription.

 

Use the Info Hub overview sheet to show your newest members the benefits of using your member center to:

· Pay invoices

· Post and view jobs, news, and hot deals

· Access your resource library

· Register and pay for events

· Update profile information…and more!

 

Include it in their new member welcome packet, use it for an email campaign, or hand it out at your next event.
