Anyone who's attended an Association Media & Publishing Annual Meeting will tell you it's one of the most inspiring and innovating experiences in association media. It's the only conference designed for the association content creators, producers, designers, and revenue generators. But chances are, your organization isn't looking to spendthe travel budget to "change your life.” The organization is more interested in changing the bottom line, so that's how you have to frame your discussion—the tangible benefits that will make you more productive, more efficient, more effective as a staff member of your organization. Think saving or making money—and you're more likely to get it approved.
