Brief
A quarterly data brief on where non-dues revenue actually comes from, and how the mix shifts with organization size.

The third brief in the State of Associations Quarterly series breaks down the 24 percent median non-dues revenue share reported in State of Associations 2024 into its component sources: event revenue, sponsorship, product and publication sales, and other income. It finds that a single signature annual event, more than any other factor, determines whether an association's non-dues share lands above or below the sector median.
The brief compares organizations with and without a flagship conference or trade show, and looks at how sponsorship revenue concentration — the share of sponsorship dollars coming from an organization's largest sponsor — varies with total non-dues revenue. Finance committees will find a direct planning implication here: a single annual event is the strongest lever over non-dues revenue in this data, but also carries the highest year-to-year volatility of any source measured.
