Engaging the Youth is Critical to Keeping Your Organization Alive



It’s obvious why you need to attract younger people to your organization. The older generation will soon disappear and you will need the younger generation to carry on, so it is not so much a question of why but how to attract them.

About 75% of 12- 17 year olds now own a mobile phone and some 66% of adults 18-29 own a smartphone so a mobile App is get great way to get those lines of communication open and keep the conversation going.

An App can make it easier for you to engage younger people, collect data, and gain feedback.

Engage young people by rewarding them for practical, real life actions that support the development of your organization. Connect them with your social pages so they can engage and be engaged in an environment which they are familiar with. It is important to challenge young people with your engagement not just tell them to do this, do that.

The ability to survey and pose questions to your organization’s younger audience through an App can allow your organization to acquire information more quickly to better serve, support, and engage them.

Feedback is always important because this is where you learn if your engagement is working.
An app brings all these unique opportunities of engagement together in one easy to manage place.

Don’t let your organization disappear, take control of its future and engage it.
