Envisioning New Value For TMSA - and then Making It Reality

The Transportation Marketing & Sales Association was founded in 1924 as an association that served professional communicators in the U.S. rail industry. Fast forward to the late 1990s and the North American transportation industry has become more diversified in all modes (truck, train, ship, plane), was evolving into an industry relying heavily on technology, and had dramatically changed due to customer demands and regulatory requirements. 

TMSA needed to transition to this new dynamic environment and turned to MindShare Strategies to make it all happen. 

In 1997, MindShare became the official association management firm for TMSA and developed and deployed a comprehensive strategy to bring new value to members through a modernized website; more regular member communications that provided valuable insights, practical advice and best practices; a revamped awards program that recognized best practices in marketing, communications and sales; and a new business model for its annual conference that provided a more robust forum for useful education, knowledge-sharing and networking. Fast forward more than 20 years later and, based upon this new business foundation laid, TMSA is a growing association with hundreds of active members, an engaged leadership structure, and new member value and programs.
