Cohousing-L Mailing List: Join CohoUS for our 2023 Partner Orientation

[Carolyn Pruitt (carolyn]

Greetings Cohousers,

My name is Carolyn Pruitt, Operations Manager with CohoUS. We’re looking 
forward to leading a Partner Orientation on Wednesday March 15 from 12-1pm PT 
(1-2pm MT, 2-3pm CT, 3-4pm ET) and we hope you will join us!

This orientation is open to both seasoned and new partners, as well as people 
who are still considering if partnership is right for them. Every 2023 
community partner should plan to have at least one representative present, and 
can include additional members as well. We will also have a recording available 
for those who can't join live.

This one-hour orientation will include:
•              Networking with other cohousers from around the country
•              An overview of all of the benefits of partnership
•              Demonstrations for how to use different parts of the website
•              Q&A Discussion exploring Suggestions and Upcoming Improvements

Whether you want to make more of the partnership you already have, or need a 
little more information to make your decision, this event will cover all of the 
basics and will be a great way to connect more with other partners from around 
the country.

What are partnerships?

CohoUS has built a partnership program over the past few years supporting 
Individual Partners, Community Partners, Community Launch Partners and 
Professional Partners to join our efforts and receive benefits including:

•              Free networking and educational programs on Zoom throughout the 
year
•              Access to over 200 "on-demand" recordings from past programs
•              Discounts on Trainings, Merchandise and In-person events
•              Highlighted directory listing on our website that gets 70k 
visits/month
•              Classified and ENews Listings Advertising reaching a targeted 
list of 6k people
•              Additional Social Media, Blog and Speaking Opportunities + more

Individual partners pay $150/year to get access to over $1k worth of live and 
on-demand programs. Community, Launch and Professional partners pay a group 
rate to provide this same access to everyone in their community for even less 
in addition to advertising worth up to $900.

Partnership makes it more affordable to receive all of these benefits at the 
same time as providing a foundation of support for the work the Association is 
doing as the national non-profit supporting cohousing in the US. Learn more 
about partnership on our website (https://www.cohousing.org/partner-programs/).


Best,
