Description

Brief Excerpt from Industry Overview Chapter:

Organizations in this industry promote the business, professional, and political interests of their members. Major organizations include the AARP, the American Medical Association, the National Education Association, and the National Rifle Association, all based in the US, along with the International Chamber of Commerce (France) and the International Bar Association (the UK).

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Demand is driven by business and political activity. The profitability of individual organizations depends on membership dues and effective marketing. Large organizations have advantages in diverse membership. Small organizations can compete effectively by serving niche industries and local markets. The US industry is highly fragmented: the top 50 organizations account for less than 20% of revenue.

PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY

Major sources of revenue include membership dues, convention and seminar fees, contributions, and publications. Revenues may also come from testing and examination services. An organization may offer members certification to ensure proper qualifications or to designate level of expertise. Other non-dues related revenues may include sales of services and merchandise. For example, AAA offers roadside assistance and maps.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
