Communications: Ensuring Trusted & Timely Information for Your Members During The Pandemic 

With the daily updating on the spread and fight against COVID-19, the CHMS Communication & Marketing Team and Director of Government Affairs are working with our Association Management Team in reviewing, compiling and sharing of important updates and resources for client needs. We are creating social media and website content for you—and making sure it is posted across all your communication platforms.

When CHMS implemented its virtual service, we posted notices on client-association websites, informing members that the association office was now functioning remotely and there for the needs of members:

Social Media Posts – Below please find examples of useful posts provided to our client-associations in order to their members handle COVID-19:

Social Media Tips

  • During this sensitive time, being thoughtful and transparent is the best thing to do.
  • Post content relating to how COVID-19 is affecting your industry.  Your followers are more apt to engage when they can relate to the content.
  • Be sensitive of those that may be struggling financially during this time.
  • People have down time right now and want to be learning.  Promote webinars and continuing education, teach them about your organization’s history, your members, etc.
