Member Base Leverage With nearly 5,000 members operating over 12,000 stores across Michigan, the Michigan Retailers Association represents a significant network of retail businesses. This presents an opportunity to offer targeted marketing, membership management solutions, and retail technology services to a broad and engaged retailer community.

Digital Engagement Potential The association’s use of diverse tech tools including Google Ads, Bootstrap, and content delivery networks indicates openness to digital solutions. Sales teams can explore opportunities to enhance their online advertising, web development, and digital marketing offerings tailored to retail needs.

Regulatory and Advocacy Support Recent hires in government affairs and communications suggest the association actively advocates for retailer interests and regulatory changes. This opens avenues for legal, compliance, and advocacy services to support the organization’s efforts in shaping policies affecting retail operations.

Partnership and Collaboration Recent collaborations with organizations like Meijer, Michigan Department of Agriculture, and Food Industry partners highlight the association’s focus on community outreach and joint initiatives. Opportunities exist to provide event management, partnership solutions, or community engagement platforms that facilitate such collaborations.

Revenue and Growth Scope Although the association’s revenue ranges up to $10 million, its involvement in advocacy, marketing, and digital outreach indicates potential for scalable services in digital media, data analytics, and retail technology to support future growth and member engagement efforts.
