Expert Association Consulting for Growth-Minded Organizations

About Sequence Consulting

Built for Associations. Focused on Growth.

Sequence Consulting is a strategy firm built exclusively for associations. Since 2001, we’ve helped leading professional and trade organizations grow membership, revenue, and impact—and stay strong through change.

Our work combines clear thinking, real data, and deep association experience. We help you clarify direction, align your team, and achieve results that last.

Exclusively For Associations

The Sequence Difference

Focused on What Matters Most

We help associations sharpen their value, diversify revenue, and turn insight into action. Every engagement is grounded in data—not guesswork—and built around your goals.

Outside Perspective, Inside Understanding

You can’t read the label when you’re sitting in the jar. We bring an outside view grounded in decades of association experience—clear, practical strategies that actually work.

A True Partner in Growth

We don’t hand over reports and walk away. We work alongside your team to build focus, alignment, and momentum—so your growth keeps going long after the project ends.

It’s been a dramatic impact. Transformative. Our rate of growth last year tripled. We could never have done it without Sequence.”

Our Association Clients

Who We Work With

We partner with professional and trade associations of every size, from national societies to global organizations.

What unites them isn’t size or sector, but mindset: the drive to grow, adapt, and deliver more value to their members.

For over 25 years, we’ve helped growth-minded associations expand membership, strengthen engagement, and create sustainable revenue—building organizations ready to thrive today and tomorrow.

The AMA achieved transformational growth, tripling its rate of growth after partnering with us. See the data-driven "Digital Reboot" strategy that revitalized their membership program.
