TIPS 2022 for Partner Societies

Thriving genealogical societies have passionate members who are excited about researching their ancestry and can’t wait to share how they found their latest discovery. The 2022 TxSGS Family History Conference is the perfect opportunity for injecting enthusiasm into local society members, giving them the tools they need to make breakthroughs.

This year’s conference features more than 20 speakers presenting 42-plus topics starting with TxSGS Live! on November 4-5; all sessions are recorded and accessible on-demand through February 6, 2023. Additional conference details can be found at https://www.txsgs.org/2022-txsgs-family-history-conference/.

You’re Invited …

TxSGS invites your society to participate in TIPS (TxSGS Impacting Partner Societies), a Partner Society fundraiser through the 2022 TxSGS Family History Conference. Not only will you be encouraging your members to expand their research horizons but also you will be raising funds for your society.

About the TIPS Program

Here’s how TIPS works:

• Sign up with the TIPS program, and you’ll receive a unique society code to be used by individuals during registration.
• Promote the conference and your code to your members, associates, and friends.
• TxSGS will donate $10 to your society for each person that registers for the conference with your code between August 1 and September 30.
• Plus, societies who register for the TIPS program are eligible for a special TIPS rate to be an Exhibitor in the TxSGS Conference Virtual Expo Hall.

This offer is applicable to registrations at the Standard or All-in-One package levels. It does not include the Lite package level.

Getting the Word Out

You can publicize your society code any way you normally publicize events: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, email, on your website, in your newsletter. There’s no need to keep your code private. After all, the more people that see your code and register for the conference, the better!

To help you publicize the conference, TxSGS is posting images, a flyer, newsletter articles, and more for you to download at the TxSGS Media Resources page at https://www.txsgs.org/media-resources/. Check back at this site often – we’ll be adding more items over the next few weeks.

Registering for the TIPS Program

How does your society sign up for the program? The president of your society or their designee can register for TIPS here.  By signing up for the program, your society is agreeing to promote the conference to your members. Don’t wait to get the word out – other societies will be promoting their code, too.
