What Marketing Club Mittelhessen e.V. does

Marketing Club Mittelhessen e.V. is a registered non-profit professional association (eingetragener Verein) based in Braunfels, Hessen, Germany, serving marketing professionals in the Mittelhessen (Central Hesse) region. The organization operates a membership-based model with over 150 members drawn from regional companies across diverse industries including publishing/printing, digital services, industrial computing, and industrial fastening. Its core service offering consists of monthly on-site events (Vor-Ort-Veranstaltungen) featuring company visits and expert presentations, supplemented by a digital lunch-time event series (BVMC HIGH NOON), member-led Best Practice Sessions, and access to the Senior Marketing Professional (SMP) certification program.

The club is affiliated with the Bundesverband Marketing Clubs e.V. (BVMC), the national umbrella organization, and through BVMC with the European Marketing Confederation (EMC). This affiliation provides access to the SMP certification framework, which is internationally recognized at Bachelor level. Personal memberships are portable across all German Marketing Clubs, adding value beyond the regional offering. The club is staffed by a small team led by Club Secretary Sabrina Agel and Events Coordinator Sylvia Völk, with a volunteer board (Vorstand) governing the organization.

Revenue is generated primarily through annual membership dues structured across multiple tiers: personal memberships range from €75/year (students/apprentices) to €290/year (standard), while corporate memberships range from €450/year (1 contact) to €2,600/year (7 contacts), each with a €100 joining fee. Secondary revenue comes from guest fees of approximately €30 per event for non-member attendees. The organization is membership-governed through a General Assembly (Mitgliederversammlung) with no external ownership, parent company, or institutional investors. As a non-profit association, financial information is not publicly disclosed.
