Cooperatives face difficult economic and legislative challenges ahead. Timely member feedback on issues such as renewable energy portfolio standards and energy efficiency mandates provide cooperatives with strategic insight on how to best communicate the Cooperative Difference.

As Touchstone Energy’s market research partner, TSE Services has been investigating strategies to better educate members about what you are doing to protect their interests to improve member satisfaction and engagement.

This market research initiative produces actionable market intelligence on the cooperative value propositions most compelling to specific segments of the cooperative membership and identifies how to get your messages heard.
