Membership admin tasks include keeping accurate records, processing payments, tracking member activity, offering multiple payment options, and a bunch of other time-consuming tasks – all of which are required to provide a modern membership experience.

Providing a modern membership experience is closely tied to the growth of your group, and a must to appeal to younger demographics and attract new members.

Ask yourself whether your group is providing the following benefits to members:
​

• Your membership is rich with value to members. Being part of your group provides benefits such as community, networking opportunities, the ability to support a mission or cause, prestige of belonging to your organization, and access to exclusive perks.
• Membership is easy to manage for both your admins and members. Online payment processing gives members convenient payment options, including the ability to automatically renew membership and set auto-recurring payments.
• Members can access their membership online. Transparency is critical, and members can check their payment history and see your group’s updates through your website, a dedicated member portal, or a mobile app.
• Your membership is mobile. You can connect with members on the go through an easy-to-use app and other features, which cater to members’ preferred means of communicating.

 

When you effectively and efficiently manage members, you solve membership and reap awesome benefits. A leading software research company reports a 70 to 80 percent renewal rate with automatic recurring membership! Solving membership frees up your most valuable commodity – time. That means you have more time to accomplish your group’s mission or cause, more time to engage your members, and more time to actively recruit – which leads to growth.
