I am not collecting dues and donations. Should I still obtain an Association Management Program?
Foundations, associations, and non-governmental organizations typically rely on membership fees or donations to fulfill their goals and cover expenses. If you believe the organization you are affiliated with does not fit this definition and therefore does not need an association management program, we recommend you read our article carefully before making a decision.
It is important for associations to engage with members and donors, align them with common goals, keep them informed about ongoing work, and gather their input, among other things. For this reason, you should be able to reach out to all members of the association whenever necessary. Of course, the key to achieving this is ensuring that your members’ contact information is up-to-date. So, how can an association management program help you with this?
Timeliness of Communication Data
Keeping the contact information of your members and donors up-to-date can be challenging, as it requires considerable effort. In associations that do not use an association management program, this process is entirely manual, which can complicate effective member management. Aidango offers a module that allows members to log into the system and update all their information. With this module, your members can easily update their contact details and provide new information without extra effort, ensuring you can communicate with them whenever needed.
Categorizing People
In terms of associations, one of the most critical aspects of member management is understanding the social and demographic structures to which individuals belong. It is well-established that communication activities that disregard differences within the group often yield poor results. For this reason, you can tailor the content of text messages, emails, and phone calls to each group by categorizing your members and donors through the association management program. This will help you outline a successful communication strategy for managing your association.
Bulk or Individual Email and Short Message Sending Capability
Associations use various methods to communicate with their members, with email and SMS being the most preferred. Sometimes, you may need to send SMS reminders to your members about activities or other updates. The association management program offers you convenience in this regard, allowing you to send the email or SMS content you’ve prepared to your previously categorized members on the date and time you specify. You can manage all of these tasks through the Aidango association management program.
Detection of Inaccurate Contact Information by Tracking Submissions
One method of verifying members’ contact information is using messages with delivery reports. These messages notify you when they have been delivered and even when they have been read by the recipient. While monitoring such messages is difficult, if not impossible, in manual systems, it becomes much easier with the association management program. With Aidango, you can easily track the emails and text messages you send. Additionally, thanks to a special debug module that alerts you when contact information is incorrect, you can verify member information as needed.
As mentioned earlier, an association requires membership fees and donations to survive. The most effective way to achieve this is by establishing a sustainable communication strategy with members and donors. By choosing the Aidango association management program, you will ensure a sustainable, dynamic, and healthy communication routine.
