At Ambitionality Software, we are proud members of the Kingman Area Chamber of Commerce. In fact, our founders and core designers are active members of the governing board. Chamber Power is a concrete solution to real world challenges and needs that we face every day in our quest to make our chamber the best possible. See why Chamber Power is the right solution for your chamber.
Save time and overhead
With Chamber Power we have taken an approach to making life simple - cut out the fat. Before we developed Chamber Power, we took a good look at what our Chamber regularly needed to function day to day and provide useful information to our board and compared it to what our various software packages provided. We also looked at how we collected and analyzed any additional data that our software couldn't easily track for us. At the end of the day we discovered that we used very little of the functionality of our existing software packages from member management to billing to website management. We also discovered that we did a lot of work in Excel and with special email programs to manage referrals and communication functions.
The conclusion we came to was that we were paying for a lot of computer applications that we weren't fully utilizing and had no need for. We also discovered that we were performing a lot of work by hand that could easily be automated with the right software program. Our solution was to develop a software package that addressed our core needs quickly, easily and inexpensively. Our solution was Chamber Power.
Chamber Power saves us time and money by making our most common functions the core functionality of its offering. For example, managing basic membership, invoicing and managing subscriptions were areas that we spent most of our time. Chamber Power provides easy and powerful mechanisms to facilitate all of these processes. We also found that we were spending a lot of time updating our website with information like our membership directory, coupon offerings and job postings independently of managing that information in our membership database. Chamber Power addresses this for us by integrating everything right into our website with no separate processes.
Take Advantage of the Power of the Web
A chamber's website is the single largest marketing and promotional tool that any chamber possesses outside of its own membership. When it comes to making your members' services known and available to other chamber members, community members, and tourists, your website is the right place to have that information. It is critical that a chamber's website displays the most appropriate information in the best way possible to attract, retain and convert members and convert visitors into paying clients for chamber members.
Every aspect of Chamber Power is tailored to empower your chamber website with the tools and features that members and buyers need. Chamber Power provides attractive and easy to manage banner advertising for members, on-line job postings and coupon offerings. An easy to use and versatile event calendar is included to to manage chamber and community events as well as member submitted events. An on-line member directory that is easy to search is a must. Chamber Power provides a sleek, easy to search categorical member directory complete with enhancements like logos, summaries, maps and links to other member offerings. Take the feature tour to learn a little bit more about all of the great web site tools Chamber Power offers.
If you have an existing web site that you are happy with, Chamber Power integrates quickly and easily using copy and paste code that you can stick right into your own website's code. If you are looking for a premium integration, consider a complete web site design and integration by Ambitionality Software.
Offer Convenience to Chamber Members
Your members' time is valuable. Keeping member information up to date with emails and snail mail is not only time consuming for chamber staff, but burdensome for members. Chamber Power eliminates the need for the back and forth of mail communication by giving every member direct access to their own information on-line. Members can easily log in and update business and contact information, not to mention customize any of their subscriptions such as on-line directory entries or directory enhancements.
Aside from keeping business information up to date, mailing in bills and calling in credit card information is slow and cumbersome. Chamber Power makes viewing account history and making payments a breeze with on-line access right from the users' Chamber Power dashboard any time, day or night.
Show Your Members the Value of their Investment
Every time a member logs into their Chamber Power account, the first thing they see is a list of statistics for every subscription they have with the chamber. They see how many times their business has been referred by the chamber, how many times their website directory listing has been displayed, how many times a printed member directory has been handed out, and any other stats that apply to services they have invested in. Putting this information right in front of members every day is a great way to remind them of the return on investment that their chamber membership represents.
