THE CHALLENGE
When Laurie Lourie came on board as Executive Vice President of the York Builders Association in York, Pennsylvania, she brought 22 years of association experience and a keen eye for continuous improvement. She knew that a dues-based organization had to have cost-efficient systems to provide members with valuable programs and services.
How to choose the right AMS Software
Laurie identified costly inefficiencies at the builders association, including separate systems for managing programs, accounting, and member data. With limited staff, outsourcing technical support would prove to be expensive. After researching Association Management Software (AMS), Laurie determined her top requirement was affordability.
THE SOLUTION
After numerous software demonstrations, Laurie’s decision was clear. “The features of GrowthZone AMS checked all of our boxes,” she said. “The fact that the onboarding experience was excellent and included efficient and professional technical support throughout the process was a bonus.”
THE RESULTS
Laurie is confident that system improvements will significantly impact membership growth and retention. “We appreciate the ability to make updates to our association website via the GrowthZone system and having access to their knowledgeable customer service representatives,” Laurie added.
