The pre-conditions of success
1. A top-notch CRM for a Single Source of Truth
You need a single data source you can use for accurate, informed decision-making. A 360° view of every interaction with your members and external stakeholders will help you segment, contextualize, personalize your communications.
Then only, you can make informed decisions and ensure the highest member satisfaction and retention rates. With one unified and integrated digital ecosystem, leveraging the best technologies in the market, you can manage contact data at the individual or at the organisation level. You can easily keep your data clean without any inconsistencies, errors, or duplicates. Your entire marketing and tech stack needs to be perfectly integrated with your CRM platform.
Symantra's CRM is the Number 1 CRM for reputed Membership-based associations in Europe. A CRM which is truly loved by staff (unlike many others).
Our clients have removed all their data silos and they are able to generate amazing productivity wins for staff (6 to 8 hours a week for each core staff).
By becoming fully data-centric, they unleash new revenues opportunities and increase member-centricity.
2. Strong Integrations and Intelligent Automations
Your association software needs to be designed by and for Membership-based organisations and associations working in the (European) Public Affairs.
At the same time, your system must be able to integrate perfectly with the latest and most popular digital solutions on the market (Microsoft 365, Mailchimp...). Most of the software for associations do not (or only if you believe their marketing fluff), they do everything half-cooked.
This creates hidden costs (custom developments, consultancy hours, time waste for staff copying-pasting data from one tool to another...) and members frustrations.
The inconvenient truth is that bad IT systems, wrong digital choices lead to staff losing time fixing bugs, resolving data inconsistencies, falling back on the manual way-of-working.
When you stick to bad digital infrastructure, this affects your brand reputation and certainly your ability to retain staff (they know that in other associations the work is more efficient and meaningful).
The IT tools should work for your staff, not against them.
