The team at LCubed, whist implementing the Member Manager solution, have been working with Associations Australia wide for many years. We have helped but we have also been helped, generally Associations are not competitive, which has meant that knowledge has been freely shared and we have learned much!
This knowledge and experience can be brought to bare for you organisation in a number of forms. Commonly this involves:
Providing expert feedback on the organisations web level adoption and usage, from people skills to websites and databases. If there are areas where you believe your organisation is lagging behind or not exploiting potential we can help you plan a practical and effective path forward.
One of the most common uses of the internet is to reduce costs across the organisations. This could be outbound communications costs or outsourcing management fees. The web and internet can provide automation and very cheap communications.
The next most popular activity after saving money is deriving new revenue streams. We break these into two parts:
The internet was built to connect us, whether it be individual to individual or organisation to member, the web can both improve communication and reduce costs. We can help you use the internet to achieve both.
Over 80% of website visitors find you via search engines. The power and influence of Google is staggering, fortunately Google looks favorably upon Associations. We can help you make the most of this advantage.
One of the key questions when carrying out a significant web implementation is what platform or technology to build upon. This decision will effect all future options and influence project price points. Open Source or Proprietary? Build or Buy? Custom development or Out of the Box?
The web world has become renowned for failed and delayed projects. Expectations are often missed and budgets blown. Any significant project requires project management, but online this has been forgotten. New systems effect your staff, members and stakeholders – we can help make sure change is positive one.
Sometimes organisations know they need to implement new systems but do not have the skills in house to select or manage the right vendor. We have a wealth of experience managing our own teams but also external parties to get the right result.
You may already have a platform to support our online activities but are looking for improvements in terms of useabilty for your members or to ensure that your brand is represented optimally.
Sometimes organisations are simply looking for help with a website upgrade without the bells and whistles. We can help with the most modest of projects.
