The Difference
In the past, a smaller association management & governmental affairs firm was considered limited in the services they could provide to a client. Given modern technology – this perception is no longer accurate. Technology now combined with a qualified small firm provides a personal touch difficult to achieve in larger multi-client groups and thus a significantly better overall level of service for members.
Further, founder Blake Jeffery was awarded the professional certification of Certified Association Executive (CAE) in 2004 by the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) – a designation held by less than 5% of the association professionals in America and reflective of broad knowledge and experience in professional association management. So when experience is paired with technology, the results and benefits are many including:
- Instant communication with an entire membership no matter how large via email, fax, list servs or other social media.
- Professional newsletter/ flyer/ publication development without costly input from design and print shops.
- Legislative and regulatory tracking of 100’s of bills and rules that impact member livelihoods.
- Efficient and trustworthy financial management.
- Utilization of the latest technology and software to build and maintain membership databases, create documents, spreadsheets, newsletters and marketing materials as well as to protect confidential and valuable information from technical failure or external intrusion.
- Integrated online database management of any size to efficiently utilize member information for truly tailored service provision.
- Established relationships with hotels, caterers, printers and numerous other suppliers to get the best service at the best price available throughout the country.
And the list goes on but suffice it to say:
Targeted Client Focus + Specialized Knowledge + Cutting Edge Technology = The difference…
…in our level of service and attention to the personal details important to a client and their members.
