Weblink Aligns With Two Indiana Chambers To Support And Build Business

INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – June 6, 2008 – WebLink International, a leading provider of online software for membership-based organizations, announces today the addition of two new area clients: the Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce.

Founded in 1996, WebLink International is a software as a service (SaaS) company that provides Web site development and hosting, member relationship and financial management, reporting and consultation services to membership organizations and chambers of commerce across the country. These tools allow organizations to update information, communicate and show measurable results to members easily and immediately.

“Benchmarking is an important tool for any chamber,” said Kelley Brown, director of marketing and public relations at the Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce. “As we studied other chamber Web sites, the ones that quickly rose to the top were all designed and hosted by WebLink. We even contacted some of those chambers to find out more about the WebLink process and experience, and that made the decision to go with WebLink an easy one.”

WebLink maintains a client base of more than 400 organizations, including the Boston, Portland, Sacramento, Florida and South Carolina chambers of commerce, and has earned a strong reputation among the chamber community nationwide. But the company says it especially looking forward to the opportunity to impact the Indiana business community.

“The great thing about the WebLink product is that it benefits the entire community,” said WebLink president and CEO DJ Muller. “Yes, the technology helps connect chambers to their members but it also helps local businesses by making consumers more aware of their services and providing tools and advice they need to succeed. It’s grown and changed the business environments for so many chambers around the country, and we’re eager to see how we can assist these local communities and bring those great results to our own state.”

Leaders from both chambers, already impressed with the WebLink’s reputation, training and customer service, seem to echo this sentiment.

“The most exciting part is the Web component, which is absolutely second to none,” said Shannon McNett-Silcox, vice president member relations at the Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce. “We turned to WebLink because we also needed a lot of horsepower behind our database. We needed to cultivate stronger relationships with our members and their combined software was the perfect answer. There’s just no other provider that would allow us to do that in such a simple and efficient way.”
