Fast Growing WebLink Launches 16 New Clients in June
July 13, 2011 - INDIANAPOLIS – WebLink International, the industry’s leading database software and website provider for associations and chambers of commerce, launched 16 new client technology solutions in June 2011.
As associations and chambers of commerce continue to evolve, they are consistently turning to membership management software technology provided by WebLink to deliver value to their members and their communities.
The company feels the recent trend toward technology investment by chambers will continue to rise over the next year.
"Associations and chambers of commerce realize that technology is critical for them to remain relevant to their members," said DJ Muller, President and Founder of WebLink. "Frequently, a new website is an extremely efficient and cost-effective way for a chamber to improve their brand, create additional exposure and marketing opportunities for their members and demonstrate the organization’s commitment to the business community."
The dramatic success of social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube has shown associations that they must adapt and change more quickly than in the past. Associations of all sizes – from 200 members to more than 10,000 – are investing in technology to capitalize on the latest website and social media trends.
"It’s really an exciting time in this industry," Muller summarized. “The technology is advancing at an exponential rate, which empowers associations and chambers to deliver real, measurable success to their members. It also means organizations need to be aware of what’s out there. A website designed just 18 months to two years ago needs a refresh to regain its competitive edge in the online arena."
Chambers launching new websites included:
- Fontana, CA Area Chamber of Commerce
- Santa Clarita Valley, CA Chamber of Commerce
- Seguin, TX Area Chamber of Commerce
- Southeast Kentucky Chamber of Commerce
- Southwestern Auglaize County, OH Chamber of Commerce
- Upper Bucks, PA Chamber of Commerce
Many other organizations invested in WebLink technology through membership management software and dynamic website content such as member directories, news listings, event calendars, e-commerce and more, including:
- Albuquerque Economic Development, Inc.
- Bethany-Fenwick, DE Chamber of Commerce
- Davis, CA Chamber of Commerce
- Findlay Hancock, OH County Chamber of Commerce
- Forest Park, IL Chamber of Commerce
- Greensburg/Decatur County, IN Chamber of Commerce
- Lincoln-Logan County Chamber of Commerce
- Marshfield, WI Area Chamber of Commerce
- Merrimack Valley, MA Chamber of Commerce
- Metro North, CO Chamber of Commerce
"The organizations we work with are dedicated to the success of their members." Muller continued, "They invest in new database management technology and websites because they want to increase new member sales, improve member retention and develop valuable streams of non-dues revenue. They choose WebLink because we take a consultative approach and really work to deliver a product that will help these chambers meet - and exceed - their goals."
