BUILDING AN ONLINE MEMBER DIRECTORY: THE COMPLETE PROCESS

In the crazy run of constant competition, it can be tough to get a new business
off the ground, but not when you know where you’re going.

You may provide your website visitors with a beneficial benefit by creating an
online member directory. Users can search your membership database dynamically
using member directories. They allow current members to go through lists of
peers and members of the general public to discover the person who best meets
their needs.

What is the purpose of a membership directory? Your membership list can be made
public, giving your members maximum exposure—you've given these groups your seal
of approval, which can lead to networking opportunities and business
recommendations from your other members.

But how can you achieve this?

Today’s guide of ours will take you step by step through the setup process.


QUICK READS

 * How Does an Online Member Directory Work?
 * 3 Major Steps to Build Your Online Membership Directory
 * Advantages of Using A Membership Management Software
 * How to Add Value Through Your Online Membership Directory?
 * How Do You Get the Word Out About Your Membership Directory?


HOW DOES AN ONLINE MEMBER DIRECTORY WORK?

When you're looking to connect with a friend or family member on social media,
all you have to do is type their name into the search bar, scroll through any
profiles that match, and here it is! You've found them.

An online membership directory works similarly: it's a list of all your
organization's members that makes it easier for them to connect.

These exhaustive lists can be public or private, but they are all typically
searchable. Other members of the general public can view who belongs to your
organization and look up important information in any member's profile.

If used correctly, member directories can be highly effective tools. Knowing how
to slice, secure, and display data is the key. An online membership directory
can rapidly become complicated when including membership voting, approvals, and
other factors.

You can take a different approach to member directories, one that takes
advantage of technology to increase the value and usability of your directory.
GlueUp can create a directory that meets your needs, whether you're a nonprofit,
a college, or a worldwide enterprise.

Member directories contain the names of members as well as other important
information stored by your organization.

The following information is commonly found in an online membership directory:

 * Member's surname (and a link to their profile, if applicable).
 * Email address in your email collection and social media handles.
 * Geographic location.
 * Role or membership level within the organization.
 * Workplace and professional title
 * Photograph.
 * Academics, family information, charitable emphasis, and other optional -
   information.

Member directories are frequently searchable by the public or other members. The
decision to make a directory public is up to the organization's discretion and
the members' privacy settings.

Users may be asked to create specific profiles that link to the main directory
by their organizations. This is a typical practice in professional organizations
where members are encouraged to network and mentor one another.


ADVANTAGES OF HAVING A MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY

You do not need a huge investment to build an online membership directory, on
the contrary a small startup funding will do. A membership directory, as
previously indicated, allows members to connect. While that reason alone may be
enough to persuade some people to create their membership directory, there is a
slew of other advantages as well:

You will assist your members in expanding their businesses.

When your members can readily discover one another, it can also function as a
source of business referrals. A chamber directory, for example, can indirectly
generate leads and assist in sending them to your members' businesses for
business partnerships, open positions, and those in need of a subject matter
expert.

A directory establishes your company's legitimacy.

An online directory allows you to brag about your long list of members, whether
your organization is brand new or well-established. With a general guide, you
can also use it to highlight or feature notable members and their
accomplishments.

You can expand your online presence.

Would you require a growth hacking agency to expand your online presence? Well,
you'll gain visitors from several places if you make a public list of all your
members. For example, when someone searches for Josh King, your directory
listing is likely to appear in the results. As part of your search engine
optimization (SEO) plan, this increased traffic is perfect for increasing domain
authority.

It can assist your administrators or employees.

Your staff can use this searchable list to segment groups of members, keep track
of member statuses, and send targeted emails, whether your membership directory
is private or public.


3 MAJOR STEPS TO BUILD YOUR ONLINE MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY

Data is one of the essential commodities; it is being referred to as the "new
oil." So, if you have some important or unique information that is difficult to
locate or collect elsewhere and people are prepared to pay for it, you can
create a valuable and profitable specialty directory.

The most flourishing membership groups use their website to engage, grow, and
retain their members while reducing administrative costs and time.

An online membership directory comes in handy for any business purpose, whether
selling online courses or physical products. Your website will run on its own
with little work after it is set up, allowing your members to associate with
your organization and one another.

In addition, your membership site will handle all registrations, payments,
contact information updates, and even email reminders automatically. In general,
a solid membership site can save you 20 hours or more every week in
administrative work. That's because it works in the background like a machine,
digesting and updating data so you can focus on other things like adding value
to your members and organizing events.


1. AUTOMATE MANUAL PROCESSES WITHIN MEMBERSHIP WORKFLOWS

Your company is in the business of giving incredible perks to its members. Many
organizations have achieved this by offering their members a marketing benefit
in an online directory. Directories give your members a third-party recognized
connection to a reputable organization (yours) while also allowing you to
showcase to potential members the high level of great company they'll discover
if they join your community.

Assume you're a professional member of your membership community. When you own a
small business, you're always on the lookout for ways to spread the word about
your fantastic niche offering. Being a member of a vetted professional
organization raises your profile in the community and can even help you rank
higher in search engines.

Unfortunately, creating membership directories may be complicated and expensive.
Writing a slew of pages, custom Apex code, and relying on a consultant for even
tiny modifications may add up quickly and take authority away from you.

It can be aggravating and time-consuming to track down those who have forgotten
to renew their subscriptions. You can automate renewal reminders and bills with
membership management software and make your members' lives easier by accepting
recurring membership payments.

Reduce your administrative workload by providing members with self-service
options, such as the ability to renew their membership on the spot by signing
into their profile. They can also use their computer or mobile device to
securely update their contact information, register for events, and pay
membership dues.

You can quickly develop a beautiful and mobile-optimized membership directory
for your group using the engaging platform. Non-technical members of your team
may easily design, customize, and publish online member directories that are
integrated with data already in your database without understanding any code.
You can do this through automated bulk SMS or by other ways of targeted
marketing strategies.

You'll even be able to match the directory's style to that of your website,
ensuring that your visitors know who's behind that great-looking community. Even
better, the member data you want to share publicly (or even privately in a
members-only area) may be published in real-time, eliminating the need for
double-entry into another system. It's all pre-programmed!


2. BUILD AND GROW YOUR COMMUNITY

So, you've produced a fantastic new resource that answers a significant issue.
Now you want to build an online community, maybe through a podcast. Your best
public relations team is your audience. People who already appreciate your
podcast can spread the news to their friends by word of mouth, which is the most
effective way to sell any product or service. Your audience will talk positively
about your show if they feel valued. Building a community around your podcast is
the best way to show your audience that you care about them, but then, the job
is just halfway completed. Isn't it true that if you build a product but don't
tell anyone about it, it won't solve any problems?

It's not enough to just put your membership directory out there and hope for the
best. You'll also need to promote your brand-new directory aggressively. Why?
Let your members, clients, and community members know about the directory so
they can utilize it for referrals, discovering fellow members, and more.
Promoting your new membership directory will increase traffic and expose your
group to potential members.

If you're not sure where to begin, try some of these member list promotion
strategies:

Use social media to promote it. With the world's 3.78 billion social media
users, it's only natural for you to promote your directory from the metaphorical
online rooftops. You can use your own branded social media pages for advertising
your member list and for lead generation, as well as individual members and
their achievements (and tag their social profile in the process).

Ensure that your website is not counting bots as users, as this can harm your
website traffic analytics. Keep an eye on the bot protection score, and run
numerous tests on your website to determine how secure you are from bots.

Make sure that all of the board members are aware of it. One approach to get the
word out about your membership directory is to urge the members of your board of
directors to share it with their networks. Allow your board members to promote
your directory as evangelists. This can involve mentioning it at events, posting
it on social media, and even including a link in their email signature.

Promotion at public events. Mention your membership directory when you attend an
event on behalf of your organization, whether it's a conference, industry
gathering, or panel. If you're giving a presentation at an event, make sure to
mention it and include a link in your deck. Update your marketing materials to
form a shortened link to your directory if you have a booth or table at a
conference.

Remind people via your organization's email newsletter or other publications.
Startup email marketing has a 4,200% return on investment. With such a
high-profit potential, it makes sense to build a campaign around your membership
directory. Let your members know about the perks in your email newsletter and
highlight members who have received particular distinctions or accolades. You
can also contact other trade journals and ask them to include a link to your
directory in their newsletter.

Whether it's for a social media campaign or an email marketing campaign, the
need for a unique design stays the same. If you're doing email marketing
campaigns, consider using SaaS marketing email templates for creative ideas.
This way, receivers will feel more engaged and valued.


3. ACQUIRE AND MAINTAIN NEW MEMBERS SUCCESSFULLY

Do you consider how to increase the efficiency of your employees when developing
member acquisition and retention strategies for your organization? Think of
this: simplifying and streamlining your association's day-to-day operations
frees up necessary staff time, allowing them to focus on acquiring new customers
and providing a positive member experience.

You may use workflows in current membership software to automate formerly manual
operations, making your team more efficient. A series of automated processes
initiated by a given action is referred to as an automated workflow.

Here are a few examples of operations you can automate to increase the
efficiency of your association's personnel and, as a result, boost online member
acquisition and retention:

Email Communications to Members

Automate email mailings to members based on actions taken by members, such as
registering for an event or paying dues. When members join your organization and
pay their annual dues, for example, they can receive an automated email
confirmation of their membership that includes a payment receipt. Or, if you
have a new live chat going on, they can get notified and join real-time
messaging with other members. This workflow is started when a new member joins
and pays their annual membership dues.

The higher your position in the search results, the more organic clicks you'll
get from people looking online. Furthermore, double-check SPF records to ensure
maximum email deliverability if you're planning an email marketing campaign.

Membership Renewal

According to the Community Brands Member Loyalty Study, 13% of lapsed members
neglected to renew their membership. Suggesting an option to automatically renew
membership with the membership cost charged to the member's credit card is one
of the best methods to address this issue. This option should be included in
your AMS, along with automated emails notifying members when their membership
has been renewed.

Push Notifications for Renewal Reminders

Give customers who aren't set up for auto-renewal an extra nudge by sending them
automated push notifications through your mobile app when their membership is
about to expire. Ensure your association management system (AMS) includes this
portable alternative to taking advantage of this strategy.

Member Address Updates

A more sophisticated workflow is used when members register for your
association's annual meeting. They can update their profile information with
their new contact information by registering with their updated mailing address
and checking a box. Instead of requiring a staff member to update their profile
manually, the automated procedure in the AMS may do it. Moreover, to make these
meetings more productive, encourage taking meeting notes and brainstorming.

Reports

Schedule essential, timely membership reports to be sent to yourself or
executive management via email. Whether it’s a corporate wellness strategy
report or something regarding the company’s financial resources, data allows us
to acquire and retain members more easily. Set up a workflow in your AMS to
automatically send your executive director and board of directors chairman a
monthly membership summary.


ADVANTAGES OF USING A MEMBERSHIP MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE


1. SIMPLIFY THE MEMBER APPLICATION PROCESS

The member application process can be automated using a membership management
software, allowing you to make a fantastic first impression on your new members.
Create a web-based, mobile-friendly form so candidates may enter all of the
information you require and pay online with a credit card to eliminate
time-consuming paperwork.

You may add numerous membership levels, discount codes, and administrator
approval to your member application form, as well as set up automated emails to
welcome new members as soon as their application is approved. You can also
provide family, team, and company memberships, which allow group administrators
to manage their members within your broader membership base.


2. SHARE AND UPDATE MEMBER DATA IN REAL-TIME

If you spend hours each week emailing membership lists back and forth with your
team, using the same platform for members save you hours. Board members and
volunteers can access the database online, and modifications to member
information are made quickly, ensuring that your data is always current.

It's easy to get started: import your member data from a spreadsheet, configure
the database to meet your needs, and you're good to go!


3. ENGAGE MEMBERS WITH EXCLUSIVE CONTENT

Access to unique members-only web pages, such as networking forums and specialty
blogs, can help you increase member engagement. You may also select which member
levels or groups have access to particular pages.

Do you have a WordPress website? No issue – our WordPress connection allows you
to set up member-only access to your site's content.


4. SET UP SEARCHABLE ONLINE MEMBER DIRECTORIES

Use various member directories that are always up to date to help your members
connect or the broader public.

You may decide which information each directory reveals, whether you create a
public directory of your members' businesses or a directory that only your
members can see. You can quickly embed mobile-friendly member directories on
your website.


5. INTEGRATE MEMBERSHIP FEATURES INTO YOUR WEBSITE

It does not matter which website builder you use, you can integrate membership
features into your site.

With a drag-and-drop website builder, you can construct a new website or add
membership services to an existing one by embedding membership application
forms, directories, and event listings as widgets. These widgets are always
connected to your database, ensuring that the information is constantly updated.


HOW TO ADD VALUE THROUGH YOUR ONLINE MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY?

One of the most common inquiries we get is what other clubs are doing to provide
more value to their members, so we thought we'd give some examples of how your
company can successfully use the Online Membership Directory.

It depends on your organization, and a variety of groups have successfully
implemented the directory listing concept. A member's directory listing can be
amended and updated, and added to specific membership types.

It's a big plus to be listed in your organization's online membership directory.
It allows members to be seen by the rest of your membership.

It signifies that you have endorsed this individual and their skills. It serves
as a resource for business referrals and networking.

What else are you doing to help them achieve awareness and use those rewards
besides presenting that listing as a membership benefit? Consider how you may
add value to your membership directory by addressing the following questions:


WHAT’S SHOWN IN A MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY LISTING?

Each member's profile should begin with the same basic information. Include a
couple of different contact points — such as a mobile phone number and an
office, or a phone number and an email address — so that people may reach them
in various ways.

What else could a listing offer, aside from the standard information, assist
members in standing out? What are the differences between the colors? Is there a
logo or any business cards? Is it possible to provide a link to their location
or their résumé in your career center?

Some groups and chambers take advantage of this by offering tiered membership
directory benefits, with higher levels of investment bringing with them more
perks to help them stand out in the directory.

One suggestion: regardless of what is included in their listing, have members
review it regularly and make any necessary adjustments – this might be a simple
reminder to include in your member renewal process.


HOW DO YOU GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT YOUR MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY?

Marketing your online membership directory implies actively promoting your
members, which only strengthens their bonds with your organization. Keeping an
open, constructive feedback list from the members and acting upon them builds a
sense of trust.

Consider the following options for promoting your online directory:

 * It should be a part of your social media monitoring strategy.
 * Requesting that your board members share with their extensive network.
 * Including reminders in your newsletter or other printed materials.
 * How can you get people to visit your membership directory using SEO?

You may actively market your directory by implementing some of the tips above
and making specific search engine optimization (SEO) changes that will
organically drive more traffic to your website. Whether your members are
interested in IT conferences or are looking for monthly rentals in Paris, all
processes are done more easily with the help of member directories.

Make sure your category descriptions in the membership directory include the
appropriate keywords. Consider what you would type into a search engine if you
were looking for firms in these categories, and see if you can use those terms
in writing on your directory page. You can also do some research using a free
keyword search tool.


CONCLUSION

While each membership directory will have its style and feel, some primary data
should be included in each entry. Your organization's and members' specific
needs will significantly influence the type of content in each listing.

Whether you're a chamber or an association, it's important to remind members to
update their information regularly and keep your directory current. It's simple
to include a reminder like this in your member renewal letters.
