Trade & Professional Associations
Dedicated space for your Association members to connect with each other
Key Mobile Engagement App Features for Your Association
Boost engagement, foster relationships, generate revenue, and reinforce the value of your association’s memberships—all with Clowder’s powerful mobile app. Give your members a dedicated space to connect not just during events, but all year long.
Reach More Members With Targeted Communications
Keep members in the loop about everything your association has to offer and provide opportunities for them to network and learn from each other with Clowder’s messaging tools. Plus, mobile communications and push notifications help you cut through the noise, rather than sending emails that often get lost in the shuffle.
- One-to-One Messaging: Let members contact each other directly and securely.
- Member Forums: Create spaces for members to discuss industry topics and best practices.
- News Feed: Give members personalized updates about your association and their field.
- Resource Library: Compile documents and multimedia content for continuous learning.
Simplify & Enhance Unlimited Events
Ensure members have a positive experience before, during, and after each of your association’s events. While Clowder is more than just an event app, we provide everything you need to promote and manage conferences, workshops, fundraisers, and more.
- Scheduling & Agendas: Publish session details and let attendees structure their own event days.
- QR Codes: Streamline check-in and encourage networking with digital business cards.
- Badge Creation: Save your team time by connecting badges to member profiles.
- Gamification & Polls: Hold members’ attention and collect their feedback throughout the entire event.
Boost Association Revenue & Relationships
Maintaining relationships with members and other key stakeholders (like sponsors) is critical for your association to thrive, as is bringing in revenue from a variety of sources. Clowder helps you do both and track your progress so you can continually improve in these areas.
- Sponsorship Management: Track touchpoints and provide brand exposure via sponsored content and pre-event exhibitor promotion.
- In-App Advertising: Get sponsors’ products in front of members with banner campaigns and splash screens.
- Membership Tracking: Quickly remind members about renewals and suggest engagement opportunities based on their past activity.
Comprehensive Mobile-First Member Engagement Tools
As the #1 engagement solution for professional communities, Clowder offers native apps for both iOS and Android. Think of Clowder as your association’s private social network, allowing for year-round mobile member engagement through an intuitive, user-friendly platform.
- Customizable User Experience: Configure your app to your members’ preferences and incorporate your association’s logo, colors, fonts, and other brand elements throughout the interface, all with no coding required. If you have any questions, our dedicated customer support team is here to help!
- Command Center: The backend administrative aspect of your app allows for full content and user management, as well as easy access to analytics. If your association has multiple chapters or subgroups you want to reach with unique messages, we’ve got you covered there, too.
- Top-of-the-Line Integrations: From its inception, Clowder has embraced an integration-first approach. You can integrate your app with more than 200 CRMs, AMS, job boards, website builders, and other popular solutions for seamless data transfer and management.
