Through simple implementation and ease of use, the inCircle solution helps membership associations create, track and build connections with members-wherever they are on the open Web. The inCircle suite of tools keeps members attached to their associations, which results in more engaged members and increased advocacy and giving.

inCircle

The inCircle strategy begins with the inCircle platform-a branded and hosted member utility that connects associations with their members, and vice versa. With inCircle, membership associations have a comprehensive tool for member-to-member connections and relevant opportunity exchanges.

Opportunities

inCircle Opportunities enable associations to offer their members what they want, wherever they are on the Web. Opportunities are always relevant because they're based on expressed member interests and pertinent data including location, hobbies, profession, degree and more. Opportunities work through inCircle, as well as third-party social networks and other Web applications.

Reach

inCircle Opportunities enable you to extend your association's reach by harnessing the power of third-party networks, including Facebook and RSS newsfeeds. Members are free to access their Opportunities via the Web applications and pages they visit most. You can even track where your Opportunities are being viewed, which allows you to better understand your members' interests.

Tracking

With inCircle's sophisticated administrative tools, you have the power to track interest in specific Opportunities. You can also view important information like the sites or applications used to view the Opportunities, and the number of members that viewed them. This allows you to contact interested members and provide them with additional information. inCircle also provides comprehensive quarter-over-quarter tracking, which helps you achieve continued success.
