Does your organization hold up effective communication as an important strategy to success? How do you measure how effective your communication efforts are? (Actually I really would love to know how you’re doing that, leave a comment). In many cases, leaders will look to successful organizations and mimic their communication efforts and styles. Well in the case of Early Childhood Education (ECE), you can strive to live up to the standards. You know, the NAEYC standards. Read more…
We’ve introduced an enhancement to events in MemberHub. Events can now have a map associated with them. When someone clicks on the event link inside a MemberHub calendar if an address has been provided, there will be a link to a Google map. Clicking that link will open a new tab with a large Google map for someone to easily view and get directions. This link will also get included in event notification and reminder emails. Read more…
In accordance with their 10-year commitment to the Pre-K Now campaign, Pew has just released their final report (PDF) which reveals significant increase in investment from state funding for Pre-k over the last 10 years and makes a very clear case for the support of a well-funded early eduction system in America.

We used to allow any user in MemberHub to edit their family members…but long story short, it became unwieldy. So we gave control over setting up families strictly to admins. However, we’ve had many customers (mainly churches) that have wanted to give the responsibility back to their members to configure their families and help setup the member directory.

I recently ran into a post with excerpts from best selling author, Seth Godin on the public education system. In the video Mr. Godin asserts that the public school system in America is teaching children to “aim low”.
We’ve had several people tell us recently that they haven’t found a system that approaches group software quite like MemberHub. Everytime I hear this it makes me smile. Of course it’s uplifting to learn that someone finds our product unique, but what’s more encouraging is that it continues to validate our approach towards our “group software”. So what’s the difference? Read more…
We have made an enhancement to the combined calendar feature in MemberHub. When you’re logged into MemberHub there is a Calendar link at the top. This Calendar has always served as just a read-only view of events from all the hub calendars that you’re a member of. For example, if you are in the Facility Team Hub and Worship Team Hub at your church, you’ll see events from both of those group calendars. You can adjust which color the events show up in, but this “combined calendar” has been read-only; until now. Read more…
