Club membership administration
Club membership administration is a task that arises when those who regularly enjoy leisure activities decide to organise themselves into clubs that have to be managed. These organisations can be car or bike owners’ and enthusiasts’ clubs, sports clubs or even groups that share a common interest in some aspect of culture, such as history, music or foreign travel.
Very often, the roles of chairperson, secretary, treasurer and events manager are happily filled by volunteers and initially the members help out with other tasks as needed. Eventually, as the club grows across the region, country or even worldwide, they discover how time consuming the club administration burden can be, and the larger the membership list, the more complicated the work can become.
The collection of club subscriptions, issuing of membership cards, the compilation, print and distribution of newsletters or magazines, sourcing advertisers or sponsorship, the organisation of regional or national events - all these tasks soon prove to be more onerous than was ever imagined and the club often falls into disarray as a result.
Assuming a realistic level of income from membership subscriptions, club membership administration can easily and seamlessly be outsourced. Standby has been providing admin support on an ad hoc basis for many clubs, charities and similar organisations, all of whom soon began to appreciate the benefits.
