You get all this, for one small monthly fee.

Joining, renewals, member logins, a directory, whatever does the work for your group, plus design, copy, hosting and support. We build it, then we look after it.

Designed for your group

Built around your members and what they join for, not a template.

Members do their own updates

Details, listings, photos, offers and events, managed by the member, not the secretary.

Payments on join and renewal

Free and paid levels, with money going straight into your account.

Approvals in one click

New members, listings and offers held for you to approve before they go live.

Hosting and tech support

Fast, secure hosting with updates and backups handled, and someone technical to call when you're stuck.

Changes and support

Up to 1 hour of changes and support every month, for as long as you're with us.

Things our clients didn't know to ask for.

We've sat on committees and run businesses, so we build what a volunteer-run group actually needs.

  • Automatic emails for welcome, approvals and renewals
  • Listings created and linked on a member's behalf
  • Expired offers drop off the feed by themselves
  • Award nominations and People's Choice voting, one vote each
  • A rotating member question that feeds your social posts
  • Your member list in and out by spreadsheet, any time

For clubs, associations and business groups

$399 a month. Everything included.

One price for groups that run on memberships. Everything included, refined as your group grows.

What's included.

  • Custom designed website, no templates
  • Copywriting, written for you
  • Payments taken on joining and renewal
  • Hosting, security and backups
  • Up to 1 hour of changes and support every monthContent, pages, forms, membership tweaks, anything that keeps it working the way your group runs. If something's bigger than that, we say so up front and quote it.
  • Easy to find on Google
  • Ongoing refinements as your group changes

Shaped to your group.

Every build is custom, so the feature set is yours. These are ideas from websites we've already built:

  • Free and paid membership levels
  • A searchable member directory with profile pages
  • Member offers, events and specials with start and end dates
  • Member, client or customer logins

What we guarantee.

  • No extra costs. Changes, support and hosting are all in the price.
  • We keep refining it until it works the way your group runs.

After three years, the site is yours. Then you choose:

  • Keep us on, $99 a month: hosting, up to 1 hour of support and changes, updates and advice, same as always.
  • Take it with you: a complete export, hosted wherever you like.

Leaving before the three years are up? Pay out the balance and the site is yours.

Membership and login sites doing real work.

Still looking after every one of them.

Questions.

Can members pay online?

Yes. Payments are taken when members join and renew, straight into your account.

Can we have free and paid membership levels?

Yes. Valleys Business Network runs free Associate and paid Full memberships.

Can you move our existing member list across?

Yes, by importing it, and you can export it any time.

Our committee changes every year. Will that be a problem?

No. We look after the site, so the knowledge doesn't walk out the door when a volunteer moves on.

Do I own my website?

Yes. After three years of monthly payments it's yours, or pay $11,490 once, 20% less, and it's yours from day one.

What happens after three years?

The site is yours. Keep us on at $99 a month for hosting, up to 1 hour of support and changes, updates and advice, or take a complete export and host it yourself.

Do prices include GST?

Yes. $399 a month, GST included.

How long until we're live?

Four to eight weeks, depending on the build. Quick feedback from your committee speeds everything up.

See it before you decide.

Fifteen minutes on a video call. We'll show you the backend of a live membership site, and we'll both know if it's a fit.
