NonProfits Only, Inc Announces NNEMS Membership Enhancements

Robbinsville, NJ -- Jan 15, 2004 -- NonProfits Only, Inc. announced enhancements to the membership engine of its NNEMS system. According to Stephen M. Reuning, the company's CEO, "The Membership Feature now provides an even higher degree of system flexibility for offering, promoting, signing-up and managing members online."  Membership Types can be assigned to all kinds of groups such as employees, specific department staff, managers, contributors, parishioners, reporters and journalists, constituents, vendors, customers, prospects, etc.  Membership Types are used to classify groups of contacts in order to control access to specific website functionality and to trigger events specific to given membership types -- events such as billing, program notifications, surveys, news delivery, exchange announcements, press releases, etc. For example, some organizations provide separate memberships to access different exchanges such as employer job posting and applicant resume posting. Others use membership types to separate donation levels such as Gold Sponsor, Silver Sponsor and Bronze Sponsor. In such cases, Gold Sponsors might get privileged access to all the sponsor facilities while Silver and Bronze get less accordingly. Some associations create an “Expert” membership type and charge a fee for that membership. Expert members then enjoy listing in the online Expert Directory, receive leads from our “Ask the Expert” feature, and may sell products and services through our exchange feature. Subscriptions to publications and other features are controlled through this feature also.

Brock Miller, Chief Technology Officer of NonProfits Only, Inc. stated that "The possible number of membership types is virtually unlimited. So, its up to you to find creative ways to provide paid and/or unpaid access to the many benefits of your portal."
