Introducing Member Splash to Your Members

Use your Mailchimp account (or other mailing system) for sending bulk emails to your membership. Our experience is that club’s email data runs the gamut from non-existent to fairly comprehensive. Our recommendation to clubs is that you send an initial email to your members letting them know about the new site and how to access their accounts. This is a key step in introducing your membership to Member Splash.

Since most mail packages tracks opens and bounces you can then generate a list of members who either don’t have an email address on file or didn’t get or read the email and follow up with a paper mailing.

Sample Email #1 Introducing Member Splash to Existing Members 

Welcome to the New Season!

We are excited to announce that with this renewal campaign we are also launching a new membership management system that will allow you to pay your membership, buy guest passes as well as have the front gate staff check you and your guests in quickly at the front gate among many other benefits.  

As part of the pre-launch process, we have worked hard to clean our records and import all of your existing account data into the new system.  We ask that when you first log into the new system to secure and pay your membership dues, please take a moment to verify all of your account information and make any corrections needed.  If you have any questions or need assistance with any changes please contact us at <insert email here>.
