Client Spotlight: Center for Operator Performance

We have been incredibly grateful lately for all of the new clients coming our way. We always ensure that our current clients remain a priority especially during times of change for Impact. This week we are focusing on a client that we have had for almost a year now, the Center for Operator Performance (COP). The Center for Operator Performance is made up of industry, vendor, and academia representatives. This group concentrates their attention on human capabilities and limitations with research, collaboration, and human factors engineering.

Members of COP include companies such as BP, Chevron, CITGO, Emerson, and more. The founding member was Beville Engineering, Inc. COP provides many resources for both members and the public. On their website, you can find training videos, recommended books, and industry news.

Tammy is COP’s Executive Administrator. She handles financials, general email management, and anything the group comes to her with! They are a great group to work with and Tammy has enjoyed her time with them so far.

Client Spotlight: Meeting Professionals International Connecticut River Valley

In February of this year, we partnered with the Meeting Professionals International Connecticut River Valley. MPI Connecticut River Valley has over 100 members and is made up of local colleagues that specialize in meeting and event planning as well as supplier members. The organization provides networking opportunities, educational programs, leadership development, and professional recognition. MPI CRV understands the needs and wants of their members and ensures delivery. Their mission is, “To provide MPI members, chapters and the global meeting and event community with innovative and relevant education, networking opportunities and business exchanges, and to act as a prominent voice for the promotion and growth of the industry.”  

MPI CRV has strong core values that guide what they do and who they are. These values include being focused on people, having enthusiasm and passion, empowering trust and integrity, dedication to collaboration, and a commitment to principled profitability. Sticking with these values has proved successful so far. 

Impact assists MPI CRV with their email management, website management, financials, chapter meetings and events. Chassidy and Tammy also work with MPI CRV on member communication by creating newsletters, email blasts, and social media content. These first few months with this chapter and have gone swimmingly and we are excited to watch them grow! 

Email Blasts that Deliver

Whether it be newsletters, announcements, or meeting invitations, your organization is sending out email blasts. No matter how many people you have on your list, however, you might find the results to be disappointing. Design and compatibility for email blasts are often lacking from membership management websites. Luckily, we have found two great alternatives.

Constant Contact

We often use Constant Contact for clients that are willing to invest a small amount of money into their email platform. It allows for simple yet visually appealing designs, email tracking, and contact information management. Constant Contact costs $45 a month and has proven to be worth it for our team.

MailChimp

MailChimp is another platform we often use at Impact. It is free up until you reach 2,000 subscribers. This can be a treat for smaller organizations hoping to grow through their email campaigns. MailChimp is easy to use, allows for contact lists to be imported, and has a responsive customer support staff.

The platform you use for email blasts can make a difference in the look, quality, and reach. If you are taking the time to reach out to your members, do it well.

Client Spotlight: International Personnel Assessment Council

At the start of 2019, Impact started a partnership with the International Personnel Assessment Council. This week we are sharing more about the organization and how we work with them to meet their goals. The International Personnel Assessment Council is a nonprofit organization made up of HR directors and managers, specialists in staffing, recruiting, organizational performance management, and more. These professionals have interest and expertise in development and effective use of HR selection and assessment methods. IPAC’s mission states, “To serve personnel assessment practitioners and scientists by facilitating interaction with a community  of  peers  and  experts  and  delivering  the  practical  tools  they  need  to  achieve  professional success.”  

Caroline and Tammy are IPAC’s Executive Administrators. These two have been hard at work transitioning IPAC over to Impact. There are many steps involved in on-boarding a client and they have managed to do so quickly and efficiently while learning the day to day tasks involved as well. Caroline and Tammy have also been supporting IPAC by helping with chapter event planning, email management, website updates and maintenance, membership data, and more. We look forward to helping this group grow in every way possible!
