Small Staff Association Support

Freedom and Control

Author, Thomas Friedman says in The World is Flat: “The best companies outsource to win, not to shrink. They outsource to innovate faster and more cheaply in order to grow larger, gain more market share, and hire more and different specialists – not to save money by firing more people.”

SBI Management has depth of experience in working with small associations and larger ones too.  We understand the demands that the Executive Director experiences on a daily basis.  We believe SBI Management can effectively support your organization’s database, membership and financial functions with knowledge, responsive reporting and best practices. 

Our clients tell us that their time management improves because they are less constricted by “the mechanics of building and populating database systems.”  Gain control over your data, finances and member programs so that you can ratchet up your advocacy, recruit more members and pull in more fundraising dollars.

Customizable and Seamless...

Database Services: SBI Management can function as your IT department.  If your website needs to be up-dated, we can do that.  Information can be added to your website quickly because your website is maintained daily by our tech team. All of our website functions and online payments are secure and meet PCI (Payment Card Industry) standards.

Membership Services: We provide membership support through timely communications and member renewals. We monitor and process all online credit-card processing of online meetings, events and programs registrations.  Teleconferencing, videoconferencing and webinars are also available to you. New Members, Renewals and Membership Records. 

Financial Management Tools:  SBI Management Services works with you to manage the association finances. This is one of the most demanding aspects of any manager’s job. We use proven methods to monitor and control costs; provide daily bookkeeping of income and expenses; submit monthly financial reports; prepare tax forms; assist with preparing operating, marketing and committee budgets; and there are more services that you can utilize based on your needs.

Backup

Board Members work hard at their day job and their volunteering.  Some are with your association for a couple of years or a couple of decades.  Interns can be very helpful for an event or meeting but they are gone at the end of the semester. Volunteers come and go.  However, with our infrastructure support your Association’s “institutional memory” will continue and backup storage for your data is constant.  It is our utmost concern to protect the security of your information.  

Just Ask Us

SBI Management provides services to all sizes of associations.  If you have a specific concern or need, ask us to solve the problem or find a venue or share a cup of coffee. We are versatile and knowledgeable.
