Results as a Service for Associations

We fix the process.

Process before technology./Results before projects.

We connect the systems you already own, repair the data underneath, and automate the repeatable work, so your team spends its week on members, not on re-keying forms.

We are expert in

The work underneath the member experience

Six things we do well, drawn from fifty years in the association sector. Each one removes a manual job your team should not be doing by hand.

Systems integration

We integrate systems. We know your AMS. We understand your finance system. We build LMS integrations. We connect payments. We wire up websites. We map the data between them.

Data repair and reconciliation

We clean member data. We match records. We reconcile payments. We know iMIS data. We understand your chart of accounts. We hunt down duplicates. We fix what drifted apart.

Process automation

We automate renewals. We know reminders. We understand approvals. We handle authentication. We do single sign-on. We run the weekly reconciliation. We remove the manual steps.

Member portals and self-service

We build member portals. We know self-service. We do event registration. We understand the member journey. We handle logins. We surface documents. We open the front door.

Reporting and board insight

We build board packs. We know the numbers. We understand retention. We report on revenue. We track membership. We surface the trends. We answer the board.

Practical AI

We apply practical AI. We surface patterns. We know your knowledge base. We answer staff questions. We understand your content. We automate the routine. We keep a human in the loop.

We use these tools

We work in your stack, not around it

We meet the platforms you have already invested in. No rip and replace as an opening move.

We understand these organisations

Associations are the only thing we do

Small teams, a careful board, a tight budget and members who expect more every year. 3DN has been accelerating associations since 2010.

Fluent in your world, not just your software

We know members. We understand education. We know CPD. We get events. We know conferences. We understand renewals. We get committees. We know accreditation. We understand non-dues revenue. We get awards nights. We know chapters and branches. We understand the board.

Professional bodies

Membership, CPD and accreditation for a profession that expects to be recognised.

Peak industry groups

Advocacy and member services for an industry, where non-dues revenue matters.

Regulators

Registers, compliance and defensible records that have to stand up to scrutiny.

Learned societies

Journals, events and a community of practice held together by a very small team.

We deliver these outcomes

The numbers our work is judged on

Not projects delivered. Hours given back, revenue recovered and questions answered before the board has to ask twice.

90%

Less manual renewal chasing

Automated reminders and online payment take the office out of the renewal loop, so staff no longer chase cheques member by member.

A fortnight
to an afternoon

To produce the membership report

Reporting that used to take two weeks of pulling spreadsheets together now runs from one connected source in a single sitting.

+20%

More renewals completed online

A clear self-service front door lifts the share of members who renew without staff involvement, and keeps more of them from going quiet.

~200

Office calls avoided each month

When members can update details and find documents themselves, roughly two hundred how-do-I calls a month simply stop coming in.

A one-hour
board pack

Built from live data, not memory

The board pack assembles itself from current numbers, so the night before a meeting is no longer a scramble across four systems.

Zero
re-keying

One record, entered once

With the website, AMS and finance connected, a member detail typed once appears everywhere it is needed, and stops drifting out of sync.

You need us because

If any of these sound like your week, we should talk

These are the ones we hear most. Each one is a process problem wearing a technology costume.

01

Your systems don't talk to each other.

One member, multiple names and addresses in multiple systems. What could go wrong?
02

Renewals depend on someone remembering to chase them.

Revenue waits for no person... except Narelle, who does membership.
03

Your best people spend their week re-keying PDF forms.

You hired them for judgement and member relationships, not for data entry.
04

The board asks a simple question and the answer takes a week.

The data exists. It just lives in four systems that were never introduced to each other.
05

Members go quiet and nobody notices until they leave.

By the time the report runs, the lapse is already three months old.
06

Your website is a brochure your members cannot log into.

Every 'can you update my details' email is a process you have not built yet.
These six are our pick. Spin to draw others from the library of .

Tell us what is holding your team back.

No slide deck, no discovery invoice. A straight conversation about the work underneath, and whether we are the right people to fix it.
