Mantrax recently proposed a CMS (Content Management System) for a National Association facing numerous pain points. Members were frustrated with the online experience. The existing member portal has frustrated members due to usability issues, navigation challenges, and a need for more intuitive features. This dissatisfaction hampers member engagement and overall perception of the association’s value.
To find a resolution, the following projects were initiated:
01
The recent stagnant membership growth is partly due to a subpar member portal. Attracting and retaining new members is challenging without a user-friendly platform that boosts engagement and interaction.
02
Emergence of alternative platforms for key functions like recruiting and visibility poses a major threat. Members may be drawn to rival platforms with better experiences and solutions, risking membership loss.
03
Inefficiencies in the current member portal have raised operational costs. Members frequently seek staff support, adding workload and expenses, and diverting resources from strategic initiatives.
In Phase 1, we facilitated member feedback collection through a neutral platform. This input was then combined with system diagnosis and external research, comprising six functional analysis activities.

Phase 2 of the modernization journey represents a pivotal step towards aligning the association’s digital ecosystem with contemporary standards. By focusing on user experience, linguistic inclusivity, data security, and advanced functionality, the organization is poised to set new benchmarks in member engagement and digital transformation. This strategic initiative underscores the commitment to excellence and responsiveness, ensuring that the member portal remains an indispensable asset as the organization continues to evolve.
The second phase of the member portal modernization initiative encompasses a comprehensive development scope that aims to revolutionize the digital landscape of the organization.
