WHY SUPPORTERBASE?
After consulting with activists, we were looking for a platform that could support their activism in various critical ways:
- Having email capabilities that would allow multiple users to access an inbox
- A way to grow your membership and email list seamlessly
- Streamlining the events process, that allows natural promotion of events
- Recognise the activists who are a part of our movement and update our lists accordingly
- Expand communications away from just emails to SMS and calls
As your group (and broader connected community) gets bigger and bigger, it’s hugely helpful to have all these functions in the one place, where the information is accessible and transparent to any group member who has completed the privacy training and received a login. SupporterBase is a platform trusted by peer organisations such as ACF, GetUp, AYCC, and Yes23, which reassured us of its capability and reliability.
