Florida Society of Clinical Oncology Scaled Membership with Confidence

Discover how the Florida Society of Clinical Oncology (FLASCO) moved beyond spreadsheets to streamline operations, reduce errors, and support rapid membership growth with GrowthZone.

Supporting Rapid Growth Without the Growing Pains

As membership quickly expanded, FLASCO needed a more reliable and efficient way to manage data and programs without risking the integrity of their workflows.

Member Management

Moving away from spreadsheets helped reduce the risk of data loss and corruption while providing a more dependable system.

Event Engagement

Streamlined registration and event tools made it easier to manage events from start to finish, improving productivity for staff.

Reduced Errors

Automation replaced time-consuming manual tasks, helping the team work more efficiently with fewer mistakes.

Membership Growth

With administrative work reduced, staff gained more time to focus on member retention, growth, and expanding programs.

The Challenge

The Florida Society of Clinical Oncology experienced rapid growth, increasing membership by 88% in just three years. While this growth was a positive sign, it quickly exposed the limitations of their existing systems.

Managing member data and programs through a large Excel spreadsheet became increasingly difficult. Past issues with spreadsheet failures and data corruption added to the concern, especially with more than 2,800 member records at stake.

The Solution

After evaluating several AMS platforms, FLASCO chose GrowthZone AMS for its capabilities and flexibility.

Despite initial concerns about maintaining their existing workflows, the transition proved to be a positive experience. The GrowthZone team provided guidance and reassurance throughout onboarding, supporting FLASCO with conference calls, training videos, and feature demonstrations to ensure a smooth implementation.

The Results

With GrowthZone AMS in place, FLASCO quickly saw improvements in efficiency and accuracy. Automated processes reduced manual tasks and helped minimize errors, allowing staff to work more productively.

Event management, in particular, became significantly easier. The team was able to manage events more effectively from planning through follow-up, increasing overall productivity. Julie Newberry, FLASCO’s Director of Operations, said "We especially appreciate the registration component of GrowthZone. It was amazing how productive we were in managing the event from start to finish."

As they continue to adopt more features, the FLASCO team now has more time to focus on what matters most—growing and supporting their membership. With streamlined processes in place, they’ve already expanded the number of events and programs they offer.

We were very nervous about possibly losing the functionality and flexibility of our workflows. However, the GrowthZone team was understanding, responsive, and reassuring throughout the transition.
