York Builders Association Reduced Costs

Discover how the York Builders Association leveraged GrowthZone AMS to simplify workflows, reduce operational costs, and focus on providing valuable programs and services to its members.

Upgraded Tools for a Growing Association

York Builders Association needed a platform that could manage memberships, programs, accounting, and website content all in one place, while remaining cost-efficient for a small staff.

Streamlined Operations

York Builders Association eliminated multiple disconnected systems, simplifying workflows for staff and improving overall efficiency.

Centralized Solution

The association now has a single, user-friendly system that manages memberships, programs, accounting, and website content.

Responsive Support

GrowthZone provided professional, hands-on assistance during onboarding, ensuring staff could quickly adopt the software.

Enhanced Experience

With intuitive tools for website updates, event management, and member communications, staff can focus on delivering valuable programs.

The Challenge

When Laurie Lourie joined the York Builders Association as Executive Vice President, she brought 22 years of association experience and a focus on continuous improvement. She quickly recognized that a dues-based organization must maintain cost-efficient systems to deliver meaningful value to its members. Laurie identified several costly inefficiencies, including the use of separate systems for managing programs, accounting, and member data. With limited staff, relying on outsourced technical support would have been expensive, making it critical to find an affordable, all-in-one association management software (AMS) solution.

The Solution

After evaluating multiple software options, Laurie found that GrowthZone AMS met all of the association’s requirements. “The features of GrowthZone AMS checked all of our boxes,” she said. Beyond the platform’s robust capabilities, the onboarding process stood out. Laurie noted that the team provided “efficient and professional technical support throughout the process,” making the transition smooth and ensuring that staff could quickly adopt the system. The platform gave staff the flexibility to manage day-to-day operations efficiently while supporting long-term growth.

The Results

Since implementing GrowthZone, the York Builders Association has experienced measurable improvements in efficiency and member service. “We appreciate the ability to make updates to our website via the GrowthZone CMS as well as having access to their knowledgeable customer service representatives,” Laurie said. Streamlined workflows and reduced costs have allowed staff to focus on programs that support ethical building practices and help members achieve the “American Dream” of homeownership.

The features of GrowthZone AMS checked all of our boxes. The fact that the onboarding experience was excellent and included efficient and professional technical support throughout the process was a bonus.
