Engagement Marketing & Education for Associations from Constant Contact

Engagement marketing provider Constant Contact, best known for its email and event marketing features, has launched a new program for associations.

Organizations that join the program will receive discounts to the company’s suite of engagement tools – email, social, deals, events, etc. – as well as direct access to educational resources to teach best practices, marketing coaches to put those best practices in action, Constant Contact marketing tools, and perhaps most notable is an “association console” which can be used to track and manage the program.

While associations could likely get these offerings from anywhere, Constant Contact’s industry experience is what is noteworthy. Anyone looking to keep their association’s members, donors and even volunteers active and engaged might want to check it out – if only to use as a comparison to the systems they currently have in place.

“Constant Contact has long been committed to supporting associations, and we're very excited to offer this new program to help them attract new members, foster communication with existing members, and support members' marketing efforts,” said Alec Stern, vice president, strategic market development at Constant Contact. “Understanding how to market effectively is a critical to being successful, which is why we have made education a core component of the Association Program.”

Search engine optimization firm Beanstalk understands that performing good deeds is just good business. The SEO firm has launched their free SEO for charities initiative, wherein each month one website will be selected from a group of submissions and the charity or non-profit selected will receive free SEO services and/or consulting.

The winner will be chosen based on a variety of factors, including which is most deserving, can be helped the most and which has a strong desire to provide visitors with a good and informative experience on their website.

"We have to realize how privileged we are and remember to appreciate what we have and share what we can," said Beanstalk CEO Dave Davies. "Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in our lives and the stresses we all have but when we take a moment to think, I mean really think about how blessed we are, sometimes you can't help but be humbled. We are not a Fortune 500 company and we don't need to be to make a difference. We can do our part in our way and hopefully leave the world a better place than we found it."

Charities can now submit their applications for the free SEO services on the BeanStalk site.
