Affordable Business Websites for CAM/HOAs
HOA managers and community association boards have a big challenge in reaching, persuading and activating association members.
If what you do and want isn’t seen, promoted, nor celebrated and shared, it may not draw support from residents.
Traditionally, HOA/CAMs have been light on web marketing, however, you can unlock business value via a website that translates to association management success. And, integrated with ManageCasa™ platform, it is much more than vanity boost or branding statement. It gets real association business done.
Websites and Your Brand Image
What may have made you hold back previously was the cost of a fully developed association management website. Yes, residents and those outside the community can use a software portal for information, However, association websites are a more powerful, complementary, credible channel to create awareness, build quarum, and achieve other association goals.
In some states (e.g., Florida), laws require HOAs to have a publicly accessible website. And having a website integrated with your all in one association management platform is pure bliss.
Fortunately, ManageCasa™ offers a clean, manageable, and cost-effective website solution which you’ll discover provides numerous services and benefits. Learn more about an Association Website here.
Empowering Communications and Promoting Value to the Community
Persuasion is important. A HOA/CAM website might be your best channel to get your messaging (the way you need it) out there to everyone you must reach.
An HOA/Community Association website has the potential to connect meaningfully with members and get them on board with your initiatives. Websites carry the power and prestige of the WWW and the Internet. Web pages are visible to the public, conveying sincerity, trust, support and a shared experience.
Marketing Websites are visual too, with graphics, photos, and videos which engage members‘ minds and hearts. It’s where community cleanup events, parties, charity fundraisers, awards, arts and crafts fairs, and meetings come to life. It’s where social media posts should channel audiences to, for more immersion in your association.
And to some extent, the website shows you care about your community.
