Scenario

Cakeheads fosters a community of (extremely!) creative professionals, but its website and e-commerce tools were working against its efforts. The association was using WordPress as its CMS, and it had been using the WooCommerce plugin to sell memberships — without a true CRM, the administrative burden was becoming too much, and the site was not providing members with a truly valuable and engaging experience.

Solution

Through an assessment project, BackOffice Thinking evaluated the association’s existing technology as well as designed and identified the key areas needing improvement. In order to provide a better member experience and expand its membership, a high-level approach was developed to tackle the main pain points. By migrating to Drupal and adopting Neon CRM as an integrated membership management platform, the Cakeheads site could present a clear path for new members to join and provide a portal for members to engage more fully with each other.

Success

Cakehead’s members now have a user-friendly portal where they can log in and access all of their benefits. In one place, they can discover new projects, recipes, and stories from the blog, manage their accounts, and access tutorials. Meanwhile, Cakeheads staff can now focus their efforts on showcasing creative cake designs and attracting new members.
