Membership organizations often use secure online member portals to share information with members, centralize event calendars and online registration, allow members to self-manage their involvement and interests, and permit members to share resources and collaborate with each other. We designed and built a Member Portal for an association to manage their membership and content.
‍
The portal was powered by a custom built CRM integration so the content and user management was seamlessly handled by organizational staff, keeping security and access control at the top of the design.

Inkling led the stakeholder research, ux strategy and design, graphic design and full-stack development of the custom Member Portal. The Portal features five main navigational components where information could be securely shared with membership, offer self-management of member company information and encourage involvement across initiatives and topic areas.

The Green Tomorrow Foundation is a fictional organization used for this case study.

Onboarding

The Member Portal access was strictly controlled by the organization’s CRM, which sent each user an invite and activation email. Through the onboarding process users could confirm their contact information, set their passwords and get a preview of the Portal’s primary offerings.

Stakeholder Interviews & UX Design

To ensure the Member Portal equally served the organization and membership, we led extensive stakeholder interviews with both parties to ensure the Portal solved the needs for everyone. With a focus on improving current communications, centralizing content and connecting back to the organization’s CRM, our UX design engineered solutions to define the design and development process.
