As a result, ASA has become the go-to source to cultivate leadership, advance knowledge, and strengthen the skills of its members and others who work with and on behalf of older adults. ASA sees its responsibility as a leader in advocating for the necessary change to address issues in aging.  \nASA was disappointed and frustrated that its previous software systems—association management software (AMS) and learning management software (LMS) didn’t integrate—describing the situation as a “nightmare of data” that ultimately couldn’t communicate. Additionally, with over 5,000  \nmembers and multiple membership types, ASA needed a strong data management system and customer relationship management (CRM) platform.  \nASA believes it has found the right software fit in NetForum, with native integration with Freestone LMS. ASA chose to stay in the same family of products to scale its organization, launch its goals, and make its dreams come true.  \nIntuitive and user-friendly systems enable staff to perform daily tasks with ease and efficiency  \nSolutions  \n“Taking data out of a system that was not a true CRM and mapping it to a real CRM was difficult, but it was a beneficial process from our perspective. The NetForum and Freestone teams came together to give staff hope that our dreams could come true.”  \nJacquelyn J. Bennett  \nChief Operating Officer & Chief of Staff American Society on Aging  \n Summary  \nWith a staff of 12 and no internal IT, everyone at ASA shares responsibility for the platforms, owning the organization’s data, and the use of efficient processes. ASA chose NetForum and its optimized adoption, which provided ASA with a templated implementation and outof-the-box modules to onboard within five months. The organization wanted to stay within the same family for its  \nChallenges  \nWith ASA’s previous software systems, the platforms didn’t speak to each other and the simplest of things like easily renewing a member couldn’t be accomplished. There were huge limitations on what the systems could do versus what ASA staff needed the platforms to do. ASA staff found the old technology to be very limiting which resulted in a dozen spreadsheets.  \nnative integration features for syncing data and tracking certification and credits, so ASA chose Freestone learning management system because the platform exceeded the organization’s LMS needs.  \nASA staff are excited to see where these platforms take them in the future.  \n Results  \nAfter selecting NetForum and Freestone, the LMS implementation had to go quickly due to an important webinar date. The Freestone implementation team met the deadline and with the NetForum optimized implementation, the AMS platform was up and running quickly after.  \nWhile still early in the relationship, the promise of the native integration of NetForum and Freestone to make it easy for ASA to hit member engagement goals, converting non-members into members through ASA webinars, and develop new pricing strategies for their products is encouraging. Thus far, ASA is greatly pleased with the ease and user-friendliness of NetForum and Freestone.  \nASA regularly hosts webinars with 1,000+ attendees. With their limited tech stack, it was difficult to further engage and convert those non-member attendees into members.  \nASA staff knew they needed new technology to advance their goals, so they chose NetForum and Freestone.  \n“Since adopting NetForum, ASA staff can dream a little bit more. These things can really come true.
