Do you need assistance with your annual meeting, an improved chapter website, or help managing you member database? Maybe all you need is someone on your team that can help with everything you don’t have time to do. Whatever the need, Meetings Northwest can help you focus on what matters most – your mission.
We have had clients experience a 25% increase in just one year with Meetings Northwest’s pro-active membership renewal process and online processing. In addition, we have had clients see their renewal period cut in half, making budgeting and planning much easier! We can assist your membership director in the annual membership drive and market your chapter. Meetings Northwest will also maintain the database and assist in keeping membership lists current.
Websites serve as a recruitment tool, provide education to members, and can act as a forum for information exchange. With experience in both html and WordPress, Meetings Northwest can design your website to be used as a marketing tool while also being a central source for industry and chapter information. We will also maintain your website with regular updates on board meetings, conferences, and upcoming training seminars. We will post your latest newsletters or e-mail updates and assist members with any questions.
Meetings Northwest can assist your organization in filing your IRS Form 990. We can also help with state annual reports filing requirements as well as assist your organization’s accounting. Let Meetings Northwest take care of all membership dues, meeting and training registrations and payments.
As an added advantage, Meetings Northwest can provide an office presence for your organization; a place where your members or clients can phone if they have questions or need assistance.

We will put together a design plan that fits your event and budget, market it, and manage it. We will maximize your web presence with a social media campaign and event website. We can design save the date cards, invitations, and posters. We will reserve the event venue, room block, food, and audio/video, help reserve event VIPs, special speakers, and find appropriate and desirable auction items (we can even design an auction catalog if needed)!
Here is just a small glimpse of what we do behind the scenes: work with you to design a special theme for your specific event, take care of any special needs for VIPS, manage event sales, manage sponsors and vendors, order and distribute sponsor gifts, design and print all event materials, manage donations and auction items, provide onsite support, manage donor thank you letters/certificates, and last but not least, we can provide event accounting reports. There you have it: a successful, memorable, profitable and mission focused event that will have people saving the date for next year!
