Professional community

A better listserv for a professional community

The tools on the market were either too expensive or missing what the community needed, so we built exactly what they were looking for.

The challenge

A professional membership community came to us frustrated. The listserv and community tools on the market didn’t fit:

  • Too expensive for a group their size
  • No single tool that paired group email with a real member directory
  • No way to tailor settings to how each of their groups worked
  • Paying for features they’d never use while still missing the ones they wanted
What we built

A lean custom community platform built around their needs and running on affordable, modern cloud hosting:

  • A group listserv that works reliably
  • A searchable member directory members rely on
  • Per-group configuration, including directory search filters tailored to each community
  • Built with privacy in mind, on low-cost cloud hosting
The result
Email + directoryListserv and member search in one tool
Per-group setupEach community configured to how it runs
Low-cost hostingModern low-cost hosting instead of enterprise pricing
