Cartagena Members

Structured member operations for small teams with big ambitions

Most membership organisations run on three to five administrative staff handling everything from events to invoicing to member enquiries. Member data lives in spreadsheets, event systems, and email. Follow-up is person-dependent. Members leave quietly. Cartagena Members replaces fragmented tools with one platform for member dialogue, fees, events and follow-up, built on Dynamics 365.

Challenges & Solutions

Challenge

Knowledge lives in people, not systems

When a key employee is on leave, the organisation loses its institutional memory. Contact history, member preferences and follow-up routines exist in inboxes and heads, not in a shared system.

Solution

One shared member record with full relationship history, contact log and activity overview. The organisation owns the member relationship, not individual employees.

Challenge

Members leave without anyone noticing

Attrition rarely happens suddenly. Members gradually stop attending events, opening emails and engaging, months before they formally leave. Without activity tracking, these signals go unnoticed.

Solution

Activity-based alerts when members become less active. Structured follow-up sequences for onboarding, renewal and re-engagement, so no member falls through the cracks.

Challenge

Fee administration consumes the team

Invoicing, fee reminders, deduction file processing, reconciliation and reporting consume hours every week, often handled by one or two people in spreadsheets.

Solution

Automate invoicing, renewals, reminders and reporting, freeing your team to focus on what matters.

Challenge

Systems that don't talk to each other

Fragmented data across different platforms creates inefficiencies.

Solution

Built on Dynamics 365 with ready-made integrations to ERP, accounting and payment systems.

Competitors and differentiation: Cartagena Medlem

Many membership systems are built as closed niche solutions with limited integration capabilities and little flexibility over time.

A market in change

That often works well at first, but becomes demanding when the organisation wants to:

  • automate processes
  • improve the member experience
  • gain better insight from data
  • integrate membership data with the rest of the organisation

At the same time, members today expect modern digital services such as self-service, mobile access, automated communication and fast response times.

Why Cartagena Member

Cartagena Member is built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Microsoft Power Platform.

That means the organisation gets a modern platform that can be integrated with the rest of the business, including Microsoft 365, Teams, Power BI and finance systems, not an isolated membership system.

For many organisations, this is an important difference.

Instead of building up several separate systems and databases, member data, communication, activities and reporting can be brought together on a single platform.

Standardised, but flexible

A common challenge with membership systems is the choice between:

  • a rigid standard product
  • or expensive custom development

Cartagena Member is developed to balance the two.

The solution includes ready-made processes for membership organisations, while the platform provides the flexibility to adapt work processes, automation and integrations over time.

This makes it possible to evolve the solution in step with the organisation's needs, without starting from scratch.
