Proposal Submission System

Many organizations which have annual/quarterly conference conduct a 'call for presenters', asking their members or people in their field or industry to submit proposals for presentations, training sessions, events, and more.

This process can be difficult and the proposals go through a review process to determine which will be accepted and approved for inclusion in the conference.

This system is a first-generation attempt to automate this process via the web. Many thanks to Terry Osborn and the International Society for Language Studies for the initial design for this system.

Proposals are submitted online by their presenters; tracked through different stages of screening, scoring; and ultimately some are selected. This process is somewhat fixed at this time, but please feel free to ask for customizations.

Live Member Launch Meetings

Chamber Nation and the Help Network Company Staff want to be sure we get off on the right foot. We offer use our live video podcast and training center to help you hold successful launch meetings.

SOFTWARE-AS-A-SERVICE (SAAS)

We are a "Software as a Service" (SaaS) provider. This assures our customers the best possible service, the ability to adjust software flow quickly and, in most cases, gain access to support on an immediate basis.

You will find that our system’s response and record saving is very fast, minimizing data response time and maximizing solutions.

Our systems do not require our customers to order special services. However if you want to increase your efficiency or if you would like a new module developed for your program, we can provide this for you at a very low cost.

You have our 100% FREE telephone support for your staff, volunteers and members. This is an excellent system with an expert support staff on call.

Mobile Publishing System

Our Chamber Nation and Membership Management Systems are designed to promote small to large communities via our online Chamber Broadcasting System©. These systems gather content through our unique Location Carousel© process, so that communities we serve truly work online.

We've now expanded the Location Carousel© system to power mobile apps for both Apple iPhone® and Google Android® mobile devices.

These applications are available for the entire Chamber of Commerce community and now for individual members as well.
This System is Easy for Members to Update
The last thing a busy business owner needs is another technology to manage.

For this reason we designed the Mobile Publishing System as an extension of what many members already use to manage their online advertising network.

Members simply contact us for support (as they do now), or they login to their Chamber of Commerce website to manage their system.

Legislative Action Center

We are pleased to now provide our Chamber Nation customers with a formal Legislative Action Center.

  • Edit/maintain a list of legislators (House and Senate)
  • Set up an legislative items (the issue at hand), begin and end dates, the details about the requests (why people should contact their legislator) then the suggested subject and message text, house/senate/both, multiple selection (whether you want people to be able to send to multiple legislators).
  • You can post this url on your website or send out in an email to your contacts.
  • As people respond, the system will track who has contacted which legislator.
