Newsletters - for members and non members - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

-

hi, i'm looking @ transferring limited static site joomla , there's few things i'm still trying head around.  maintaining distribution list email newsletters being 1 example.  organisation membership based (a trade union) interested in communicating non-member supporters , potential members.  having such people sign on site fine, when comes our members head starts spinning little. 

i'm concerned creating duplicate database on site of our offline membership database, , trying keep 2 in sync.  best solution can come load names , email addresses of members site's database , ensure our administration people advise me of every amendment make offline database (new members, resigned members, new email addresses etc) can update site's database.  i'd think there's way tag people members or non-members , avoid duplicate records (i.e. members sign via site).

i'm not sure if i'm being clear, thought in forum might have had similar issues , have thoughts on it.

cheers,

jason

jason,

ah, problem we've worked our non-profit , association clients many time.  struggle keep online , offline database difficult, , of our organizations provide them pros/cons both, , ever hybrid best choice.

really, you've got think going towards small crm system, open source packages civicrm or democracy in action.  these take place of offline database, , both can integrate directly joomla web site members can sign up, change information, see directory of other members, in web site.

it's challange, think through roadmap of going online database.  think you'll find opens world of options org.

best,
ryan
