Associations

Associations play a vital role in connecting members, advancing industries, and supporting professional growth. Whether you represent a trade group, a professional society, or a member-driven nonprofit, your mission depends on technology that supports engagement, insight, and long-term sustainability.

Fíonta partners with associations of all types to design, implement, and support Salesforce solutions that strengthen relationships, streamline operations, and create lasting value. Our team brings broad experience across the association landscape, along with deep expertise in legal and medical sectors.

Association Needs

Support for the Full Member Journey

From onboarding to renewal, members expect a seamless and personalized experience. We help associations manage the full membership lifecycle, including engagement tracking, segmentation, and retention strategies—all in a single, connected system.

Continuing Education and Credential Management

Whether it’s CLE, CME, or custom credentials, your members rely on education to advance their careers. We support continuing education workflows, credit tracking, and integrations with learning platforms to ensure a cohesive experience for learners and staff alike.

Credentialing portals don’t have to be painful

Committees, Chapters, and Volunteer Engagement

Volunteer leadership is the backbone of many associations. We help manage committee structures, nominations, and participation tracking, making it easier to support active member involvement and leadership development.

Events That Connect and Inform

Conferences, webinars, and regional events play a key role in member value. We help track registrations, manage speakers and schedules, and connect event data to member profiles for a more complete view of engagement.

Communications That Build Relationships

Members expect relevant, timely communication. We help associations deliver personalized messaging across email, campaigns, and engagement journeys using Salesforce Marketing Cloud and Account Engagement (Pardot).

Data That Supports Strategic Decisions

With the right data in hand, associations can better understand what members value and where to invest. We help you design dashboards and reports that support board reporting, operational planning, and member experience strategies.

What our clients are saying

Los Angeles Conservancy

Fíonta has that ideal combination of exceptional technical skill and outstanding customer service. The consultant I worked with dove right in, figuring out a system he didn't originally implement. His analytical skills are amazing, and he quickly identified the right solution for a variety of issues...he explained everything to me in a way I could understand.

Free The Slaves

We hired Fíonta to overhaul our Salesforce after a botched transition from Raiser's Edge. Right from the get-go, the Fíonta team has taken time to understand our needs and respond accordingly. They are very quick to get back to us, and always let us guide the conversation and set priorities while still using their expertise to keep us on track.

Databases can be really scary for nonprofits like ours. We don't have dedicated database analysts on staff, so this kind of project requires a lot of trust. That's one great thing about Fíonta—you can trust them with your data and your nonprofit's future.

I have been doing this line of work for over 25 years. I have never encountered such an exceptional firm as Fíonta...we had an aggressive timeline, but at no time did Fíonta make it feel like it was aggressive.
