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.

Deep Expertise With Legal and Medical Associations

Fíonta has long-standing partnerships with legal and medical associations that require sophisticated credentialing, regulatory alignment, and complex governance. We understand the nuances of these sectors and bring tested solutions to each engagement.

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.

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.

Rebuilding Backend Systems for Scale and Speed

The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) represents a diverse membership of pharmacists, healthcare practitioners, and students, all working toward improving patient outcomes and managing medication therapies for nearly 300 million Americans. To keep pace with growing digital demands and evolving user expectations, AMCP partnered with Fíonta to modernize its website infrastructure.

Aligning People, Processes, and Platforms

Health-ISAC offers a trusted community for health sector stakeholders to share physical and cyber threat intelligence, best practices, and resources. As the organization grew in reach and complexity, it faced persistent technical challenges and needed to improve staff workflows, member engagement, and event processes. Health-ISAC partnered with Fíonta to assess and refine its existing Fonteva and Salesforce implementation. The goal was to resolve legacy issues, reduce manual processes, and make better use of the tools already in place.

What our clients are saying

I appreciated that the team was also willing to meet us where we were at— if we wanted to understand more about the backend, they were willing to explain and did so in a way that was accessible for different skill levels. BAYCAT
Fíonta has been a terrific partner with us in our multi-stage process of adopting Salesforce with a complex data model and many home-grown workflows. They’ve been highly accommodating of our own processes and constraints, including when we’ve opted to do some work in-house. Their team has been great to work with. Telluride Association
They demonstrated an understanding of nonprofit needs and displayed a willingness to accommodate our budget and schedule. All of the staff...were incredibly professional and knowledgeable about Salesforce. I enjoyed the time the database engineer took to understand our particular Salesforce instance. I'd recommend Fíonta to everyone! Institute for Policy Studies
Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (formerly Pardot) has been really helpful in terms of the automated emails, engagement paths, and one-on-one emails we could set up for routine requests. ACDA
Fíonta was brought on to help with a daunting and ambitious project: creating a cutting-edge and text-based Salesforce solution that helps bring fair access to justice for marginalized immigrants. In mere weeks, we succeeded in spite of all the unforeseen challenges blazing a new trail towards equitable justice for all. Mobile Pathways
We were completely unfamiliar with Salesforce and how we could fully utilize it. The team was instrumental in keeping the project on track by providing a full scope of work, making suggestions, timely budget updates, addressing any questions, and providing solutions to issues or training when necessary.
