Background:

Clubs WA is a pivotal non-profit association dedicated to fostering a vibrant club culture across Western Australia. With a focus on supporting community clubs through advocacy, education, and sustainable practices, Clubs WA plays a crucial role in promoting social and community values. As a hub for club management committee members and government stakeholders, they ensure that clubs operate effectively within the legal and social framework of the region.

Challenge:

Operating as a non-profit, Clubs WA faces the dual challenges of limited resources and a high demand for community development. The organisation required innovative solutions to amplify their impact, improve operational efficiencies, and engage more deeply with a diverse audience, from local clubs to government ministers.

Digital Engagement: Our team revitalized Clubs WA’s digital footprint, including a weekly EDM newsletter with an exceptional 40% open rate, and dynamic social media presence across Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Lead Generation and Conversion Funnel: We established a structured lead-gen and sales conversion funnel, aligning with the principles of modern marketing to nurture leads effectively.

Event Management: Oversight of an annual calendar featuring major metropolitan and regional events, enhancing visibility and engagement.

Operational Tools: Implementation of a CRM system and a service ticket process streamlined member interactions, improving response times and service quality.

• Enhanced professionalism and increased readership of all publications.
• Significant growth in sponsorship dollars and sponsor retention.
