Many people associate Rubic with sports clubs and football clubs. But did you know that our membership system is just as well suited to residents' associations, voluntary organisations, friends' associations, local history societies, trade associations, art and theatre groups and boat clubs?
As long as you have a group of members who take part in recurring activities, you could benefit from a system that makes it easier to manage both operations and members. If you need to communicate with your members, and perhaps even send out a membership fee now and then – you've come to the right place.
Rubic is a good fit for…
Bands
Even though a band doesn't always have that many members, there is still equipment, rehearsal space and membership fees to keep track of. Often there will also be everything from seminars and band trips to flea markets.
With our resource allocation, you can easily keep track of who will use which rooms, and when. Bands often use the premises of the nearest primary school. There may be many others using the same premises. In Rubic, you get a full overview of when the gym is free for marching practice, and you can notify both children and parents and guardians if there are last-minute changes.
The LagetMitt app is also a good fit for young musicians and their parents. Here, parents can keep track of when their children have rehearsals. In addition, both drop-offs and pick-ups can be coordinated.
The following modules are a good fit for bands:
- Rubic Medlem
- Rubic Påmelding
- Rubic LagetMitt
- Rubic Funksjonær
Local history societies
There are 600 local history societies in Norway, 381 of which have around 72,000 members. Local history societies spark interest in and awareness of local history and cultural heritage, and play an important role in our society. But local history societies also have members who pay membership fees, need to send out notices of annual general meetings and need a platform for managing and registering members. This is where Rubic comes in. Up-to-date member lists make everyday life easier for everyone, and free up time for what you are passionate about.
All national federations
In Norway, we have 54 different national federations for various sports – everything from the corporate sports federation to the wrestling, fencing, climbing and motorsport federations. Rubic has had great success simplifying everyday life for clubs and other sports clubs, and has extensive experience digitalising the member registers of many different clubs.
All associations that benefit from digitalisation
We find that the greatest need of residents' associations, friends' associations and other special-interest associations is being able to communicate with their members. They rely on being able to easily send emails and text messages to the right members to inform them about events, meetings and changes. With Rubic, you can always have up-to-date member lists and communicate with all your members at once, all in one place.
The days of Excel spreadsheets that aren't always up to date and sending text messages to every member by hand are over.
Other types of associations and groups that run more efficiently with Rubic include:
- dog clubs
- book clubs
- boat clubs
- choirs
- umbrella organisations
- housing co-operatives
- trade associations
- cabin owners' and residents' associations
- vehicle clubs
More benefits of digitalising your association
Going digital can also help you attract more younger members. Many associations struggle to reach young people, largely because they get their information from digital channels. We at Rubic can also help your association set up simple websites so you can market yourselves to a wider audience. Contact us by email if that could be something for you!
With a website, you can promote yourselves and what you do. You also get the chance to showcase all the benefits of being a member of your association in particular.
