JourneyCARE or Wild Apricot?

Wild Apricot has announced a 25% price increase for all tiers, starting with your first renewal after April 1, 2023. If your Board intends to explore alternatives, I encourage you to consider JourneyCARE.

JourneyCARE is our own software platform, launched in mid-2021 to address gaps we've noticed that our clients experience in their traditional membership software. In comparison to Wild Apricot, you'll find JourneyCARE to have more modern features and if you have more than 250 contacts, costs less.

We're currently offering two transition packages specifically for Wild Apricot customers.

Option 1: 100% Done-for-You

This is our "typical" set-up where we'd meet with you to do the planning, create a completely custom and modernized website, handle all of the set-up for you, then train your administrators to run the software.

What to Budget:

$5500 - $7500 for one-time cost (based on the scope of what you need set up)

$97/month or $997/year (begins when you're ready to launch)

Option 2: Self-Paced with Support THIS SPECIAL OFFER IS CLOSED.

This is a special package that we're offering for smaller organizations that need to replace Wild Apricot but don't have the financial reserves available to allow for a full custom build of JourneyCARE.

With this transition package, you get:

Website Template
Membership Area Template
Email Template
Payment Form
Automation for What Happens When People Pay
Launch Email with Transition Instructions for Members

PLUS 4 private, one-on-one onboarding sessions.

Onboarding Session #1:

We'll teach you how to edit the website.

Onboarding Session #2:

We'll check your payment form, connect your payment methods, and make sure your payment automation is set up correctly.

Onboarding Session #3:

We'll explain how to create and organize custom fields, then review your data before you import.

Onboarding Session #4:

We'll do one final check of everything before you Go Live and then help you publish your site to its final domain.

Note: Your JourneyCARE account will be full featured. It is just the set-up that is streamlined so that you can get up and running most quickly without a lot of fuss over features that aren't urgent.
