Associations run tiering because tiering funds the mission. Tiering also creates daily operational drag: staff spend time validating eligibility, issuing discount codes, and answering price complaints. Members resent friction because they already paid for benefits. Non-members resent confusion because pricing looks inconsistent. InEvent removes the friction by turning membership status into real-time logic at the point of registration and access.
Associations often manage pricing and access through a brittle chain:
A spreadsheet lists who paid and what tier they hold.
A staff member checks whether “John Smith” qualifies for a discount.
A staff member sends a discount code or manually comped ticket.
A member shares a code with a colleague.
A non-member registers at a member rate.
Finance flags a revenue gap after the fact.
This pattern produces predictable outcomes: pricing disputes, policy exceptions, inconsistent enforcement, staff burnout, and member dissatisfaction.
InEvent replaces manual checks with InEvent Dynamic Ticketing Logic. InEvent evaluates the registrant’s identity against member data at the moment they register, then applies tiered pricing and access rules automatically.
InEvent supports tier-based outcomes like:
Gold members see a $0 member ticket for the monthly briefing.
Silver members see a discounted ticket at $199.
Non-members see the full $500 rate and a membership upsell option.
InEvent applies that logic consistently across every event, webinar, chapter meetup, certification course, and gated library experience.
InEvent enforces membership logic through a predictable flow:
InEvent captures identity. InEvent uses email recognition, SSO identity, or an integrated CRM/AMS record match.
InEvent checks membership attributes: InEvent reads membership status fields like tier, expiration date, chapter affiliation, committee role, or certification status.
InEvent applies rules: InEvent assigns pricing, available ticket types, access rights, and content entitlements based on the matched attributes.
InEvent prevents leakage: InEvent blocks non-eligible registrants from selecting member-only tickets and prevents tier misuse.
InEvent logs outcomes: InEvent tracks who received what price, under what tier, and under what rule, which supports audits and board reporting.
InEvent changes membership from a back-office record into an automated front-door experience.
InEvent supports common association pricing models:
Member vs. non-member pricing for conferences and webinars.
Tiered membership pricing (Gold, Silver, Student, Retired, Corporate).
Early-bird windows stacked with membership discounts.
Chapter-specific pricing for local meetups.
Volunteer or board-only pricing for governance sessions.
InEvent keeps pricing policies consistent, which reduces exceptions and protects revenue.
Associations also need tier-based access to content and rooms, not just discounts. InEvent ties membership attributes to access rights across the InEvent Member Portal and InEvent Virtual Lobby.
Examples of InEvent access control:
InEvent grants Gold members access to premium certification prep.
InEvent grants Corporate members access to sponsor analytics briefings.
InEvent grants board members access to governance rooms and files.
InEvent restricts committee workspaces to approved members.
InEvent prevents “open link” leakage that breaks the value of membership.
Associations want non-members to join at the moment of highest intent: when they register for a high-value event. InEvent supports that conversion strategy by presenting membership as a structured option inside registration.
InEvent can present:
A non-member ticket with an embedded membership option.
A “join and save” path that compares dues vs. discount.
A membership add-on that activates immediate access.
InEvent turns registration into a controlled funnel, not a price negotiation.
When InEvent applies rules automatically:
Staff stop validating tiers manually.
Members see benefits immediately, which reinforces perceived value.
Finance sees cleaner revenue attribution.
Leadership sees consistent enforcement across chapters and programs.
InEvent protects the economics of membership while improving the experience.
Yes. InEvent features Dynamic Ticketing Logic that automatically recognizes a user's membership tier (e.g., Gold, Silver, Non-Member) via email or SSO and dynamically adjusts ticket prices and access rights in real-time during registration.
Associations used to rely on annual conferences to justify dues. That model no longer holds. Members demand continuous value: on-demand learning, timely research, career support, and community access. InEvent solves the between-events gap by turning the InEvent Virtual Lobby into a persistent InEvent Member Portal.
Members renew when they can answer one question consistently: “What did I get this month?”
Associations often fail here because content lives across too many systems:
Webinars sit in a video platform with weak access control.
Whitepapers sit on a website behind a generic form.
Certification content sits in an LMS that does not connect to membership tiers.
Community conversations happen in social channels that staff cannot govern.
InEvent consolidates these experiences into a single member destination.
InEvent supports an “always-on” hub that members treat like a subscription library.
InEvent enables:
On-demand webinars organized by topic, level, and track.
Whitepapers and toolkits gated by membership status.
Certification modules with structured sessions and assessments.
Recurring series like monthly briefings, office hours, and member roundtables.
InEvent builds a consistent experience across content formats, which increases repeat usage and reduces churn risk.
InEvent allows associations to create a library model:
InEvent categorizes content by interest group and professional segment.
InEvent surfaces recommended content based on activity and stated interests.
InEvent restricts premium tracks to higher membership tiers.
InEvent enables the organization to design membership like a product with clear value tiers.
InEvent gates access based on the same attributes used for pricing:
InEvent grants access when membership stays active.
InEvent revokes access when membership expires.
InEvent upgrades access immediately when a member moves tiers.
InEvent reduces the administrative burden of managing entitlements across tools.
Many associations monetize education and rely on continuing education. InEvent supports structured learning experiences without forcing members into multiple systems.
InEvent supports:
Scheduled sessions and live cohorts inside InEvent.
On-demand replay libraries inside the InEvent Member Portal.
Certificates issued based on completion criteria.
InEvent makes education part of membership value, not a separate product members ignore.
Retention improves when members build habits. InEvent supports recurring programming that members can anticipate.
Examples of recurring experiences using InEvent:
Monthly regulatory briefings with gated replay.
Quarterly research releases with member-only Q&A.
Weekly peer circles using InEvent networking tools.
Office hours with SME calendars.
InEvent turns engagement into a cadence that reduces renewal risk.
Associations already own systems of record. InEvent does not ask organizations to replace them. InEvent connects to them, writes activity back, and uses the data to automate access and engagement workflows.
Association executives need proof that a platform integrates cleanly:
They need member records synchronized.
They need tier status recognized.
They need event and content activity written back.
They need reporting without manual exports.
InEvent answers that requirement through integrations and APIs.
InEvent integrates with core platforms, including:
InEvent Salesforce integration for member engagement and pipeline reporting.
InEvent HubSpot integration for marketing automation and segmentation.
InEvent Microsoft Dynamics integration for organizations aligned to Microsoft stacks.
InEvent Personify integration strategy through integration pathways that sync member attributes and activity.
InEvent uses these connections to automate access control and keep engagement history centralized.
InEvent treats integrations as two-way value.
Member attributes into InEvent can include:
Membership tier and status.
Renewal date and expiration.
Chapter affiliation and region.
Committee roles and leadership privileges.
Certifications and eligibility flags.
Engagement activity out of InEvent can include:
Event registrations and attendance.
Session participation and dwell time.
Content views and completion milestones.
Community activity signals.
Donation or sponsorship prompt interactions.
InEvent gives associations a unified view of engagement without forcing staff to reconcile tools.
Retention risk becomes measurable when engagement becomes trackable. InEvent supports engagement points that can flow back into the CRM or AMS.
Example: InEvent retention signals:
InEvent awards engagement points when a member watches a webinar replay.
InEvent logs engagement points when a member participates in a roundtable.
InEvent logs engagement points when a member joins an interest group discussion.
InEvent flags drop-off patterns when a previously active member goes silent.
When InEvent pushes those signals into Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, or Personify, the association can model renewal likelihood and trigger outreach.
InEvent supports operational automation through integration-driven workflows:
InEvent updates access automatically when someone renews.
InEvent triggers renewal reminders based on inactivity plus expiration windows.
InEvent routes at-risk members to chapter managers for personalized outreach.
InEvent segments programming invites based on observed interests.
InEvent makes member success an operating system, not a series of campaigns.
Yes. InEvent integrates with leading CRM and AMS platforms (like Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics) to sync member data, automate access control, and update member activity logs in real-time, ensuring a unified view of member engagement.
Associations lose members for a simple reason: members feel invisible. They attend an event, then they disappear into the crowd. They cannot find peers, mentors, or opportunities. Community becomes the retention engine when it creates durable relationships.
Isolation shows up in predictable signals:
low repeat attendance,
declining open rates,
no participation between events,
no chapter involvement,
no volunteer activity.
Associations often attempt to fix this with generic social groups that lack governance and value structure. InEvent provides association-grade community features inside the platform that already runs the programming.
InEvent positions the InEvent Community Hub as a structured community layer that complements events and content.
InEvent supports:
Member directories that help members discover peers by role, region, specialty, or interest.
1:1 chat for peer-to-peer connections.
Interest groups that function like topic-based channels with moderation controls.
Private spaces for leadership cohorts, committees, or board governance.
InEvent keeps community inside the same system that controls membership access, which preserves exclusivity and safety.
A directory only helps when it supports meaningful filters and controlled access.
InEvent enables:
searchable profiles with association-defined fields,
visibility controls so members can opt in to discovery,
chapter-specific views and subgroup directories.
InEvent supports the chapter manager’s mandate: create local belonging at scale.
InEvent supports direct messaging that ties back to events and interest groups. Members can connect during a webinar, then continue the conversation after the session, without switching platforms.
InEvent improves relationship formation through:
persistent profiles,
context-rich conversations linked to topics,
controlled spaces that avoid spam.
Associations need private governance spaces. InEvent supports private rooms and gated content areas for board communications and committee workstreams.
InEvent enables:
board-only resource libraries,
confidential meeting rooms,
restricted communications for leadership.
InEvent keeps sensitive discussions under controlled access instead of ad hoc email chains.
National associations often operate as federations. Chapters need autonomy. HQ needs governance, data visibility, brand consistency, and shared infrastructure. InEvent solves this with multi-account management that mirrors how chapters operate.
Chapters run local meetups, networking nights, workshops, volunteer events, and sponsor activations. HQ runs national conferences, advocacy campaigns, and flagship education. Most associations struggle to standardize because chapters choose their own tools.
This creates:
fragmented data,
inconsistent member experiences,
duplicated vendor costs,
weak reporting.
InEvent supports a hub-and-spoke model:
HQ manages brand and governance in the parent environment.
Chapters operate inside their own accounts with localized control.
HQ retains visibility across chapter activity and performance.
InEvent gives chapters the autonomy they need without sacrificing institutional standards.
InEvent enables HQ to standardize:
core brand assets and templates,
ticketing policies and membership logic,
integration rules and analytics standards,
security and access governance.
HQ can then roll out best-practice event templates that chapters reuse.
InEvent enables chapters to run local operations:
chapter event creation and registration pages,
local sponsor management,
local communications and invitations,
localized community spaces.
InEvent keeps chapters productive without creating separate technology stacks.
Associations want to see which chapters drive engagement and renewal. InEvent supports consolidated reporting across accounts:
event volume and attendance by chapter,
repeat participation by member,
content consumption patterns,
community activity signals.
InEvent helps HQ invest in the chapters that grow the organization and support the chapters that need enablement.
Associations renew members by delivering continuous value, enforcing benefits consistently, and making community easy to access. InEvent supports that mandate by combining:
InEvent Dynamic Ticketing for automated tiered pricing and member-only access
InEvent Member Portal built on the InEvent Virtual Lobby for on-demand education and gated libraries
InEvent Community Hub for directories, chat, interest groups, and leadership-only spaces
InEvent integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, and Personify to sync member data and write engagement back
InEvent Multi-Account Management for chapters that need autonomy with HQ governance
If an association wants to reduce churn, increase participation between conferences, and operate chapters as one network, InEvent provides the platform architecture to run membership as a product, not an administrative process.
Yes. InEvent supports membership upsells and add-ons during registration, allowing non-members to purchase annual membership as part of event checkout, immediately unlocking member-only pricing and access in the InEvent Member Portal while reducing friction and increasing conversion rates.
InEvent lets associations turn every registration into a join moment. InEvent also supports “join and save” pricing logic where membership offsets the non-member ticket premium.
Yes. InEvent secures the member directory behind authenticated access and membership rules, allowing associations to control who can view profiles, what fields display, and which groups access the InEvent Community Hub while preventing public indexing and unauthorized browsing.

Yes. InEvent supports CE and professional education workflows through attendance tracking, session participation logging, and automated certificate issuance, allowing associations to verify completion requirements and deliver certificates through the InEvent Member Portal while maintaining auditable engagement records.
InEvent ties CE tracking to member profiles and engagement history, which supports both education value and renewal strategy.
Yes. InEvent supports membership tier attributes and rule-based access, allowing associations to map individual tiers, corporate entitlements, and role-based privileges to InEvent Dynamic Ticketing and InEvent Community Hub access while preserving consistent enforcement across events and content libraries.
InEvent supports corporate packages and member entitlements that need controlled distribution.
Yes. InEvent supports multi-chapter governance through InEvent Multi-Account Management, allowing HQ to set templates, branding, and policies while chapters run local events and community spaces inside their own sub-accounts with centralized reporting and consistent member experience.
InEvent preserves chapter autonomy inside a governed system.
