Everything is in the hands of your members
Yellowstone makes it simple to put all of your organization's information into the pockets of your members.
Your Organization in the 21st Century
On average people spend nearly four hours a day on their phones*. Ninety percent of that time is spent using an app. Is your organization positioned to take full advantage of mobile applications?
Engagement On The Go
Our focus is helping organizations engage with their members wherever they are. A mobile app gives you the ability to engage with your members in ways that text messages and websites can't. A Yellowstone-powered mobile application provides your organization a robust toolset to create and manage rich content while providing a dynamic, customized app experience for your members. Together, this increases membership activity, keeping your members informed and engaged with your organization.
A core feature of Yellowstone is the ability to target content to groups of members. This is accomplished both automatically – Yellowstone figures out what content a specific member is most interested in seeing – and manually through the use of targeted push notifications, local chapter access and more.
This is your organization in the 21st century.
