Is Sharing Event Information Eating up Your
Volunteer Board's Time? KCMPI Solves Problem with RegOnline's Sharable
Reports
Meeting Planners International, Kansas City Chapter finds technology
that allows them to share real-time event information via the Internet
using RegOnline's web-based software.
(PRWEB) September 15, 2005 -- MPI's Kansas City chapter struggled to
get information to committee members in an easy and timely manner due to
varying locations of the volunteer members. However, a recent switch to
RegOnline, a web-based online event registration system, solved this
problem with report-sharing capabilities. With RegOnline, Board and
Committee members can access real-time reports via Internet access from
any computer to manage their duties and events.
"RegOnline's
report-sharing feature will save us countless emails and phone calls to
communicate event information. We can all just login to an event report
and access the data we need instantly. This, along with their excellent
customer service, really made our decision to switch to their system very
easy." said Diane Wolfe, CMP, Vice President of Finance for
KCMPI.
KCMPI is using RegOnline to market their monthly educational
and social events to members and guests. In addition to online
registration, KCMPI will use the survey tool to poll its event attendees
for valuable event feedback. As with event registration, the survey
results are also accessed and sharable amongst board and committee
members.
"Any event data that is collected through our system can
be shared via a secure Internet link," stated Bill Flagg, President of
RegOnline. "Plus, our users can select the data the want to share and with
whom they want to share the information. It's a very secure and a highly
efficient communication method, especially for an organization like KCMPI
where those involved in the event are not in the same physical
location."
RegOnline has worked with over 2,000 meeting planners
worldwide to bring event registration processes online. Meeting planners
can significantly reduce their event registration workload by switching to
a good online registration system. To learn more, visit RegOnline's Flash

certification and continuing education to professional meeting planners in
the Kansas City area. The chapter is run by a volunteer board of industry
experts and actively promotes the effectiveness of meetings within
organizations. KCMPI, a regional chapter of the global MPI association,
consists of 250 meeting planners planning over 8,500 events annually.

software for meeting and event professionals. Since its inception in 1996,
