ourClubSite.com has quite an interesting story to tell. Its
founder, Christopher Cahill, served many of the finest private clubs of Metro
Detroit in a completely non-technical field, beverages. Spending countless
hours in and around these clubs, conversing and commiserating with various
levels of staff and management, Chris learned how a club operates, firsthand.
Looking for a change and perhaps a little better use of his
law degree and MBA, Chris moved to Grand Rapids to learn what technology had to
offer his business career, and almost instantly an idea was born. Being
introduced to high level systems, especially Intranets, was an enlightening
experience. The techniques and tools that major corporations used to
communicate and interact electronically were easily transferable to the private
clubs that Chris was so familiar with, but what about the cost. Some of these
small systems cost tens, if not hundreds of thousands to develop. No club would
ever pay that much.
Rather than group a bunch of local clubs together for one
project, Chris decided to form a service that can be mass marketed to clubs.
Chris used his own experience in
conjunction with the advise from industry leaders at Michigan State University
and managers at various Michigan clubs to form this service. ourClubSite.com,
is built for private clubs with the lowest common denominator of technology
firmly in mind.
“Your club can turn an aol account into a Fortune 500 level
eService tool, for just $75 per month, “ say Cahill. He continues, “We are
different than most, if not all, of our competitors. Having built the system
with our own skills, we don’t have charge a fortune to recoup our investment or
give in to classless ads to go public. ourClubSite.com is a solid value, priced
affordably, that enables all of the private clubs in the US to use the Internet
for Member Service and Satisfaction.” It is an ideal solution.
