For emails or smses.. can try getresponse or MailChimp.

For membership database, used to use Salesforce.. but I think Microsoft Excel/Access can do a similar job if u are competent in linking databases.

Well.. google document can do the same job if it's about recording membership database.

I remember my ex company paid like $200 monthly per account for Salesforce.

Good morning everyone. It's the start of the long weekend. Sometimes I just want to nua the entire day on days like this.

Hope you get to do what you need to, or relax in this long weekend!

❤️

Sleep until natural wake up is such a luxury.
