It's done, although it was not really easy:)
FYI- it's the first time when we had to deal with such a huge number of the new Membership requests to proceed during some very short period of time!
Let me give you some details:
- For why there was such a huge number- please read our news about Milan-IN / LinkedIn strategic Partnership, first of all.
- But it was not only LinkedIn to bring the new members to Milan-IN! Please have a look at here: Milan-IN has appeared in press articles of some most important national newspapers and magazines, such as
- For why in such short period of time? Have a look at here, my blogging- "NEL GIRO DI 24 ORE" :) It was a small mistake of our President, to not adopt his "Welcome Letter" template to the new reality: he promised to all new members that Andrey will do it in one day, and that's for sure not possible- so our official excuse is here!
What's the future?
OF COURSE we have to adopt our Membership Checking-Approval Processes to the new reality!
In the beginning we saw Milan-IN as "a small networking family". For us it was very important to LEARN our new Members, to speak with everyone who's gonna become the part of this family, to have some manual steps in the New User-Activation Work-flow, to guarantee that the Club always has the people that we could trust.
But now it's becoming a bit bigger "networking family" :), so for the Marketing and IT Teams it will be a very cool quest to find an enhanced work-flow that won't kill the "family"/ Club spirit here, but in the same time to not have anymore the steps required such high level of personal involvement of the Org-Team members.
It's for sure we'll do it! Milan-IN will never become "just another on-line Community"- we're THE CLUB and we want to remain THE CLUB forever.
So, everybody interested to take part in the life of the Org-Teams of the Club- please contact us about it!
We need YOU!
