"We have busy executives who need reliability. The automated email reminders and mobile access mean everyone stays informed. Setup took 10 minutes vs. 2+ hours with our old system."
— Jennifer Tam, District 30 Director

The Challenge

Michigan Avenue Toastmasters caters to busy professionals in downtown Chicago. Their members are executives, consultants, and entrepreneurs who value efficiency above all else.

Jennifer Tam, the District 30 Director, found that their previous software, Easy-Speak, was too clunky for their mobile-first membership. Members would often ignore emails because the interface was hard to use on their phones, leading to last-minute dropouts.

Before & After

Before Toastmanagers

  • Clunky, non-mobile friendly interface
  • High rate of last-minute dropouts
  • Complex signup process for new members
  • Frustrated executive members
  • Wasted time on manual reminders

After Toastmanagers

  • Sleek, mobile-first design
  • Automated reminders reduce dropouts
  • 10-minute club setup
  • High adoption among busy pros
  • Zero-maintenance scheduling

Why They Switched

"Our members live on their phones," Jennifer says. "If they can't do it in two taps, they won't do it. Toastmanagers was the only platform that offered a modern mobile experience."

The automated email reminders were another key factor. By sending timely, professional reminders, the club drastically reduced the number of no-shows and last-minute cancellations.
