  • 00:00:25
    video in the description in this video
  • 00:00:27
    I'll cover what's changing as part of
  • 00:00:29
    our re branding what's staying the same
  • 00:00:31
    and what does that mean for
  • 00:00:33
    you first of all the most obvious change
  • 00:00:36
    is in our name we have moved under a new
  • 00:00:39
    corporation which is structured like a
  • 00:00:41
    software as a service company more
  • 00:00:43
    commonly known as SAS
  • 00:00:45
    saas our previous company was grip
  • 00:00:48
    digital and it had a pretty broad
  • 00:00:50
    mandate where we would build software
  • 00:00:51
    applications and websites for any
  • 00:00:53
    industry but like you all know that for
  • 00:00:56
    the past 10 years we have been primarily
  • 00:00:58
    building member portals and member ship
  • 00:01:00
    websites for associations and
  • 00:01:01
    associations alone we do not work with
  • 00:01:04
    any other Industries now so this new
  • 00:01:07
    company member Lounge is designed to
  • 00:01:09
    cater to associations only and to build
  • 00:01:12
    membership websites all of our services
  • 00:01:14
    products and processes along with
  • 00:01:16
    contracts are now optimized to serve
  • 00:01:18
    associations better so what does that
  • 00:01:21
    mean for your current contracts that you
  • 00:01:23
    already have with us one of our account
  • 00:01:25
    managers or I myself will reach out to
  • 00:01:27
    you to renew your contract under the new
  • 00:01:30
    company name your service terms will not
  • 00:01:33
    change they will remain the same and the
  • 00:01:35
    quality and extent of the services will
  • 00:01:38
    remain the same as well we will just
  • 00:01:39
    renew the contract under our new company
  • 00:01:41
    name next let me talk about invoices and
  • 00:01:44
    documents from now on you will see all
  • 00:01:46
    our invoices and documents will carry
  • 00:01:48
    the new name member lounge and the new
  • 00:01:50
    member Lounge logo we have a nice logo
  • 00:01:53
    for member Lounge I think you'll like it
  • 00:01:55
    our payment terms are changing a bit to
  • 00:01:57
    make it easier for us to manage
  • 00:01:59
    subscriptions we are introducing annual
  • 00:02:01
    payments and multi-year contracts for
  • 00:02:03
    our current and future clients which we
  • 00:02:05
    did not have before we think this will
  • 00:02:07
    also make it easier for you to create
  • 00:02:09
    your budget over the next couple of
  • 00:02:10
    years our email addresses are going to
  • 00:02:12
    change as well to use member la.app as
  • 00:02:14
    our primary email domain but don't worry
  • 00:02:17
    if you send us any email under the
  • 00:02:19
    previous grip digital email we will
  • 00:02:21
    still receive all those emails all the
  • 00:02:22
    emails will be forwarded to the new
  • 00:02:24
    email addresses let's talk about
  • 00:02:25
    improvements in our processes and
  • 00:02:27
    systems behind the scenes we have been
  • 00:02:30
    making some massive changes on our
  • 00:02:31
    processes and Technologies our way of
  • 00:02:34
    working within the organization has
  • 00:02:36
    changed quite a bit as well we will
  • 00:02:38
    slowly roll out some changes for you our
  • 00:02:40
    clients as well but most of these
  • 00:02:42
    changes will be very transparent to you
  • 00:02:44
    so very likely you will not feel any
  • 00:02:47
    difference in the way you working with
  • 00:02:48
    us right now and in fact we have already
  • 00:02:51
    been making a number of changes through
  • 00:02:53
    software releases in the last couple of
  • 00:02:55
    months there will be more changes to our
  • 00:02:57
    platform and Technology over time but we
  • 00:02:59
    will try to make sure the changes are
  • 00:03:01
    incremental and there is no service
  • 00:03:03
    disruption during any maintenance that
  • 00:03:05
    we do now let's talk about what is not
  • 00:03:08
    changing it's very important to stress
  • 00:03:11
    the fact that you are still working with
  • 00:03:13
    the same team and the company is still
  • 00:03:15
    under the same ownership we are not
  • 00:03:17
    selling the company and we are not being
  • 00:03:19
    acquired by another entity I farad Khan
  • 00:03:23
    Remain the majority shareholder and our
  • 00:03:25
    Focus will continue to be the same that
  • 00:03:27
    is to serve our clients in the best way
  • 00:03:29
    possible you will work with the same
  • 00:03:30
    development team and the same account
  • 00:03:32
    manager whether you are working with
  • 00:03:34
    bonna FJ or pragash you will continue to
  • 00:03:37
    work with the same account manager the
  • 00:03:39
    development team on your project will
  • 00:03:41
    continue to be the same as well and even
  • 00:03:43
    though we have extended our services in
  • 00:03:45
    the US as well we remain a Canadian
  • 00:03:47
    controlled private Corporation just like
  • 00:03:50
    we were under gribe digital all data and
  • 00:03:52
    hosting for our Canadian clients will
  • 00:03:54
    remain within Canadian data centers and
  • 00:03:56
    all data and hosting for our us clients
  • 00:03:58
    will remain in the data center in the US
  • 00:04:01
    just like before as always you maintain
  • 00:04:04
    full ownership and control of your data
  • 00:04:07
    on any of our platforms this commitment
  • 00:04:09
    has not changed and your data remains as
  • 00:04:11
    secure as ever I also want to highlight
  • 00:04:14
    the fact that there is no action needed
  • 00:04:16
    from your end for these changes Your
  • 00:04:18
    Service pricing and everything will
  • 00:04:20

    decisions for the best interest of our

    clients interests means that we have to

    always made sacrifices like that in the
  • 00:05:21
