Streamlining Operations for Associations with kintone and Orikou Blog DX
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, many associations, unions, and organizations are grappling with operational inefficiencies. These inefficiencies often arise from managing member information via outdated methods, such as Excel and paper documents. Furthermore, the traditional approaches to disseminating information—predominantly through mail or email—can inflate costs and multiply workload. Addressing these challenges, DS Brand Inc. has introduced a transformative solution by integrating the business improvement platform kintone with their website creation tool, Orikou Blog DX.

Key Usage Scenarios Highlighted in the Video
The video elaborates on three concrete scenarios where organizations can streamline their operations by employing kintone and Orikou Blog DX effectively:
1. Simplified Membership Database Management
Thus far, many organizations have relied on Excel or paper to manage member databases. However, the integration allows for central management through kintone. Information submitted via an online admission application form on their website can automatically be recorded within kintone. This functionality eliminates the tedious transfer of information and reduces errors, vastly improving the overall efficiency.
2. Smooth Information Sharing on Member Portals
The creation of a password-protected member-only page on websites allows organizations to easily share necessary resources and member lists registered in kintone. With this system in place, members get 24/7 access to vital information while drastically cutting down on administrative work and postal costs related to information distribution.
3. Automated Event and Seminar Attendance Management
Linking event sign-up forms on the website to kintone enables real-time aggregation of attendance data, allowing organizations to automate management processes. This eliminates the need for previous manual processes, such as conducting registrations via phone or fax, thus relieving administrative burdens significantly.
