Transforming static research into a powerful membership acquisition asset.

ESMC needed to prove membership value to prospects, but their valuable research was invisible to potential consortium partners.

Working closely with their Senior Director of Partnerships and Member & Social Impact Manager, we discovered the real challenge wasn't just making data accessible: it was transforming research assets into a strategic tool that could both serve existing members and attract new consortium partners nationwide.

Our discovery process

Through our structured discovery process we transformed a grant deliverable undertaking into a powerful membership acquisition engine that empowers their members to quickly engage with complex datasets.

Phase 1: Strategic alignment

We looked beyond initial requirements to understand the intersection of member needs and organizational growth objectives.

Through collaborative wireframing and system architecture reviews, we identified the dual opportunity: serving existing members while creating compelling value for prospects.

Phase 2: Intelligent systems development

Rather than building from scratch, we provided intelligent starting points with nationwide coverage and intuitive access to complex environmental datasets.

Our approach leveraged our deep understanding of conservation workflows and environmental datasets to transform the tool from regional compliance resource to national strategic asset.

Phase 3: Uncovering the importance of membership ROI

Comprehensive member interviews revealed workflow needs that informed both technical architecture and go-to-market strategy.

Success would be measured not just in user satisfaction, but in ESMC's ability to demonstrate clear membership ROI.

Impact and Outcomes

From regional research to national growth engine

ESMC is now positioned as the definitive resource for conservation insights across the continental United States. We transformed the original 13-state research project with a static deliverable into a dynamic, nationwide platform through intelligent data architecture integrating 60+ environmental data points for every US county.

Adaptive data architecture in action

This project demonstrates our core methodology of adaptive data frameworks that grow with your impact. Our system easily accommodates additional dataset integration requests and was built with adaptation and scalability in mind from day one. This ensures flexibility for ESMC's expanding mission, all the while deploying a fully customized platform at a price point that works for non-profits and grant funded projects.
