We have been working with Historic Houses throughout their journey of digital transformation. Our ongoing goal has been to help them use digital to improve the member experience. Key to this is the website, which allows covers everything from joining to visiting houses. We also created an API allowing members to manage details across different platforms.

Regular analytics reviews and usability testing help us to refine the experience, and make continual improvements.
