The Southern California Olympians and Paralympians has significantly boosted member involvement for its programs since using Trumpias All-In-One Multi-Channel Marketing platform, which offers mobile text, email, voice broadcast, IM and social media messaging in a single platform.

Some of the many initiatives of the organization include its Koroibos Foundation, which raises funds to provide grants for athletes who hope to compete in future Olympiads — such as London 2012 — as well as its World Fit and Ready, Set, Gold! programs, which help place speakers in elementary, middle and high schools. These youth education programs inspire and motivate students to look toward exercise, health, good nutrition and fitness as guidelines for their entire life.

The Southern California Olympians and Paralympians has been leveraging mobile text, email and Facebook to provide information about grant programs and enlist the help of US Olympian and Paralympian athletes who serve as speakers in the classroom and participants at events.

Since adopting the Trumpia platform, the organization has more quickly and efficiently gained the participation from its members in each of its various activities, programs and events.

The organization has built a significant mobile text marketing database after using its July and August email and Facebook campaigns to get people to opt-in to receive its new SMS marketing campaigns. Then, for its SMS request for speakers in mid-August, the Southern California Olympians and Paralympians received responses within 24 hours from nine people who committed their time to volunteer.

Similarly, after receiving a large donation and sending out a SMS text campaign to solicit grant applications, the organization gained 14 responses within 48 hours. And when seeking someone to present a medal at the Cycling Nationals event, the Southern California Olympians and Paralympians also used Trumpias mobile text marketing solution to quickly gain 12 responses within 24 hours.

Since using Trumpia to better engage its Facebook fans, inviting people to text its keyword, OLYMPIANS to its short code, 99000, the organization has enjoyed a 33 percent increase in Facebook Likes, a 21 percent increase in post views and an 11 percent increase in post feedback.

Fifty Southern California schools rely on our program to help ensure that students stay motivated in achieving fitness and academic excellence, said Cathy Marino, president of the Southern California Olympians and Paralympians. As a result, communicating immediately and effectively with our members is absolutely crucial. Using Trumpia as our main communication system makes a big difference, giving us a much more active way to engage our members and carry-out our mission of sponsoring Olympic hopefuls.

Added Marino, Olympians rarely look at their emails. So, it took a lot of phone calls and tons of follow-up and perhaps as long as three weeks — to obtain the results that we realized in just a few days by using the Trumpia platform.

The Southern California Olympians and Paralympians use of Trumpia illustrates how our All-In-One platform can help all types of organizations combine mobile text, email and social media messaging to involve their members and customers on a much more personal and effective level, said Derek Rhie, director of sales and support for Trumpia. Were very pleased to be able to help the organization use multi-channel communications to boost their response rates and grow their organization all in an affordable and highly impactful way.
