For more inspiration on what is possible, check out the Support Centre article <a href="https://support.spektrix.com/hc/en-us/articles/16599454368797-What-is-a-Spektrix-Subsite" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">What is a Subsite</a>.This isn't just a demonstration; it’s a dedicated "power hour" to get the work done. You will log into Spektrix Link, apply your organization's branding, set up your navigation menu and configure settings required in the website Admin interface.

Activation Workshop: Enabling Recurring Donations

This activation workshop is designed to help leverage existing Spektrix data to drive measurable membership growth. The focus is on spotting the regulars who act like members but haven't joined yet and then build lookalike audiences to find more people like them. <h3>What we will achieve together: </h3>Participants will analyse their visitor data within Spektrix to surface "lookalike" records, those whose behavioural profile mirrors that of existing members. We will build an autotag and customer group to flag these individuals to their teams on an ongoing basis. <h3>Pre-requisites for attending: </h3><ol><li data-list="bullet">Have the General Administrator user role</li><li data-list="bullet">Have the Insights &amp; Mailings Administrator user role</li><li data-list="bullet">Have access to the Sales Interface </li></ol><h3>Resources:</h3><a href="https://community.spektrix.com/home/resources/identify-potential-members" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Recipe: Identify Potential Members</a><a href="https://community.spektrix.com/home/resources/highlight-potential-members-with-customer-groups" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Recipe: Highlight Potential Members with Customer Groups</a><a href="https://support.spektrix.com/hc/en-us/articles/201667993-Normal-Tags-and-Auto-Tags#h_01JD5AX4VGKMCMQZV9AYFH58ZP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How to create an Auto Tag</a><a href="https://support.spektrix.com/hc/en-us/articles/230352308-Customer-Groups" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Customer Groups</a><a href="https://support.spektrix.com/hc/en-us/articles/201667253-Crossover-Analysis-How-to-Run-a-Customer-List-through-a-Report" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Crossover Analysis - How to Run a Customer List through a Report</a> Please note: Activation Workshops are not recorded.
