Why Hire an Association Management Company?
An association management company (AMC) is a firm of skilled professionals whose goal is to provide management expertise and specialized administrative services to trade and professional organizations in an efficient, cost-effective manner. As non-profits vie for volunteer time, the need for effective professional management becomes increasingly critical. AMCs provide the professional staff, administrative support, office space, technology, and equipment an association needs to operate efficiently. An association management company typically manages several associations from one company location, providing a wide range of benefits including shared technology systems, access to expert specialized staff, and shared purchasing power.
Utilizing in-house expertise and leveraged buying power, AMCs are a cost-effective option and efficient solution for non-profit trade and membership associations. An AMC will allow your association to reduce overhead costs, eliminate the requirement to deal with personnel issues and focus energy on achieving a stronger and more vital organization.
AMCs serve as a partner with their client organizations. Association leaders work with AMC staff to drive growth and sustain success.

What Our Clients Are Saying
“Without the services of AMS the American Glovebox Society (AGS) would not be as successful as it is today. Since their involvement, every phase of AGS activity has become successful. AMS does an incredible job of running the Annual Conference, which is the most important source of funds for AGS. In addition, they organize all the Board meetings, established and oversee the website, manage the publication of our magazine and technical journals, and manage the society’s accounting. In addition, they respond immediately to questions one might have.”

I've had the pleasure of working with Dorothy in more than one capacity over almost a decade now! Dorothy has been the ED of an association of which I was a member, and Dorothy has also used us as a vendor. The swift, clear communication and high integrity with which she approaches each project makes it an absolute pleasure.
