Member Insights & Engagement Platform

Make Membership Meaningful.

What if you knew what every member wanted — and what to do next? PropFuel is the member engagement platform for trade associations and professional societies. Ask one question by email, SMS, or your website, and members answer in a single click. It works with your AMS, not instead of it.

Live in weeks, not months · No technical staff needed

Trusted by 300+ associations

Unopened emails aren't the problem. They're a symptom.

The Problem

Your data isn't up to date.

You don't know your members.

You scream into the void and hope someone's listening.

What's Missing

You have an AMS to store data. You have an email tool to send messages. But you still need better member data and engagement, right?

The Membership Engagement Loop

Ask each member one question by email, SMS, or your website. They reply with a single click, the answer lands on their member profile, and it triggers the next action automatically. PropFuel reads from your AMS and writes every response back to it, so your member data stays current. And members actually reply: PropFuel check-ins average 10–15% response rates, 5–6x the industry average for email engagement.

Platform

What Our Clients Say

Hear from our clients.

“You just gave us another staff member.”

Bryan Soady

Executive Director & CEO, SUAA

“Over 400 responses! This is a HUGE step toward cleaning up our data. As far as I’m concerned, PropFuel has already been worth every penny.”

Jeremy Henderson

VP of Marketing, Chattanooga Chamber

“We were at a 10% response rate within 24 hours, and we’ve picked up multiple members — plus four firms who realized they had lapsed, renewed, and even brought in their new employees.”

Kristen L. Miller

Executive Director, Louisville Bar Association

“We paid for our whole year of PropFuel with our first email campaign. We went with PropFuel over MailChimp because it enables a two-way conversation with the member, and the data is automatically populated in the member’s record.”

Molly Martin

Women in Aviation International

“Our onboarding campaign was recognized by ASAE as a Gold Circle Award Winner for Member/Volunteer Engagement. PropFuel has been such a wonderful partner in making this project the best it could be.”

Cortney Bougher

Director of Membership, American Physical Society

“I cannot say enough how nice it is having a partner that doesn’t over-promise and under-deliver, and who has integrity — hard to come by these days, especially in software.”

Lauren San Martin

Director of Marketing & Membership, Veterinary Emergency & Critical Care Society

“I have one member who has struggled with cancer for over five years. I would never have known had she not responded to a PropFuel campaign. I check in on her once in a while.”

Diane Webb

Nebraska Pharmacists Association

“In case you don’t hear it enough — you guys are doing great. We are very pleased with PropFuel, and the webinars are very helpful!”

FAQ

Common questions, straight answers.

What exactly is PropFuel?

PropFuel is member engagement software built for associations. It asks members the right questions, captures every response, and acts on that data — all in one place, working alongside your AMS and your email tool. Unlike a member engagement app your members have to download, PropFuel reaches them where they already are: their inbox, your website, and text messages. Membership AI adds a layer on top that spots patterns in member behavior, recommends what to do next, and drafts campaigns your team reviews and approves before anything sends.

How is PropFuel different from our email marketing tool?

Email tools send messages, and most member engagement tools stop there. PropFuel creates conversations. Every interaction captures member data that writes back to your AMS automatically. You’re not just broadcasting — you’re listening, understanding, and acting on what members actually want.

How long does it take to get started?

Most associations have their first campaign live within 2–3 weeks, with full ramp-up in 2–3 months. You don’t need technical staff: PropFuel is built for membership professionals, not developers. Connecting your AMS typically takes 5–30 minutes, staff training takes 10–45 minutes, and 70+ campaign blueprints mean you never start from scratch. If you can send an email, you can use PropFuel.

Does PropFuel integrate with our AMS?

Yes. Unlike member engagement platforms that ask you to replace your AMS, PropFuel works with the one you have. It integrates with all major association management systems including Nimble AMS, Fonteva, iMIS, YourMembership, MemberClicks, and more. Data flows both ways — we read member data and write engagement insights back automatically.

What kind of results can we expect?

On average, clients see 45% member engagement rates (vs. 2% industry average), $650K in first-year revenue growth, and 72% of declining organizations reverse course. Most clients see ROI within the first 90 days.

What does PropFuel cost?

PropFuel is a member engagement solution sold as an annual subscription, priced by your active membership size, plus a one-time setup fee. Every plan includes unlimited users, campaigns, emails, and contacts. SMS, website engagement, and managed services are available as add-ons. Your rate is locked at signing, and we’ll give you an exact quote during your demo.

What happens to our member data?

Your data is yours. Member responses are stored securely in PropFuel and written back to your AMS, so your AMS stays your system of record. Our subprocessors are contractually prohibited from using your data for their own purposes, your data is never used to train AI models, and Membership AI calls exclude personally identifiable information. Read the details on our AI Security page and in our Privacy Policy.

What support do we get during setup?

Every client gets a dedicated Customer Success Manager who guides your onboarding, AMS connection, and first campaigns, with a response time under three hours. You also get monthly client roundtables and a self-serve help center — and if you’d rather have us build and run campaigns for you, managed services are available.

What size organization is PropFuel built for?

Unlike one-size-fits-all member engagement solutions, PropFuel works with associations of all sizes — from 5,000-member organizations to 500,000+ member associations. Our platform scales with you, and pricing is based on your membership size so it’s always right-sized for your organization.
