Pippily adds a Digital Membership Advantage
Stop Losing Local Commerce to Big Tech. Start Generating Additional Dues Revenue.
The Pippily Promise: Automation, Impact, and Revenue
Local businesses are wrestling with visibility issues as they contend with colossal players like Google, Amazon, Temu, and Facebook. Your organization is keen to help but encounters limitations in time, staff, and budget for a wide-ranging and effective local commerce initiative.
Pippily tackles this challenge by collaboratively managing your Pippily platform, assuming full responsibility for community commerce technology, conducting new member research and onboarding, and providing ongoing support for all commerce-related needs of your members or local businesses. You handle the membership management aspects including their membership billing, community calendar, event registration and updates to the fully integrated website.
The Three Core Benefits
CENTRALIZED RESOURCES
A single source for all community and business information
MODERN BUSINESS TOOLS
Provide businesses with easy-to-use apps and marketing tools (like marketing landing pages, mobile apps, QR codes, text words)
INCREASED LOCAL ENGAGEMENT
Drive residents and visitors to spend locally
The Financial Advantage:
Better Positioned to go After the Other 80%
The "Hidden" Growth Opportunity
Most Membership Management Systems (MMS) are built for retention, not expansion. By focusing only on the 20% who are already members:
- Market Saturation: You are competing in a small, crowded space.
- Stagnant Revenue: Growth is limited to raising dues on the same group of people.
- Limited Influence: Your community's voice is only as loud as its smallest segment.
The Pippily Advantage: Targeting the 80% represents a 400% increase in your potential reach. This isn't just about "more members"; it’s about capturing the true economic heartbeat of your community—the freelancers, the home-based businesses, and the digital startups that traditional systems ignore.
Why the "80%" is Staying Away
- Transactional vs. Relational: They want immediate, practical tools to run their business (like what Pippily provides) rather than a plaque on a wall.
- The "Country Club" Stigma: Many see chambers as a closed loop of established elites rather than an inclusive incubator for new ideas.
- Information Accessibility: They don't need a chamber for information; they need a platform for integration and streamlined operations.
Younger entrepreneurs—specifically Millennials and Gen Z—are bypassing traditional Chambers of Commerce because they perceive a "value gap" between old-school networking and the modern digital economy.
Younger business owners are "tool-driven." They use Shopify for retail, Canva for design, and Slack for comms. When you approach them with Pippily, you aren't selling a "club membership"—you are offering a centralized operating system for their business that just happens to connect them to the local community.
It changes the conversation from "Join us and support the town" to "Use this to grow your business, and we'll handle the community integration for you."
What You Get:
The Commerce of Commerce Ecosystem
Pippily provides a complete, interconnected system that puts your community and businesses first
The Business Clicker App is the high-speed "control center" designed specifically for the entrepreneur on the move. While the community uses the Community Clicker to browse, the business owner uses the Business Clicker to execute.
It’s the tool that makes managing a business across the entire Pippily ecosystem as simple as using a smartphone. Instead of being tied to a desktop, business owners can update their digital storefront, post real-time ads, jobs, services, Deals, and engage with the community from the palm of their hand. It is the bridge that allows the "other 80%"—the busy contractors, the solo-retailers, and the mobile service providers—to maintain a professional, high-impact digital presence without needing a dedicated marketing department.
Key Features of the Business Clicker:
Instant Updates: Changed your services, need a new employee you can auto write job descriptions, or have a new special? Update it in the app, and it syncs instantly across the Community Hub, the Kiosks, and every resident's Community Clicker app.
Lead Management: Receive and respond to inquiries or service requests in real-time, ensuring you never miss a local opportunity.
Mobile Marketing: Create and launch new services, products or "Deals" to the community’s smartphones with just a few taps.
Catalog Control: Add products, services, or portfolio images on the fly—simply snap a photo with your phone and the Ai enabled system will create the ad for you in about 15-30 seconds. It is the quickest way to document a business for search right from your phone.
The Business Clicker App
A powerful, corporate-grade website that transforms into the ultimate local commerce center. It showcases your initiatives, assists both residents and visitors, and can be tailored to reflect your local brand (e.g., "Bringing Local Back, (your city).IsAGreatPlaceToVisit.com," etc.).
Bonus: Numerous communities are eligible for HOTEL TAX grants, as the system effortlessly enhances visitor center programs and premium promotional opportunities for hotels, motels, and B&Bs.
Bonus: The Pippily Community Kiosk is a powerful digital gateway designed to bridge the gap between your local businesses and the people moving through your community. Included as a standard feature of the Pippily ecosystem, the kiosk software turns any tablet or touchscreen into an interactive "Visitor and Resource Center." It provides residents and tourists with instant, searchable access to the local marketplace, including business catalogs, community events, and more. By placing these kiosks in high-traffic areas like libraries, hotel lobbies, or city halls, you ensure that the "other 80%" of your local businesses are no longer invisible, but are instead front-and-center for every visitor looking for a place to eat, shop, or work.
The Powerful Community Website and Kiosk
To round out the ecosystem, Pippily provides two specialized digital environments: one for the user on the go (the App) and one for the community’s central identity (the Hub). Together, they ensure that the "other 80%" of businesses are always reachable and relevant.
The Community Clicker App
The Community Clicker is the "remote control" for your local economy. Designed for the modern consumer who expects everything to be a tap away, this mobile app replaces traditional, static member directories with a dynamic, interactive experience. It allows users to follow their favorite local businesses, receive real-time "hot deals" via push notifications, and access digital loyalty cards—all while keeping their data private. For the business owner, it’s a direct line to the customer's pocket; for the community, it’s the tool that turns a "shop local" sentiment into a measurable habit.
The Community Hub

The Community Hub is the digital "Town Square" of the 21st century. It serves as a centralized web-based portal where all the data from the Pippily ecosystem—events, job postings, business catalogs, and community news—is aggregated into a single, high-traffic destination. Unlike a standard website, the Hub is a living resource center that stays current automatically as businesses update their own profiles. It provides a professional, "big city" digital presence for even the smallest town, ensuring that whether someone is looking for a local plumber, a weekend festival, or a new career opportunity, they find it in one cohesive, easy-to-navigate space.
The Community Clicker App and Community Hub
The team at our Community Internet Studio immediately starts working when a business joins. We research their primary services, create a starter professional services catalog for them, and ensure they are featured across the community website, mobile apps, and more.

The Community Prospector
Prospects are coming through a variety of channels, including the Official Community Website, Bringing Local Back Portal (or alternate brand), the Internet, Community Directory, Community Clicker Resident App, Business Mobile Web Applications, Marketing Landing Pages, Individually Advertised Items, Service Pages, through Various Social Networks when Shared, and the Commission Free E-store.
Join us in our mission to enhance commerce for every local business through Pippily. It's a win-win scenario—businesses can easily create and manage their advertising using the Business Clicker Ai Mobile application provided by your local community leadership.
As Google and Bing control global information management, their focus on AI-generated results is diminishing local businesses' visibility. We advocate for community leadership to lead the development of localized, AI-driven search solutions. This network is dedicated to the local community, free from outside influences that often divert consumers from supporting local enterprises, a common issue with platforms like Google, Bing, Facebook and Others.
Pippily Business Services
For You
Business Subscription Services
Community businesses have the option to register on a dedicated website distinct from the official Chamber site. Unlike the current member payment processing system, these businesses do not handle transactions in the same manner, causing many to view their registration as simply joining the Community on Display (or the brand you choose) program rather than becoming an integral part of the Chamber itself. By upgrading to a Chamber of Commerce membership, a wealth of additional opportunities opens up. Discover more at www.ChamberSalesPlan.com.
Business Onboarding Services
When a local business registers and subscribes to the Community on Display program (or the chosen brand), our team is promptly notified, allowing us to commence the research and onboarding process for that business. We take care of developing their local network marketing landing page, a catalog of professional services, complementary visuals, a mobile web application, QR codes, and a designated text keyword. Subsequently, they are smoothly integrated into the Community on Display program (or the selected brand) and are added to both Apple and Android mobile apps. Additionally, they receive a license for their Business Clicker automated advertising mobile app.
Business Support Services
Pippily by Chamber Nation is committed to co-managing your local Community on Display (or the brand you choose) program, while guaranteeing that you receive the vital support necessary to keep your subscribers satisfied with their services. You focus on promotion, and we'll oversee a stunning community network and website that showcases your entire business community for local search and engagement. You will be able to easily manage the static information elements in the community website.
