Tokyo American Club Members Use AINEO Secure To Make Their Voices Heard

Tokyo American Club is a private club of expats from around the world situated in Tokyo, Japan.

Three years ago, a group decided that it would be better if the facilities were rebuilt and updated to draw new members and improve the clubhouse for existing members.  The club was vacated and demolished.  A temporary club was set up near Shinagawa station in Tokyo.  TAC members say due to the location, marketing issues, management, and a number of factors the club lost members.

In June, the Board of Governors pushed the membership to raise membership dues despite the promise of no rate increases to existing members prior to the demolition of the old site.  Townhall meetings were arranged and it was revealed that the study group that made the recommendation to membership did not know about high salaries to the top ten managers of the club (averaging 17.7m yen in 2009) and no apparent effort to outsource or reduce TAC operating costs.

A vast majority of the membership rose up and created a website to ensure transparency in the management of the Tokyo American Club.

TAC membership selected AINEO Secure to build a website using the free tools included in the service.  The site for Making A Better American Club (MABT) was created.  The infrastructure of the site was created in little than an hour.  The site includes

-Interactive posting of articles and thoughts with sections for other members to comment
-Built In statistics recording the number of visitors, referrals, and pages viewed on the site

-A Web 2.0 site built on Wordpress standard content management system (CMS)
