How LifestyleLink Helps Lifestyle Directors Help Their Communities
The Lifestyle Director is the heart of an active adult community. She connects community members with the best their facilities have to offer. But the administrative duties of a Lifestyle Director can trap him in an office behind a mountain of emails. LifestyleLink can help free Lifestyle Directors from that workload and put them back in the communities they serve.
LifestyleLink Makes Welcome Services Easier
A Lifestyle Director is often the first person a new resident meets in an active adult community. Even in larger neighborhoods with volunteer welcoming committees, a Lifestyle Director is responsible for helping new residents feel comfortable in their new home. Often this can include answering questions about the community and providing access to the facility services.
LifestyleLink puts online resources from maps to homeowner association policies immediately at the fingertips of Lifestyle Directors and the community members themselves. By creating a portal full of resident resources, Lifestyle Directors can help new community members from afar, providing answers day and night without adding to their workload.
Facility Scheduling Made Easy for Lifestyle Directors
Lifestyle Directors often double as activity managers. Negotiating an active adult community schedule can sometimes be a full-time job. When schedule conflicts cause member anxiety, it is up to the Lifestyle Director to smooth things over and find everyone a time and place to explore their hobbies.
LifestyleLink helps to ensure those scheduling snafus are few and far between. By keeping the community calendar in one place – accessible online anytime through the online portal – it cuts down on conflicts caused by pile ups of paperwork. Instead of calling group leaders or sifting through paper facilities requests, Lifestyle Directors can simply review and approve new online space reservations made by the members directly. This reduces the chances for administrative error and gives Lifestyle Directors more time to spend with the neighbors in their charge.
Automated Community Outreach Keeps Residents Informed of Activity Options
A Lifestyle Director’s job depends on residents knowing about and making use of the facilities and programs offered by the active adult community. To get the word out, a Lifestyle Director is often responsible for notifying members of new clubs, activities, and excursions so they can join in. LifestyleLink won’t write a community’s newsletter, but it can automate community outreach, sending newsletters and blog posts to members phones and inboxes based on their individual preferences.
LifestyleLink also creates an online forum where Lifestyle Directors can interact with community members in real time. This makes communications easy and prompt, and ensures that residents feel connected to what is happening in their neighborhood.
A Lifestyle Director’s work is never done. But it can get easier with LifestyleLink. By automating processes and making tools available to residents and group leaders, the software frees Lifestyle Directors up to spend more time with their members and in their communities.
LifestyleLink is available to active adult communities across the country. With three tiers of features, you can customize the software to fit your needs, and your facility. To automate your community management workload, contact a LifestyleLink representative for a tour of the software.
