What member segments should be visible in the directory and referral filters?
The answer sets profile taxonomy, import fields, and search facets before launch.
Owner
Chapter admin
The referral network pilot should start only after the buyer confirms member vocabulary, roster ownership, sponsor reporting rules, and the first event or campaign that will drive participation. This page turns the intake into a buyer-visible readiness checklist for scope, data, roles, approvals, launch domain, and first-week handoff.
One chapter admin, one sponsor/reporting owner, roster export access, and weekly launch review for the first 30 days.
