Question 1

We already use ChatGPT. Why would we need chAImber Plus?

Accepted Answer

Keep using it. Drafting is the easy part. What takes time is knowing which members to contact this week, writing from what each one actually did this year and logging every send in ChamberMaster. That's the work these systems do.

Question 2

Is our member data safe?

Accepted Answer

The AI never sees your passwords. In ChamberMaster it only adds notes, and never edits, deletes, bills or exports. Every email is approved by your staff, and your data stays in accounts your Chamber owns.

Question 3

We're not on ChamberMaster. Can we still work together?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Yes Deck and Digital Analysis work with any platform. Start with the AI Audit: it shows what works on your software today and what would need adapting.

Question 4

Will this replace our staff?

Accepted Answer

No. Your team reviews and sends every email, and spends the time it gets back with members.

Question 5

Do we have to pay a monthly fee?

Accepted Answer

No. You choose. With the monthly plan, PPT Consulting Services monitors your system every week, rebuilds it every quarter and updates it when ChamberMaster or the AI tools change. Or your team maintains it: you pay a one-time handoff fee (two months of the monthly fee, $500 minimum) and get staff training, a written maintenance guide, 30 days of email questions and paid help after that. You can switch to the monthly plan at any time.

Question 6

How long does setup take?

Accepted Answer

Most systems are set up in your Chamber's voice in 2 to 4 weeks, followed by staff training and your first live Monday.

Question 7

Does our board need to approve it?

Accepted Answer

If your board weighs in, you get a one-page board memo with the retention math, the cost and the safety summary.

Question 8

How much does chAImber Plus cost?

Accepted Answer

Prices are based on Chamber size. For a small Chamber (under 300 members): Retention, Growth & Prospect System $1,750 setup + $175 a month; Member Onboarding $1,500 + $150 a month; The Yes Deck $1,250 + $300 a year refresh; Digital Analysis $1,500 + $75 a month; AI Audit $750. Mid-size and large Chambers pay more; Custom Chamber Web Apps start at $3,500 + $150 a month. Monthly fees apply only when PPT maintains the system. Each system also uses a Claude subscription ($20 to $25 per user per month, paid to Anthropic).

Question 9

What is the chAImber Plus AI Audit?

Accepted Answer

A 2 to 3 week review of a Chamber's renewals, first-year members, membership sales and staff time, measured in its own numbers. It costs $750, $1,250 or $1,750 depending on Chamber size, and the fee is credited toward any chAImber Plus system started within 60 days of the readout.
