How ApproveThis + MC Professional Cuts Approval Chaos for Growing Teams
When Your AMS Needs Adult Supervision
Let's be real – MC Professional kicks ass at managing memberships and tracking invoices. But when it comes to actually getting decisions made about that data? You're still playing email tennis between departments. ApproveThis acts like the bouncer for your AMS data, making sure nothing moves forward until the right people say "hell yes."
Why This Combo Works Like Bourbon and Branch Water
MC Professional tracks the what. ApproveThis manages the who. Together, they make sure:
- No invoice gets paid without actual human eyes on it
- Event approvals don't get lost between marketing and finance
- CE credits auto-magically appear when training gets approved
The kicker? Approvers don't need MC Professional logins. Perfect for board members who still print emails or vendors you don't want poking around your AMS.
Real Sh*t Your Peers Are Automating
1. Invoice Approvals That Actually Prevent Embarrassment
Picture this: Your events team orders 500 branded fidget spinners. MC Professional sees the invoice. ApproveThis:
- Checks if it's under $5k? Auto-approves
- Over budget? Routes to CFO + legal (with calculator fields showing per-unit cost)
- Approved? Syncs back to MC Professional as paid
Who cares: Nonprofits avoiding donor drama, construction firms keeping subs honest, anyone who's ever paid an invoice twice.
2. Event Approvals That Don't Require 17 Slack Threads
New conference registrant hits your MC Professional form. Instead of CC'ing half the company:
ApproveThis:
- Checks if it's a platinum member? Auto-approves
- New lead? Requires sales manager sign-off
- Requires dietary restrictions review by ops
Real talk: Associations running 50+ events/year save 3 hours/week on approval follow-ups. Plus no more vegan steakhouse dinners.
3. CE Credits That Track Themselves
Training request gets approved in ApproveThis? MC Professional automatically:
- Applies CE credits
- Updates member profiles
- Triggers renewal reminders
Cool factor: Accounting firms keeping CPA credits straight, healthcare orgs tracking compliance hours, any group tired of spreadsheets.
Setup That Won't Make You Swear
1. Zapier account (free tier works)
2. Connect MC Professional + ApproveThis
3. Pick trigger (new invoice, registrant, etc.)
4. Map fields once
5. Test with a real request
Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag invoices over budget or registrations needing special handling.
Who Actually Benefits (Besides Your Sanity)
Finance Teams
AP clerks stop playing detective. Approval thresholds auto-approve small invoices but escalate sketchy charges with audit trails. Vacation delegation means no more "Waiting on Karen" holds.
Membership Directors
New member applications get marketing approval before hitting the AMS. Renewal discounts require board sign-off. All without manual handoffs.
Event Planners
Venue contracts route to legal. Speaker honorariums need CFO approval. Dietary restrictions auto-route to catering. All while keeping MC Professional updated in real time.
The Nerd Stuff You'll Actually Use
ApproveThis plays nice with MC Professional through:
- Triggers: New requests, approvals/denials
- Actions: Create requests from any MC Professional data
Translation: Any form, invoice, or member action in MC Professional can kick off approvals. And every decision syncs back without CSV hell.
Why This Isn't Just Another Integration
Most approval tools make you choose between flexibility and simplicity. ApproveThis gives you:
- Email approvals: For execs who live in Outlook
- Approval groups: Require all hands or first-responder wins
- Conditional logic: Skip steps when not needed
Combine that with MC Professional's deep member data, and you've got approvals that actually adapt to how you work.
Bottom Line
If you're using MC Professional, you care about clean data and smooth operations. ApproveThis adds the human layer – making sure decisions happen fast without dropping balls. No more "I thought you approved that?" moments. Just member management that actually works how you do.
Next steps: Get your free ApproveThis account and connect it to MC Professional in 15 minutes. Or book a demo to see how construction companies slash invoice approval times by 70%.
Either way, stop letting approval chaos mess with your AMS mojo. You've got better things to do than chase signatures.
