This post marks the beginning of what we hope is an informative series on Association Management Systems and their capabilities! First up we have Rhythm, a relatively new player in the AMS arena that's been making quite a splash.

Rhythm burst onto the scene in 2019, thanks to the visionary leadership of its CEO, Andrew Ryan, and its CTO, Jim Catts. Together, they brought over three decades of collective experience in the association management software realm, and they combined this wealth of knowledge with the latest technological advancements to craft an AMS solution that's both intuitive and groundbreaking.

Company Summary: Rhythm helps associations by giving them an intuitive, powerful system that lets them advance their missions, further their communities, and provide resources for their industry. They combine a flexible platform with an intuitive member experience to become an extension of your team. Powerful, built-in configuration options make the platform feel like a custom fit without the customization fees. Rhythm also prides itself on customer service and helps clients get the most out of their system.

In his bestselling book, The Lean Startup, Eric Ries makes the case for  getting new products into customers’ hands faster. He advocates for a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) approach, starting lean instead of investing time and money perfecting a product that may end up being of little or no interest to customers. Ries’s methodology starts with launching the MVP and using it to learn what the market actually wants, then continually iterating based on that learned intelligence. This “build-measure-learn” feedback loop saves both time and money, enabling lean startups to get a product to market quickly and customers to help shape the solution that meets their actual needs, rather than needs founders think they have.
