Ann Arbor, MI — Furthering their commitment to the church marketplace, Church Management Solutions, a sister company of ParishSOFT, announced today their strategic, private label distributorship of TechRadium's Immediate Response Information System (IRIS): NotifyNow by Church Management Solutions.

NotifyNow by Church Management Solutions will allow church staff to send their personally recorded message or text electronically from a single source to individuals or groups that they select from the CMS database. Message recipients get the facts of any given situation via home phone, cell phone, fax, pager, text message and/or email. Messages, in multiple languages, can reach thousands in just minutes, while documenting the delivery of each call.

"We believe that this product is a great fit in our mission to provide relevant technologies to increase communication and collaboration within churches and schools," stated Mike Cusick, vice president of sales & marketing with CMS.

Cusick continued, "This strategic relationship will help our customers save a tremendous amount of resources, time and money while allowing them to increase their service, stewardship and communication to their congregations, volunteers and ministries."

"TechRadium is proud to partner with CMS, the leading provider of service solutions to the church," said John Rodkey, vice president of sales, marketing & governmental affairs for TechRadium. "We believe that ParishSOFT and CMS are the best service providers to offer the IRIS system to this market."

NotifyNow by Church Management Solutions is being used by churches and schools to communicate instantly with congregations, staff, volunteers, team members, and parents about events and issues that are vital to those organizations, such as changes in event times or locations, cancellations/school closings, fundraising goals, prayer chains, and more. This new technology improves the speed and accuracy of communication for churches and schools while saving them money in greatly reduced administrative costs.

In a future release, NotifyNow will be integrated with the CMS Membership Module. This integration will promote better communication between churches and schools and the people they serve, as well as allowing them to increase participation and stewardship.
