How to Host Your Club's Website on the
AVA Server. Contact AVA HQ ....
avahq@ava.org
HQ will forward your
request to the IT Committee. Your account will be set up on the AVA server. The
club president will be given the user id and password. Each club is responsible for
loading and maintaining their own website. FTP the files to the server and you
are in business.
Go
to
address
ftp://ava.org/clubs
and
type
in
your
user
name
(login)
and
password.
Each club that has space on the AVA
server is billed $60.00 per year on May 1. This amount is prorated for the
first year depending on the month the club comes on board the AVA
server.
ENHANCING CUSTOMER SERVICE
The staff of AVA has been conducting meetings to
come up with ways to enhance customer service. With such a small staff, all
felt it was important for anyone in the office to be able to answer questions
for other areas. Staff also felt that there should be some sort of method of
feedback so those that are going beyond the norm to provide excellent customer
service could be recognized.
With this in mind;
cross training
is
on
going
for all staff. This will be a
continuing process as people leave and new people come on board.
Comments to staff for
excellent service are now being tracked.
AVA management is
asking that you help us provide incentives for excellent service by writing or
emailing your customer service comments concerning any staff member to the
Financial Director and Staff Supervisor, Candace Purcell . Her email address is
candy@ava.org or you may write to her
attention at our normal mailing address. While we want good comments, part of
providing customer service is also addressing the problems, so if your comments
are concerning problems you have had please feel free to contact Candace
concerning those also.
