The Bürgerportal Bergisch Gladbach is a local media newsletter supported by over 1000 voluntary members through its “Freundeskreis.” With beabee, the team moved from manually tracking payments in spreadsheets to a professional CRM, automating billing and communications. This saves time, allows direct engagement with members, and makes sustainable growth of the community possible.

The Green Line is a community-focused local newsroom in Toronto that produces free, ad-free content across newsletters, social media, and YouTube. Using beabee’s integrated CrowdNewsroom, the team engages its community through surveys, events, and direct feedback, while also managing donations and memberships.
