Subject: Update on Recent Traffic Adjustments
Dear Valued Customers,
This is Richard Scully, CEO.
Our engineering team took the necessary step of removing specific search requests that appeared to originate from bots rather than authentic user engagement. These numbers were escalating quickly, and my priority was to ensure we were not counting any non-genuine or suspicious traffic in our Bringing Local Back program reporting.
In order to uphold accurate and conservative reporting, we modified our backend to filter out the questionable search requests. Consequently, we opted to block that traffic and adjust the totals accordingly.
Moving forward, reports will reflect a more reliable figure that you can depend on. Rest assured, the votes reflecting user preferences (voting) remain unchanged, as they are derived from actual human interactions (one vote per IP address).

We're heading to New Orleans! Our team will be at the ACCE Convention, July 20-22, and we're bringing MMS 2.0 and Pippily along with us. If you're a chamber or association manager, this is your sign to come say hi. We build for one reason: Building Stronger Chambers. Powering Stronger Communities. We exist to make your day-to-day easier, whether that's managing member renewals, tracking engagement, or showing your board the value you're creating. We'd love to show you what's new. Leading the charge for us on the ground is Pria Vijayaratnam, our Director for Enterprise Growth. Here's a note from her: Whether you're a longtime Chamber Nation member, exploring MMS 2.0, or just curious about what Pippily can do for your chamber's member engagement, I'd be happy to walk you through what's new — no slides, no pressure, just a real conversation. If you're planning to be at ACCE, I'd love to set aside 20–30 minutes to meet one-on-one. — Pria Vijayaratnam, Director of Enterprise Growth So if you'll be at ACCE26, find us. Say hello — we'd genuinely love to meet you and talk about how we can support what you're building. See you in New Orleans!
