Membership Best Practice Question

Scott Podraza
$organization

Hello Tessitura hivemind!

I have a question for organizations who use Memberships for donor contributions (i.e. not literal memberships, like museums). Do you have a membership level below your first donor level, or does your structure start at your first level? I ask because I'm struggling with the affect of microdonations renewal schedules. 

Thoughts? Does anyone forsee/Has anyone had an issue with removing the "below membership" level?

    In membership we use a first level below our first donor level with benifits.  I think we call it something like non membership level below level 1. This seems to be important for smooth operations of Tessitura.  This level just has no benefits.  Sets no constituency codes so no benefits are granted.  

    We tend to put micro donations in a completely different campaign, with it's own campaign category, and use a different fund as well.  We try to keep the micro donations that will never get any benefits and can never add up to a total of contributions that would produce a membership  granting benifits in their own campaign.  

    Hope that's helpful.
