What happens when you have an emergency in your community? How do you reach out to your residents? How do you let them know what’s happening, what they should do or what you are doing? A Town Web municipal website is a great way to connect with your residents.
When an emergency strikes your community, how do you communicate swiftly and effectively with your residents? How do you ensure they are informed about the situation, know what actions to take, and understand how you are responding? Town Web municipal website provides an emergency mass notification system solution for these critical communications.
Our Communication Platform offers an efficient, user-friendly emergency mass notification system to reach your residents, during emergencies. Here’s how you can manage different scenarios using Town Web:
Posting updates on your website is a start, but not all residents may check it regularly. Social media platforms like Facebook can help, but algorithms may limit the reach of your posts. Town Web’s Communication Platform ensures your message is delivered directly to your residents.
With a Town Web municipal website, you can post standard municipal information as well as News & Notices and Emergency Alerts using the emergency mass notification system. Residents can subscribe to receive instant notifications via text message, email, or both whenever you publish updates they are interested in.
Residents can choose which alerts they wish to receive. Options include:
Subscribers provide their name, email, and cellphone number, ensuring targeted and relevant notifications.
Imagine reaching all your subscribers with immediate notices about emergencies. Each update can guide residents on what actions to take, provide updates on your response, and direct them on how to get help or assist others.
By directly sending accurate information, you reduce the spread of rumors and misinformation. When residents receive consistent messages directly from the source, they are more likely to trust and follow the guidance provided.
While some communities use other providers, a paid service for emergency notifications, Town Web’s Communication Platform offers a similar service at no additional cost. This feature is included as part of your municipal website package, providing a cost-effective solution for you and your residents.
Posting updates and alerts on the Communication Platform is straightforward. Once published, alerts appear on your website’s homepage and are sent immediately to subscribers. If you have a Facebook page, the system can also automate posts to it.
For added convenience, you can delegate the task to us by emailing or messaging us on Facebook. We’ll handle posting municipal agendas, minutes, News & Notices, and Emergency Alerts, ensuring your residents stay informed without any extra effort on your part.
Emergencies are unpredictable, making preparedness crucial. Incorporating a Town Web municipal website into your emergency plans ensures you can quickly disseminate accurate information to your community.
