The ERP/CRM Software Blogs has announced the appointment of Judy Van Der Linden as Member Success Manager, a newly created position designed to strengthen support for its growing community of Microsoft Dynamics partners. This strategic hire comes as digital marketing becomes increasingly competitive for value-added resellers (VARs) and independent software vendors (ISVs) in the Microsoft Dynamics ecosystem.
Founded in 2009 on the principle of helping Microsoft Dynamics partners "use the power of the group" to increase visibility through shared expertise, the ERP/CRM Software Blogs has expanded significantly while maintaining its commitment to high-touch service. Co-founder Anya Ciecierski emphasized that creating the Member Success Manager role was an intentional decision to ensure members continue feeling supported, connected, and valued despite the platform's growth.
Van Der Linden brings decades of specific experience within the Microsoft Dynamics channel, having worked across nearly every aspect of the ecosystem. Her background includes marketing roles at Microsoft Dynamics partners and previous work with Dynamic Communities, where she supported one of the most well-known partner communities in the industry. This experience means she already understands the challenges partners face, including limited marketing resources and pressure to differentiate in a crowded marketplace.
"Judy understands this community because she's been part of it," said Ciecierski. "She's been a member of the blogs, and she's helped build community at scale. Our members won't be starting from scratch with her, there's already trust there." The personal connection between Van Der Linden and the ERP/CRM Software Blogs extends back more than 20 years, with Ciecierski noting that Van Der Linden served as her mentor during her early days in the Microsoft Dynamics channel.
As Member Success Manager, Van Der Linden will work directly with members to help them maximize their membership benefits, understand available opportunities, and navigate the evolving content and visibility landscape. This dedicated support role reflects the platform's ongoing commitment to community, trust, and long-term partner success as it continues expanding its global network of nearly 200 Microsoft Dynamics partners across ERP, CRM, and industry solutions.
The ERP/CRM Software Blogs operates through a collaborative publishing model that enables partners to share real-world insights, educate buyers, and strengthen long-term digital presence beyond traditional advertising. The platform focuses on organic reach, content performance, and community-driven marketing through its network of industry-focused content platforms.
