Triple REGISTRATIONS
....in YOUR Online Community!
Would you benefit from having 80 percent of your
alumni registered in your online community?
I'm sure you answered, YES! Our surveys show the average alumni online community has under 20-30 percent of their total alumni population registered in their online community. (private colleges are trending slightly higher)
Anyone with an online community now recognizes it takes time and effort to grow their community. You have to use traditional and online marketing strategies to encourage graduates, young alumni, boomers and retired alumni to register in your online community. It’s a fact of life for private online communities like yours!
• So what are you doing and how is working?
• How many years will it take to get 80 percent of your alumni registered?
• What is preventing you from reaching that number in just 3 years?
There are FIVE reasons why you should mount a comprehensive
strategy to increase registrations in your online community.
- Increased communication
- Increased connectedness
- Increase stewardship
- Increased contributions
- Increased competition!
One single email address enables you to communicate more frequently with your alumni/members which will give them a feeling of being more connected with your institution and result in more contributions.
An email is a valuable commodity. The savings in postage, printing and paper cost alone is worth nearly $14 per email address each year!
Today, you compete with MySpace, Facebook, Linkedin and other online communities. You need a plan, a strategy to connect and engage alumni who are spending time at these sites.
