2.b: Reallocation/Deployment of Advancement Resources for Strategic Priorities Keep Development Writer (critical communication need) Need more support assistance (growing base of alumni/donors, more outreach and engagement anticipated) Scholarship Office changes (already in place); more consistent communication with departments and donors Move printed docs to on-line (exploring cost savings) One less Foundation Board meeting off-site (post-Campaign) Combined Foundation/Alumni Association Board meeting
2.c: Criteria to Evaluate Effectiveness of Advancement Reallocations Dollars raised in support of specific areas Attendance/follow-up communication from events Website page views, quantity of stories posted Gift officer contacts, visits, proposals submitted Scholarship applications and awards Do more events equate to more dollars in the door? If we communicate more often, do we have more people at our events/functions?
2.d: Criteria for Advancement Strategic Savings Giving officer retention tied to performance (successful solicitations) Annual fund outreach (calls, mail, social media, etc.) against dollars delivered Dollars in the door vs. expenses incurred per project/event Cost of printed publications/notices/invitations vs. on-line version of the same Planned gift marketing responses tied to cost to distribute Size of gift following alumni/stewardship events
