In February I spoke at my alma mater, Eastern New Mexico University. During the Q&A I had an exchange with a university staff member. I told him exactly why I, as an alumnus, had never given a penny in support of the university and how they could take that information and multiply their alumni and endowment support by 3x or more over the next 5-10 years.
In context, this was directed toward universities. Realistically it can absolutely apply to your business or brand as well. Enjoy!
