Keep in touch with parents and alumni.
How many alumni newsletters did your group send out last semester? We know, we know...everyone has the best of intentions. With GoZuus, sending a newsletter takes only a matter of minutes. Which means those good intentions are much more likely to come to fruition.
Easy as pie.
Ah...the dreaded newsletter. In the old days, someone had to decide to send one, hassle other members to write articles, edit and proof the articles, find suitable photos, lay everything out, send it to the printer, print mailing labels, affix stamps, then mail them out only to have hundreds show up at the house days later with a return to sender sticker. Ugh. And the dirtiest secret of all? After all that work, alumni don't really have time to read a long newsletter about your latest party.
GoZuus fixes all of this. Without the restrictions of postal mail, you can afford to send out a newsletter once a month, not once a year. And a monthly newsletter can be much shorter - perhaps only one well-chosen photo and a paragraph of text. In fact, you can probably put it together yourself without trying to harass other members to generate content!
So GoZuus newsletters are easier to write, and much quicker for alumni to read. Even better, with more frequent contact, alumni are more likely to stay involved, attend alumni functions, and support your group's financial needs. Oh, and did we mention this all works for parent newsletters as well?
Practically writes itself.
As if that wasn't easy enough, GoZuus practically writes the newsletter for you. Alumni can post updates on the site about major life events – engagements, new family additions – you know, the stuff alumni actually want to read about! For even greater impact, encourage a few to retell an old story from their days as an undergrad. When the time comes to send a newsletter, just check off the stories you want to include and send it on its way. They'll feel like the newsletter was actually written for them, and you'll feel like you didn't even have to lift a finger!
Makes you look great.
If you're used to laying out newsletters in a word processing program, you're in for a treat. GoZuus comes with professionally designed templates that look great in any e-mail program. We'll drop in your own photos and content, dress it up with your group's color and some artistic flair, and send them on their way. You'll be winning alumni relations awards in no time!
