2022 Meetings to be Held On-Line

 The 2022 Raising Insight User and CRM Strategy Meetings will be moved to a series of on-line sessions to be held from November through March.  Stay tuned for specific announcements.

On-Line Meeting Held June 2020

COVID Pandemic Impact on Gift Revenue

Over the weeks immediately following the start of the pandemic, we had conversations with institutions about what we were seeing in trends of revenue performance.  These questions were being asked of Advancement teams in the context of institutional budget adjustments.  Some were being asked for revised revenue forecasts – a challenging exercise given the unprecedented nature of the pandemic’s impact on the economy.


We reached out to representatives of Raising Insight institutions who agreed that this would be a valuable and timely topic for a group discussion.  The meetings objective was to share thoughts and insights.  Our thanks to the Raising Insight institutions that performed an analysis of historical information and were willing to share results and insights.

Raising Insight 2019 - Advancement CRM Strategy

Register for the 2019 Raising Insight Meetings

 This meeting was dedicated to presentations and discussions about advancement CRM planning and implementation.  Presentations were made by experienced industry consultants and by representatives from colleges and universities that have recently chosen and/or begun implementation of an advancement CRM - enabling considerable breadth and scope of discussion. 

  THANK YOU everyone for a very successful event! 


  Approximately 60 institutions participated (primarily mid-size colleges, large universities and systems).  The vast majority were specifically interested in replacing their legacy advancement (ERP) system with a contemporary 'CRM' system. 


Most Notable Quote (paraphrasing)
