About DevelopmentPro

---

 AlumGrow works with advancement and marketing professionals every day in the education industry. Among them, we see a large number who struggle with significant daily challenges.

In an increasingly competitive education environment, many are exhausted and completely burnt out by the relentless demands of enrolment marketing, fundraising and alumni engagement.

More still are frustrated with the inconsistent resourcing and investment in their advancement and marketing programs by their institutions, leading to many leaving the industry.

It becomes difficult to escape the long hours and do what’s important to them – like spending more time on developing their craft and skill sets, enhancing their programs, or even spending more time with family and friends, or on their fitness and mental health.

Others feel overwhelmed by the pace of change that’s sweeping the global education marketing and advancement industry – and confused about what they need to do to respond.

And many feel quite isolated in their profession, with the worries and responsibilities often falling solely on their shoulders - and with little professional guidance.

It’s a challenging mix. And if it sounds familiar – and you’re in the thick of it – it’s incredibly hard to see a way forward. But there is an answer. And it’s called DevelopmentPro.
