So what?
Rationale
• CRC shouldn’t be the only responsible organization
  for developing the community but the local
  corporations and universities are too
   – Rational for corporations to join: represent your
      business well in the community- strive for giving
      back and being socially responsible
   – Rational for universities: enhancing Cincinnati
      environment, student involvement, development
      and growth as well rounded individuals
   – The whole city can put effort in
Tracking and measuring
• Who, how many, and how much
   – Incentive plan promotion usage
• Track attendance per event
   – At CRC locations, card swipes, check-ins online,
     coupons codes
• Website tracking and analytics
• See updates on corporate
 commitment memberships

Results and goals

  were familiar with the CRC and heard of it through
  multiple channels (TV, radio, WOM, newspapers,
  websites, etc.).

• Increase donations, attendance, overall community
  engagement and involvement

Editor's Notes

  1. Amin Shawki: slides 1-18Matt Mino: slides 18-36Matt Pasquino: slides 36-end
  2. Metropolitans and High Hopes/Great ExpectationsIn order to understand how to motivate advocates to know how beneficial the CRC is for the community, we need better understanding of what the community itself is all about
  3. What all goes into the “community” besides what CRC helps with
  4. Schools and corporations are a huge part of any community, and help to build it too

  12. Involved with student organizations not only to build student participation, volunteers, and awareness but to keep the student body engaged with the CRC and expansionFinding and developing advocates early and when ready to make an impact; students are driven and want to make positive change for their future
