The University of Oklahoma
Consortium for Student Retention Data Exchange
Dear Colleague,
The 4
thAnnual National Symposium on Student Retention is going to be in Little Rock, Arkansas this year
from September 29 though October 1, 2008. You are invited to join us there as an exhibitor or a sponsor.
This symposium will provide you with meaningful opportunities to market your products and services while
supporting higher education’s efforts to improve student success.
This conference is sponsored by the Consortium for Student Retention Data Exchange at the University of
Oklahoma. http://csrde.ou.edu Because of our historical emphasis on benchmarking, you’ll find our
attendees to be
highly motivated
and actively
seeking evidence based solutions, products and
services
that can help their institutions move forward.
You’ll also find that many of our attendees are
executive decision makers at their institutions
. We
typically have presidents, VPs, AVPs, and Directors of Institutional Research, Enrollment Management and
Retention, Academic Affairs, and Student Development from 2-year and 4-year institutions in attendance.
I’m enclosing a list of the job titles and the institutions that were represented at last year’s symposium in
Milwaukee so you can see for yourself.
You may have marketed at mega-conferences where participants are in such a rush to get to dinner, the
beach, or the golf outing that you don’t have any opportunity to build a relationship. Our conference is
intimate and content-focused
by design. We have around three hundred attendees who rave about the
networking and productive nature of the symposium. You’ll be pleased with the opportunity it will give you to
market
face-to-face
to this audience. You can participate in one of two ways:
Exhibit or Sponsor
.
How can exhibiting or sponsoring at the National Symposium further your business?
•
Connect with three hundred motivated attendees including many decision makers from a variety of
two-year and four-year institutions.
•
Bring your products and services to an interested audience for an up-close and personal look at your
unique capabilities during a product briefing or information session.
•
Build relationships and network as you attend concurrent sessions, meals, and other activities with
attendees.
•
Gain broader exposure for your new products and services.
•
Position your company as a market leader.
•
Fruitful use of your valuable time in a professional and fun atmosphere
How can you get onboard? Let me provide you with a link where you can
download exhibitor and sponsor
information
: http://csrde.ou.edu/web/symposium/ or if you prefer we’ll be glad to email it to you. Drop me a
note at
csrde@ou.edu
By design we must limit the number of exhibitors, so please
respond by July 1,
2008
to take advantage of this opportunity.
Thank you for your time. Hope to see you in Little Rock.
