About the Episode

In this episode, Zach sits down with Ashley Budd,  a marketing director at Cornell University, to discuss the past, present, and future of Advancement Marketing in Higher Education. 

Ashley revisits the early days of working in marketing and communications and recounts how she had to secure the social handles on Facebook and Instagram for the Rochester Institute of Technology, and also unpacks:

  • What it’s like raising money at an Ivy Leage school
  • How marketing and communication strategies with alumni and donors need to be reimagined
  • Some ideas she has for creating more meaningful relationships with students before they become alumni
  • And some hot takes she has on the future of higher ed marketing more generally.

Ashley invites you to connect with her on LinkedIn and to sign up for her popular newsletter, Ashley in your Inbox, at ashleybudd.com.
