Refer Candidates
Those who volunteer as Alumni Ambassadors have one thing in common: they’re already passionate about GSBC. What GSBC aims to do through the program is recognize and incentivize you for sharing your passion (you likely already do!)
Here are some ideas on how to engage GSBC prospects:
- Think about who you already know who could benefit from the GSBC experience
- Provide them with GSBC literature on programs that interest them (provided to you upon signing up)
- Share your personal experiences of how GSBC positively impacted your career
- Encourage contacts to enroll or reach out to GSBC for more information
- If they do, be sure they name you as who referred them!
- Follow up with them about their banking school plans the next time you see them
Represent GSBC at Industry Events
- Take your ‘Ask Me About GSBC’ postcards to hand out
- Wear a GSBC logo apparel item like your Alumni jacket, lapel pin or something from GSBC’s Lands’ End Apparel Store
- GSBC does not expect you to hard-sell; it’s best to merely have a conversation!
- If you need some talking points, email GSBC
Engage on Social Media
Share your passion for GSBC with the cyber world! Utilize #GSBCAmbassador and/or tag GSBC in a post.
- GSBC is on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn
- Announce that you’re attending the event by sharing a social media post (use #GSBCAmbassador)
- Share photos of fellow GSBC alumni and/or prospective students when you’re out and about at industry events (use #GSBCAmbassador)
- Want to spread the word from the comfort of your phone or desk? GSBC would appreciate a good Facebook review
