SUPPORTS

How should I engage with my Alumni?

The best way to keep your alumni engaged and supported is by using our online alumni platform powered by Mighty Networks! In addition to amazing webinars, workshops, coaching, and resources to help alumni build their businesses, the platform provides a great way for you to engage your cohort and alumni by keeping them up-t0-date on local events, opportunities, and supports.

In most cases, setting up a separate CO.STARTERS alumni Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram account in addition to your existing organizational account(s) is not something we recommend, for a few reasons:

One of the goals of CO.STARTERS is to help you grow your local startup community. In most cases the best strategy will be to point alumni and supporters back to your local brand and keep your communication channels direct and clear.

In addition to growing your local startup community, we are growing a national brand, and one of the primary ways we are doing that is through social media. Your organization and your alumni can benefit from connection to the CO.STARTERS national network. We encourage you to promote the national CO.STARTERS social media presence through your existing local promotional channels, by tagging and referencing the brand in related posts. The national CO.STARTERS social media accounts can be referenced at the following urls:
