Earn your tier. Don't pick it.

Every school starts at Foundation. Partner and Strategic are unlocked by measurable engagement — and tiers can be relegated if commitments slip. The harder you work, the more you keep.

In every plan

Everything a school needs — from day one.

We ship the whole community platform on your first pilot day. Tiers change how much heavy lifting your ASM does; they do not gate features.

Branded portal

Your school's logo, colours, typography, hero imagery and programme name across every screen.

Alumni directory

Searchable by year group, region, industry and skills. Verified profiles and privacy controls.

Events & RSVPs

Reunions, class events, career panels — with ticketing, waitlists and attendance reporting.

Mentorship

Structured mentor requests, matching queues, safeguarding notes and progress logging.

WhatsApp-first ops

Class and year WhatsApp groups, broadcast approvals, delivery reporting — 94% SA reach.

Business & job board

Alumni-owned businesses directory, verified job listings and applicant tracking.

POPIA-compliant

Consent logging, row-level tenant isolation, encrypted at rest, audit logs and self-service export.

Revenue dashboard

Live view of alumni subs, sponsor income, bursary pool and the ASM's engagement metrics.

Onboarding timeline

From signed pilot to a self-funding community in 12 weeks.

Your first 90 days are run by an Alumni Success Manager alongside your Champion. Nothing goes live without your approval.

  1. Week 0
    Kick-off & pilot agreement

    Sign the pilot agreement and Data Processing Agreement, appoint your Champion, and agree brand assets and comms tone.

  2. Weeks 1–2
    Data intake & cleanup

    Hand us your alumni list in any format — CSV, spreadsheet, PDF or exported SIS. We de-duplicate, format phone numbers, verify emails and flag gaps for your Champion to fix.

  3. Weeks 2–3
    Branding & portal build

    Your white-labelled portal is built with your logo, colours, hero imagery, programme name and welcome copy. You approve before anything is published.

  4. Weeks 3–4
    Invitation wave

    First WhatsApp + email invitations go out with your Champion's signature. We monitor delivery, respond to queries and iterate copy weekly.

  5. Weeks 4–6
    Verification & activation

    Alumni verify profiles, join class-year groups and complete their first mentorship or event RSVP. We report daily on activation and address blockers.

  6. Weeks 6–8
    Sponsor & recruiter warm-up

    ASM introduces relevant sponsors and recruiters, prepares a shortlist of packages and drafts your first launch event.

  7. Weeks 8–10
    First event & first revenue

    First live event (reunion, careers panel or launch dinner). First alumni subscriptions and sponsor invoices flow — with the bursary pool visible on every receipt.

  8. Weeks 10–12
    Pilot review & tier gate

    Full performance review with the head, Champion and ASM. We assess Foundation → Partner promotion gates and set the plan for the next quarter.

  • Setup or onboarding fees
    Portal build, branding, data cleanup and ASM setup are all included.

    Champion and alumni support is bundled with your ASM allocation.

12 weeks to a self-funding alumni community.
