Why "Right Now" Is the Perfect Time

If you’re unhappy with your paper-based scholarship management process or software solution, what has held you back from making a change? For many, it’s timing. It just never seems to be the right time to evaluate new options and embark on an implementation. There’s always too much to do, some bigger priority, or a sense of being overwhelmed before even beginning the process.

We’ve all felt it. But the truth is, the best time to make a change like this is NOW - no matter what else is going on. Here’s why:

• Easiest Implementation Ever:

We’ve carefully structured our Springboard implementation experience to make it as simple and carefree for you as possible. We train you using your real data, so all of your scholarships are set up exactly the way you want once training is over. The whole process takes about two to four months*. During that time, we’re doing all the data entry, so you can keep on managing scholarships exactly the way you always have - no interruptions. All told, you’ll personally spend about just a few hours on AwardSpring implementation, broken up into super-manageable one-hour and half-hour meetings over the course of a few months

"The SpringBoard implementation team was extremely helpful. They were patient with me and persistent in making sure our site was configured and I was properly trained. They also did all the heavy lifting with my IT team!"

-Elizabeth Gilmer, East Georgia State College

Painless implementation is just the first step. Once you’re up and running, you can expect several benefits right away, but there are two that really make it worth the effort to get to this stage as quickly as possible.

• Cost Savings & Efficiency

AwardSpring customers typically save 20–30% when they switch from a competitor. On top of that, adding AwardSpring’s universally beloved support team to your process is like adding another full-time employee at no extra cost. With a new online process, office supply costs - on paper, ink, even staples - are reduced. Best of all, administrators can expect to spend 50% less time on scholarship management once they’re using AwardSpring; that’s 80+ hours per year for the average 2-year school administrator. Freeing up that time creates the opportunity to focus on more important, interesting work while saving more money than our platform costs!

"Because everything is more streamlined and efficient, I’m able to spend more time being innovative, creative, and entrepreneurial in working toward our overall program goals."

-Nicole Ferris, Pierce College
