Partnerships are one way to help manage the ever-changing needs of a college campus. The different seasons that exist in higher education are one aspect that must be understood when working on a college campus. While the campus buzzes to life at the start of the semester, a slower pace is maintained in summer when the students are gone.
Behind the scenes, these seasons of a campus can lead to complications in labor and services. When your campus is built to support a student body through the semester, it can be difficult to maintain an efficient operation in the summer.
Auxiliary services like bookstores, mail, and print can generate revenue for campuses. However, maintaining staff for these areas is difficult to do in the different seasons and can decrease the revenue received by running these services 'in-house.'
One way campuses can create efficient and profitable auxiliary services is by partnering with a third party to run their print and mail services along with the campus store. Consolidating the three services leads to a variety of benefits!
A simple way to consolidate these three services is through adding a partner! A partnership can help you merge and streamline your print shop, mail service, and campus store processes.
