Our business opportunities have been available for almost a year, and have received quite a few accolades in its early stages from businesses we’ve helped grow and alumni and friends who discover a new service they might not have found otherwise!

So what are these great opportunities?

Business Hogs, our online business and services directory, provides an opportunity for alumni and friends to support those businesses managed by YOU of A graduates and friends. For businesses, very reasonable advertising rates are available to reach thousands of University of Arkansas Family members! Check it out at www.businesshogs.com or download the iPhone app to access Razorback friendly businesses from your phone.

Interested in promoting your business to thousands of Arkansas Alumni? Consider a business membership, or sponsor an event! Business memberships are the latest way to connect to the University of Arkansas and receive discounts on advertising, sponsorships and other opportunities. Sponsorships opportunities are also available with a wide variety of events and sponsorship levels.

Here is what a few of our business partners have to say:

“Working with the Arkansas Alumni Association on behalf of Butterfield Trail Village and The Dickson was wonderful. The staff was organized, the communication was great, and the events were awesome. But the best part was the success of the sponsorships for our clients. They were both very pleased and look forward to continuing the partnership with the Arkansas Alumni Association in 2014.”

-Susan Wallace: Owner/Partner
Vantage Point Communications, LLC

“Sponsoring Arkansas Alumni Association programs and events is a smart investment for your business. Pig Sooie Scramble sponsorship was by far the best marketing we’ve ever done for brand recognition. For client stewardship and acquisition, our sponsorship of the faculty and staff program, Workin’ like a Hog, has helped connect us to current and future clients in a way no other event could provide.”

-Jim Edmiaston
WealthPath Investments, LLC

“We look for ways to connect with alumni from schools around the world to showcase our unique and relevant product, and the Arkansas Alumni Association by far has the best offerings for exposing your business and made it EASY to begin gaining exposure.”
