Hear Hear?! A Podcast Interview About Our School Software Solutions!

Courtney Grainger

A few weeks ago, we were approached to participate in a podcast for The Turn To Smith Blog! In my mind, I was like, “me!  Podcast??!!  Yes!”  If you haven’t met me in person yet, I’m a talker, especially when I’m passionate about the topic.  So when we’re talking about non-profits evaluating, implementing, and utilizing software, it's probably in my top 5 favorite things to do.  Non-profits, but especially schools, are crucial players in our society.  I know that a future president is attending or will attend one of the independent schools using our solutions and wow, that’s pretty awesome to realize.


Working with Rob Smith was a really great experience that I got to share with my colleague, Jeff Sobers, talking about our products and what they have to offer.  It was also very interesting since it was my first time.  We used a combination of Skype and conference lines to get the audio together.  (Best moment actually got cut out though…I got so excited I took a deep breath into the phone and it sounded to Rob like something awful happened….good to know I need to breath more frequently. :-) ) Thanks to Rob for enabling us to talk about what we are most passionate about, helping schools with our software!


I hope you can take a few minutes and take a listen! We talk about Blackbaud's school solutions. The blog is aimed at the business officer in an organization but it's a great overview for anyone who makes decisions within the school.
