Chances are that you’ve tried crowdfunding for your nonprofit, but it may have failed. Let’s explore how to make it a success.
Marketing IRL
Has your organization ever considered collaborative content creation? Here are four ways to create compelling collaborative content.
Nonprofit donors are increasingly immune to traditional marketing and advertising. Wherever we go, from billboards on the highway to pop-up ads on our favorite websites, countless brands vie for attention. As a result, we’ve learned to tune them out or avoid them. That's why interactive marketing is so effective.
Today, social media has the potential to be so much more than just a place where you post nonprofit status update pictures. It’s also a powerful tool for engagement and persuasion. The question is: How does your nonprofit unlock that potential?
Today's donors are savvy, skeptical and well-informed. As a result, they know when someone is trying to sell them something — including donating. So how do you motivate people to support your cause in a world of mass messaging? One way to do it is to go old school with word-of-mouth and align it with your fundraising.
Digital and web marketing are excellent tools for promoting your nonprofit and reaching more potential donors. They also provide a path and a place where you can engage with the public on a deep level, building relationships and generating goodwill. However, it's becoming essential to do it ethically.
