nonprofit & cause marketing
awareness & fundraising for international nonprofit
challenge:
Create an integrated marketing strategy, including tactical execution plan, focusing on fundraising for a cause related international health organization.

insights:
Fundraising for research and the facilitation of life saving surgeries is a difficult endeavor. Nonprofit marketing, while there some similarities, is quite different than traditional brand and/or product marketing. Insights include the necessity for a clear annual plan, marketing calendar and digital presence - all on a "shoestring budget." The successful appeal to donors and potential donors is highly dependent on targeting, timing and imagery.
approach:
After establishing a comprehensive fundraising strategy and developing an annual marketing calendar the real work begins. We serve up communications via website, social media, public relations and direct mail. Communicating directly to an established donor base, while expanding our targeting to likely donors. We deliver relevant imagery and detailed information as to the foundation's vision, purpose and mission. Our appeal messaging was emotionally, spiritually and mentally compelling - delivering the right message to the right audience at the right time.
