Fundraising is important in any campaign! Make sure to consider how much you will need to raise for an impactful campaign.

❇ The Trevi Fountain in Rome accumulates about €1.5 million annually from the coins tossed into its waters by visitors. ❇ 1️⃣ Daily, €3,000 in coins are thrown into the fountain (City of Rome). 2️⃣ With a quick calculation, we could say that the average annual maintenance costs (regular + extraordinary works) of the fountain is approximately € 150,000. 3️⃣ So the fountain (250+ years old) makes every year 10x of what it costs. And it’s all because of marketing. 📽 In 1954, the film 'Three Coins in the Fountain' popularized the Trevi coin toss, and ever since, tourists from all around the world have left spontaneous donations in the fountain, hoping to find love or to visit the city again. ➡ Long story short: good marketing matters, even when it comes to cities. PS: all the money collected from the fountain is actually donated to charity.

Setting our clients up for success means providing them with all the necessary tools for quick and easy implementation of their brand. In today's world of ever-increasing content demands, this is crucial.

It has long been an old adage in marketing mantras that: "𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹, 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗱𝗼 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱!" Whether you have a dedicated charity or change it up every year, ALL COMPANIES {𝓃ℴ 𝓂𝒶𝓉𝓉ℯ𝓇 𝓉𝒽ℯ 𝓈𝒾𝓏ℯ} should have a cause they are passionate about to help make their community a better place. Brands and the people who represent them should have a humanitarian spirit toward their customer base, prospects, and the world. This type of investment is the fuel that drives brand allegiance AND shows a human/caring side to your business. #giveback #greatmarketing #themostwonderfultimeoftheyear #corporategiving #marketing #bestpractices

Introducing team members on your social media, and including them on your website is such an important thing to do as a funeral director business. Most people have never met a funeral director before, let alone been inside a funeral home - it’s a really daunting thing for a family to have to do. So by introducing them to your online community is a great way to make families feel more at ease and comfortable about speaking to you when they need to. You can use formal, posed photographs of your team in uniform, but it’s also a great idea to show your team members in more relaxed settings, such as undertaking day-to-day tasks to arrange a funeral, or getting involved in a community activity or fundraising event. #funeralmarketingclub #funeralmarketing #funeralhomemarketing #funeraldirector #funeralhome #socialmediamarketing Avens Marketing

Opinion: With so many job cuts happening right now, I genuinely do think that marketing is an area businesses (it does depend on industry) should continue supporting. Marketing used to be looked as an overhead, however, since social networking has become a huge trend where businesses can connect and acquire customers, it seems it’s evidently an area to invest in. It’s most useful in the charity sector as it generates awareness for a cause, which in turn brings in revenue/donations. Having said this, some industries of course do not rely on marketing to attract customers/clients, such as within construction. If you’re experiencing financial constraints within the business, contact me on info@hrhabitat.co.uk to understand your options. #redundancy

I judge books by their covers. Do you? Get a good book cover for your charity. While it's generally helpful life advice to avoid judging on outward appearances, the truth is that the majority of people do this with most things that can be judged (people, products, brands, food and... books!). So you can't assume that your good cause will be enough to get the attention it deserves without paying attention to the 'cover'. Upgrading your book cover will get more people 'reading', because they will judge your charity or purposeful business to be something worth looking at and engaging with. Do you judge books by their covers? #Branding #BrandIdentity #Marketing 📸 Speaking of good book covers, and good books, I've just finished this brand new book by Benjamin George Doherty and it's a banger - just like the custom cover artwork, get it on your list!
