It's always a great day when we get to facilitate a storytelling workshop for an incredible organization. 🤩 Today's workshop was for our friends at The Appellate Project (TAP) - a national nonprofit whose mission is to empower law students of color to thrive in the appellate field. Through case studies, story frameworks and group exercises, they left with a literal (virtual) board full of ideas to implement! Want to take your organization's storytelling to the next level? We can help you put on a workshop that does just that. Let's collaborate! #Storytelling #SocialImpact #Nonprofits #Philanthropy #Marketing #CommunityOutreach

📬 Expert in Lockbox, Caging, & Intelligent Data Capture for fundraising 💹 I help non profits increase revenue by accelerating donation processing 🏆4X Inc. 5000 Honoree 👨👨👦👦 3 great kids, 1 patient husband
In fundraising, storytelling isn't just an art; it's a strategic tool. Here’s how simplifying our approach transformed our campaigns, a method I learned from my friend and mentor, Mike Thompson: 🔹 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐈𝐭 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐕𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝: Mike taught me to write as if I'm conversing with a friend over coffee, using plain language that paints a vivid picture. This shift away from jargon made our letters more relatable and engaging. It's about making each word count and ensuring that every sentence helps the reader visualize the impact of their contribution. 🔹 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫'𝐬 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲: Mike emphasized that every fundraising letter should be more than just an ask; it should be a journey. Start by aligning with what matters to them, build your case with compelling narratives, and then clearly show how they can make a difference. It’s about guiding them through the decision-making process, making it easy and fulfilling to take action. By focusing on these principles, we're not just asking for donations; we're inviting our readers into a story where they are the key players. It turns passive readers into active participants, ready to join us in making a difference. #Fundraising #Nonprofit #Storytelling #DonorEngagement #Philanthropy

In nonprofit marketing a personal touch can get lost if it doesn't connect your organization to its donors, activists and a social community that may have influence. Create a message that narrows your large mission to a singular personal story. It is important for your audience to know there are people behind the brand. Here's how to do it: https://lnkd.in/gfKSS6HU #nonprofit #communications #strategy

How can your nonprofit stand out? 🤩 ANSWER: Make your communications mission-centric. 📽 Share the feelings of those you serve. Use direct quotes. This can be in the form of an infographic or a short video. 🎨 Paint a picture through storytelling. Use descriptive words. Describe the change you seek to create in your community. Inspire your reader. 👊 Explain the community transformation you provide. Speak to the reader in first person as if you are only speaking to them one-on-one. Invite them to be your partner. And finally… MAKE THE ASK! 🤝 #consulting #nonprofitconsulting #nonprofitconsultant #nonprofit #nonprofitfundraising #fundraising #communications #philanthropy #storyteller #womanownedbusiness #businessowner #drummerconsulting

It has been said that the biggest challenge facing nonprofit marketing isn't walletshare or even apathy, but rather attention. While I am not certain it is the largest issue out there, I will concede "attention" is a critical challenge facing philanthropic endeavors. In a world inundated with content, capturing and maintaining attention is a necessity. Our charge is to craft compelling narratives, evoke emotions, and spark engagement to stand out amidst the noise. Attention isn't passive; it's earned through authenticity, relevance, and storytelling. By understanding and harnessing this commodity, nonprofits can not only raise awareness but also inspire action and drive growth and success. #NonprofitMarketing #AttentionEconomy #ImpactMatters
