Managing and scaling a non-profit is a full time job. Rather than being bogged down with the details of your marketing strategy, let AlphaGraphics in Logan take care of all your signage, print and marketing needs. Don’t know where to start? Here are a few cost-effective ways you can easily manage, promote and scale your non-profit.
Monetary funding is the keystone of any non-profit, which
Events and galas play a large role in industry, which is why you should never second guess where and who your staff and volunteers are. To make your staff and volunteers stand out from the crowd at any gathering, use these simple identifiers, such as branded apparel that can not only set your staff apart, but help attendees know who they can go to for direction or questions. In addition, name badges and business cards can offer a personal connection by providing full names and contact information.
Attracting your prospective audience and sparking action towards your cause can be done in many ways, one being effective signage. Spread awareness of your mission by creating weather resistant vinyl banners that are a great indoor/outdoor way to convey important information. A-frame signs and retractable banners are also a good solution due to their mobility and adjustability, custom designed for any event, trade show or office lobby. Don’t forget to capitalize on floor decals where wandering eyes might go – direct foot traffic or designate areas of donation and distribution.
Increased membership comes with increased passion behind your non-profit. Portray your story through tailored messaging, flyers and appeal mailers. Targeted appeal mailers and postcards are a great way to inform and invite potential members to special events and experience the “why” behind your organization. A good alternative are brochures and flyers that inform prospective members of your organization’s mission and goals.
Often more times than not, the community behind a non-profit is the driving force to its success. Get more members and volunteers involved by hosting events and fundraisers. Event invitations to community events not only look good, but promote involvement and attendance. When you’re not hosting events, involve your membership by sharing annual reports and where the organization is at a financial standpoint. Transparency is key.
Since donations are what mostly keeps nonprofits afloat, it’s crucial to show appreciation, showing how every dollar will be used to directly help the cause. Not only is this just good ethics, but might also encourage additional donations in the future. To do so, consider creating a customized calendar using artwork from an event or donation recipient, or perhaps a handwritten thank you note to show personal appreciation. To go one step further, assemble gift items into a custom printed box that will surely make a lasting impression.
