Digital marketing is so crucial for nonprofits. The digital space can directly and effectively support goals around volunteer recruitment, membership outreach, fundraising initiatives, and so much more.
We LOVE working alongside nonprofit organizations. We love it so much that we stay up-to-date on ever-changing trends in lots of digital platforms to make sure our work is leveraging every possible opportunity.
For instance, did you know that some nonprofits can receive $10,000 per month in digital advertising dollars? This opportunity, and many more exist for these great organizations, and we are here to help!
Digital Marketing is a No-Brainer for Your Nonprofit Organization
People turn to the internet to learn, discover, and connect with organizations. This is a fact.
Potential volunteers are searching for volunteer opportunities, then stalking you on social media to see if you’d be a good fit. Potential sponsors are searching online, then checking out your website to determine your credibility. Donors are going to your website to give. Last year alone, people in the US donated $31 billion online. If you’re hosting events, people are going online to find event details, buy tickets, and ‘check in’ when they arrive.
A great example of nonprofits leveraging the heck out of social media is the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. This campaign used digital tactics to spread awareness, and it worked.
People love to connect to meaningful causes online, share their thoughts, and show their friends that they care. Give them a reason and the means to engage.
