Nonprofits have a difficult time differentiating and positioning themselves in a world full of messages that are all trying to compete for people’s time and money. The investment of marketing is necessary to break through all of this noise! Marketing is the fuel necessary to grow a conduit for a cause, doing more good as a result. A nonprofit should view itself as a brand, not an organization. A method for effective branding is to use the IDEAS Process: Insights, Direction, Expression, Action, and Success.
