Build Your Brand & Enhance Your Impact

The Build Your Brand & Enhance Your Impact Package is designed for direct service nonprofits, institutions, and community grantmaking foundations who are struggling for awareness and clarity of services among their target audiences. This package provides a complete brand platform for an organization, foundation, or institution in need of a brand refresh and a new key message platform to reach clients, employees, or partners. The services included in the package include strategy, message, identity and logo updates, and a communications plan that defines key audiences’ paths to engagement.

Find Your Donor

The Find Your Donor Package is focused on identifying your ideal funder and creating a strategy to build appreciation for your value. There is a generational transition occurring that puts many non-profits in the position of having to pivot their pitch for the next generation of donors. Strategy, messaging, and outreach to this next generation are exactly what this package delivers. The strategy and campaigns that are the outcome of this work are intended to help non-profits transform one-time donors into long-term givers.Enrollment Package: Brand Strategy, Communications Plan, Enrollment Campaign Concepts & Build-Out, Media Plan & Buy, Reporting & Analytics

Raise Capital

If your organization is in need of funding for capital improvements or expanding your impact on those you serve, we recommend the Raise Capital Package. It’s ideal for direct service and institutional non-profits looking to increase appreciation of their value to the community and attract large-dollar donors.
