During our Communications Director Mentoring Program group call this week, we discussed ways to get program staff to take and share better photos. Here are several ideas from the group that I thought you could use too! If you do a lot of tabling, instead of having staff take photos of the table (SO. BORING.), create a photo frame with a hashtag or phrase on it that people who walk by can hold and pose with to show support for your organization.

I write about monthly donors a lot because it’s an important part of nonprofit fundraising. Monthly donations are more important than ever now. If you already have monthly donors, or any type of recurring donor, you’ve been receiving a steady stream of revenue as we continue to navigate through this economic downtown. You may have had events planned this spring that won’t bring in the money you had hoped for.

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." - Charles Dickens There are many things that are sinking my spirits this month: the loss of life to the virus, the economic disruption - both nationally and personally - the hassle and anxiety of trying to do anything outside the home. But there are some bright spots too ??. 1. I have a great community of readers to serve.

By Rosemary O’Neill , CMO of Social Strata, makers of the Crowdstack community platform. COVID-19 has had some unexpected consequences for our work lives. On one hand, it’s stopped everyone in their tracks physically, hunkered down at home, unable to travel. On the other hand, it’s sped up our virtual lives like a runaway train. Between Zoom video calls, dozens of Slack channels, and the (occasional) TikTok video with the kids, information is speeding past our cerebral cortex at an alarmin

At the beginning of 2020, I doubt any of us imagined our routines would become completely uprooted in a matter of days. Due to the global pandemic, “office life” is now seen as a fond memory, and our daily commute is a total of one minute ? or as long as it takes to walk from your bed to your desk. I was so excited to be able to work from home ? to only have to look professional from my waist-up, to not have to worry about prepping lunches for work, to get those extra minutes of sleep I’d usuall

Nearly ten years ago I made a new friend. It started out with an error. I wrote a blog post about the link between childlessness and planned giving. But I screwed up my math. Dr. James reached out to ‘help’ me catch the error and we struck up a dialogue via my blog. At that time I was just beginning to pivot my business. We were a marketing agency helping private sector CEOs generate, qualify and prioritize leads for relational sales.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

Most stores, restaurants, factories, salons, and bars in America will begin to open (likely) in the next 30-45 days. The world will be different. 30-40M people may still be out of work. Most people will be leery of sitting or standing as close as they once did. The way we touch merchandise, and each other, will change. We are entering into a period of time when many will head back to work.
