"Brand is the difference between a cup of coffee and a cup of Starbucks" You (and your nonprofit) have a different "brand" for everyone you work with: clients, donors, community leaders, funders, etc. Even your staff and board members have assigned a "brand" to the organization, and they aren't necessarily the same. We'll ask (and answer) three questions at this workshop:
- What is a brand, after all?
- What do you think is your organization's brand for your key constituencies, and is that the one you want them to see?
- How do you get to the brand you want?
We'll discuss the elements of branding, how your audiences differ in their perceptions (and why that matters), the more authentic but less discussed techniques of branding, and some of the formal aspects of branding. Please sign up early to receive short thought provoking articles on branding that will be discussed at the workshop. Presenter: Rick Schwartz (www.SchwartzTalk.com) has worked closely with charitable people, foundations and nonprofits for 40 years.
