BUZZ's Inside the Hive: Marketing Tips That Give Nonprofits More Buzz

We often relegate nonprofits and our charitable giving to the Christmas season when, perhaps, we ourselves feel more charitable. But the work of nonprofits isn't confined to just the month of December. It's year-round. On today's show, BUZZ creator Michael Hemphill features two upcoming days when you can learn about — and hopefully support — hundreds of nonprofit organizations that are working daily to enhance the quality of life in our community.To talk up GIVE Roanoke on April 19 and Give Local NRV on June 28-29, we chat with the event organizers: Alison Jorgenson of Council of Community Services, and Jess Wirgau of the Community Foundation of the New River Valley.Are you a nonprofit with an event that we could help promote? Or a marketing problem we could help fix?

And if enough people don't know about them, don't believe in them, don't support them — in short, if they lack BUZZ — they suffer and die.

In schools and higher education development we are starting to see more fundraising through Giving Days. There are clear benefits to creating a focal point for donations to a particular need, at one moment in time, and to do so digitally. To help fundraisers who are weighing up the idea of organising a Giving Day, I'm excited to share my recent interview with Mel Bushell, Director of Development at the Portsmouth Grammar School (PGS). In March 2021, PGS organised what was at the time the most successful giving day ever achieved by a UK school, raising £280,000 to pay for bursaries. It included match funding from a major donor, and it was a huge team effort. Indeed, the 653 donations were from a broad range of supporters, and more than half of them gave for the first time. Here, Mel shares how they did it, her advice and reflects on what she learned. If you'd like to share this episode because you think it will help other schools, universities and charities – THANK YOU! - we are both on Linked In and on twitter Mel is @MelanieBowran and I am @woods_rob.

To help kickstart year-end giving, many communities host Local Giving Days, also known as Days of Giving. For example, upcoming giving days include Colorado Gives Day in Colorado, GAgives Day in Georgia, and Give to the Max Day in Minnesota. Even if you don’t have a local giving day coming up in your community, Giving Tuesday is coming up on December 1 as the International Day of Giving, celebrated all over the world to support nonprofits. This week on the Nonprofit Jenni Show, we’ll share an example of a local giving day fundraising campaign, and talk about four reasons nonprofit leaders shy away from Giving Tuesday.

Do you have a local 24-hour Day of Giving coming up this spring, like The Big Payback in Middle Tennessee? This episode is Part 3 of our 4-week series about local giving days, and Jenni is outlining some of the biggest reasons that nonprofit leaders in her community are dreading The Big Payback: The same nonprofit always seems to “win” the day every year, so it feels really hard to make an impact. Nonprofits don’t get to keep 100% of the funds they raise during the Giving Day. Some nonprofits have just hosted (or are about to host) their spring fundraising event too close to the Day of Giving. Some nonprofit leaders feel disappointed by the results of last year’s Giving Day. Listen for Jenni’s advice if you’re feeling discouraged for some of the same reasons!

Chris Strub is the creator beyond “50 States, 100 Days: The Film”, a documentary that chronicles the life-changing adventure that Chris Strub took to work with nonprofits nationwide in the summer of 2015. Chris also authored ’50 States, 100 Days: The Book’ and today is known as the Giving Day Guy, partnering with communities of nonprofits around the United States to help them use live-streaming video to connect in real time with their audiences during 24-hour online giving days.  Beyond his work with nonprofits, Chris is a sought-after speaker, a Forbes contributor, and is widely known as an expert on creating engagement through organic social media. During our interview we discuss the origins of Chris’ mindset, how to leverage social media to create real relationships, giving out loud, and much, much more.   Places to Find Chris: On Instagram https://www.instagram.com/chrisstrub/ (@ChrisStrub) On Twitter https://twitter.com/ChrisStrub (@Chris Strub)   Show Notes: [3:00] minute: Set the stage for us first, what was life like for you growing up, and what was the mindset around money and success and giving that was instilled in you? Raised in a healthy family with a close relationship with his parents. Treat people how you want to be treated, use respect. Morals most important; work hard to create larger financial return. Where and how Chris met Dorothy. Meeting someone in real life so important. [7:30] minute: You are really known for being an expert at creating relationships with people through social media. If someone is in a position where they are just starting a business and don’t have the ability to travel to a lot of events right away, how can they leverage social media to create relationships? Creating local meet ups through social media. See that return on investment locally and then move onto regional travel after that. Don’t be intimidated by the larger events as the smaller ones can often be the most impactful. [10:00] minute: So let’s shift gears and tell me the story of how this 50 States, 100 days adventure, how was that inspired and what sorts of organizations were you working with? In 2015 Chris quit his job and visited non-profits in all 50 states in a 100 day road trip. Made a film about it.  Inspired by his friend and his organization Payaway Layaway, decided he needed to change more people’s lives.  “Why not go? What’s stopping me? Nothing.” Worked with organizations of all sizes and all different types. [13:45] minute: When you give out load, you inspire other people. The perception of giving in secret has downsides. The power in giving out loud is immense. Most are shy about wanting their stories told or their efforts noticed.  Explanation of Giving Days [16:45] minute: You have a backround in newspapers and you said in your book that you knew how to make a story compelling, so could you share with our listeners what some of those elements are? Did all his own PR and messaging during his trip. Local news outreach; they didn’t need to care where else he had been because he is there and with them. Having someone else do it for him would have felt sterile. [19:30] minute: Majority of my listeners are online business owners, so for them, how can they leverage the power of storytelling with media and their own content?  Starts with video. People want to connect with people.  Businesses want to support the other businesses around them. What are you creating? Not just a video, but a series of videos. [21:45] minute: I’m curious what your strategies are in creating consistent engaging content. Your time can be pulled in so many directions, so what tips do you have for busy entrepreneurs who struggle with getting that content out day to day? Keep up with the people who reach out to you. Don’t create content to create content. Important to be responsive, that is first. Doing “Twitter and treadmill”...
