Marketing Your Nonprofit Organization
Competitive and non-competitive walks are a great way to gather large amounts of people to raise awareness of your cause and raise funds. Your most enthusiastic supporters are also happy to go out and gather funds from family, friends and co-workers (in essence, they do the leg work and calling for you). And those who can't participate are usually willing to donate money toward your cause.
TIP: One way to thank walkers and walk volunteers is with water bottles. They'll keep walkers hydrated and get used long after the walk is over, meaning your cause gets promoted on a frequent basis. Another thank you is pedometers. Now walkers can track their progress throughout the day.
TIP: USB drives are especially useful for transporting data from one location to the next. They're really helpful for IT personnel who travel to different locations or for field sales professionals when presenting to a client. If needed, the drive can be left behind, so your presentation (and your logo) stay put!
For a really striking presentation (and leave-behind item), consider a pen/flash drive combo.
Weave a safety message into your promotions
Being in such close contact with others at work can lead to the rapid spread of colds and the flu. To protect your staff (especially if they share desks) give them telephone pads with antimicrobial protection.
Each phone pad is made with AgION(TM) antimicrobial protection that inhibits the growth of bacteria, fungi and other germs. It's also a great product to have at home, so the whole family doesn't get sick.
TIP: Washing your hands is crucial for preventing the spread of germs. You should wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and water aren't available, use an alcohol-based hand gel (with at least 60% alcohol). source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.cx
On a Shoestring Budget?
You can still afford to market your business
Don't forget the mugs! These days mugs are being updated with new styles, sizes (15 oz., 16 oz., 17 oz. versus the traditional 11 oz.) and colors.
Contrasting colors -- like the ones you can see here, can draw more attention to your logo.
TIP: To add some "pop" to your mug, tuck mints, small cookies or miniature candy bars inside. Or for the "desk set" fill it with pens, paper clips and sticky notes.
With approximately 30.3 million golfers out there (according to the National Golf Federation), chances are you know someone who plays: your business partner, clients, donors to your charitable organization and so on. To make a lasting impression with them - one that could provide you with more moola
TIP: The imprint area of golf balls isn't very large, usually within a 7/8-inch to 1-inch diameter. So choose what you want imprinted on them carefully.
