DO GOOD, BETTER. & YOU.

Really interesting concept. Johnson & Johnson in partnership with the likes of GuideStar, VolunteerMatch and more, offers this free digital tool for 501 (c) 3 nonprofits as well as individuals. The &you widget “takes volunteer and job opportunities, ways to donate, events & news, and puts them together in one place for the first time.” Not only should nonprofits be aware of this tool but also marketers should check out its true deliverables so that, when appropriate, they may add this to their list of tactics for clients. Super cool, super widget!

So just tuck this one away in the hopes you’ll never need to implement any of these tactics but know it’s there just in case…

CAUSE MARKETING GOOD BUSINESS, KOMEN EXEC TELLS RETAILING GROUP IN DALLAS

Brief recap of comments made by Komen Foundation Chief Marketing Officer, Katrina McGhee, in a speech at Texas A&M. Includes a couple valuable stats and expectation management insights that are good reminders for those new, and not so new, to cause marketing. My favorite – “You have to stay in it for a long time for consumers to connect to it; it’s about the third year that cause marketing programs actually hit their stride.”
