Creativity Can Make Or Break Your Cause Campaign
Your cause marketing strategy should include a visual identity that breaks through the clutter. The most memorable cause partnerships have a unique look that sets them apart and forges an emotional connection.
Capturing B2B Dollars to Extend Your Cause Campaign Reach
Incorporating supplier activations into cause promotions creates a multiplier effect that can significantly boost fundraising. This can be done via corporate partner’s vendors and or/business partners.
Creating a Social Impact Strategy
Successful social impact strategies go beyond awareness and are designed to boost an organization’s overall mission – not just its brand identity. They serve as a solid framework and include clear business objectives and measurable outcomes. These strategies should be woven into the very fabric of a company and engage all stakeholders – top executives, employees, customers and supply chain partners.
