The Intersection of Marketing & Development
Annual giving season is nearly upon us and nonprofits country-wide are scrambling to craft their best appeal. Why do we all scramble at the same time? How can we plan effectively? How can we stand out in the crowd? This session will explore the differences and similarities between the marketing and development functions and ways to turn a patron into a donor, and also provide space for brainstorming and feedback on your specific end-of-year giving plans.
