New dates set for CCSNYS workshops

Nonprofit Marketing and Messaging
Presented by Valerie Venezia, VP of Membership & Marketing and Cindy L. Wagner, Capacity Building Advisor for CCSNYS


Getting our story out is becoming increasingly more important for nonprofits. It’s not enough for people to know you “do good work.” Creating our message and getting the word out can be daunting and seem expensive. Never fear -our staff will give you an overview of what every nonprofit can do on a low (or non-existent) budget to craft their message and market their “story”. This workshop will focus on creating a strong message that anyone on staff (or board) can remember and communicate. We will also explore some traditional marketing/storytelling mediums. Our afternoon session will focus on the use of the internet in getting your message heard.
