  • Greater clarity over all aspects of your operations;
  • An action plan that has clear purpose and direction; and

Marketing Plans

The community sector has become a highly competitive space. It’s not enough anymore to simply ‘be seen’; you need to show the market what makes your organisation different from everyone else and why they should choose you.

For established NGO’s (Non-Government Organisations) that have been operating for over 20 years, having a marketing plan is no lo longer a luxury, rather an essential tool to stay viable.

  • Show the market what your experience counts for;
  • Project your unique market proposition, value system and services in a more effective way;
  • Have a better understanding of the market you’re operating in – know your audience, your competition and where you fit in; and
  • Employ the marketing and advertising tactics that will give you the best return on investment.
