Episode 5: Global Peace Through Music - Saam Golgoon from World Music Development

10/27/20 • 60 min

Relish THIS: The Nonprofit Marketing Podcast

Saam and his team are on a mission to promote global peace through music.
Though their revenues are down this year, they have managed to keep things rolling through pivots to virtual events and getting a bit creative with outreach and fundraising efforts.
We talked through ways to get kids involved with music and tools that can be used to reach audiences at scale, pay-what-you-can options to allow people to assign the value they received for an event or activity, and even how to leverage gaming platforms to host live events.
It was a great conversation and I hope you enjoy the show.

Episode 4: Collaboration and Building Connections - Scott Segerstrom from CYCA

Yay! A new episode with Scott Segerstrom from the Colorado Youth Corps Association.
Scott and I chatted about his journey to the CYCA and all the great work they are doing to help bridge the gap between Land Managers and Youth Corps here in the state.
Scott faces some interesting challenges coordinating messaging and communications between the Corps (and their roughly 1800 youth and veteran workers) and Land Managers who are looking to get trail work, fire mitigation, and other environmental projects accomplished.
Enjoy the show!

Episode 6: Expanding the Mission - Dan Smink from C1-Partners

Super fun conversation this week with my guest, Dan Smink from C1-Partners.
Dan is a kickass digital marketer who has a ton of experience both working on nonprofit Boards as well as providing assistance to Colorado nonprofits with their digital marketing activities.
We talked about ways nonprofits can diversify their revenue streams, rethinking how we talk about fiscal success in the nonprofit space, and what one should consider a healthy marketing budget when in a growth mindset.
One really great part of our conversation centered around how to look at ways to escalate engagements with your audience to transition volunteers to donors, then on to corporate donors (which is where BIG donations start to happen).
I hope you enjoy this episode. I had a ton of fun recording it!
