Services for Nonprofit Organizations

Are you anxious because you don't have a solid strategic or marketing plan in place (or it's just sitting on the shelf)?

Are you frustrated because you can't figure out the best way to spend your limited marketing dollars?

Are you stressed because you don't have staff or expertise to figure out the best marketing plan?

We can help reduce your anxiety, frustration and stress!

A key objective for Stepping-Stone Marketing Consulting, LLC is to help nonprofit organizations fulfill their purpose by providing action-oriented, strategic-driven marketing planning and support. We serve nonprofit organizations to help them do better what they are in mission to do. By doing so, we can impact the lives of many people in our community.

Nonprofit organizations are highly unique. Every day, you face challenges, demands and expectations that for-profit corporations will never face. With this in mind, along with the belief that the majority of nonprofit organizations serve a much higher need, Stepping-Stone is her to help you turn sound planning into effective action.

Capacity-Building and Technical Assistance
We can help nonprofit organizations with capacity-building and technical assistance in the area of strategic planning and community outreach.

Strategic Planning
To assist with strategic planning, we facilitate strategic planning workshops or other meetings with the leadership team to process components of a strategic plan, or we can write the plan for you, with your input.

Community Outreach
The last thing you want is for someone to say that your organization is a "best kept secret." Connecting with the community for referrals, clients and support is critical to the long-term success and sustainability of an organization. Through our approach to cost-effective communications, we can help nonprofit organizations to identify those most likely to connect with their cause (whether a referral agency, client, influencer, sponsor or donor), find ways to get them to experience what the organization does and provide tools to communicate to others in the community. Our goal is to help you reach those most important to you in ways that are most meaningful to them. We also strive to create materials and processes that can be used by the staff of the nonprofit organization to be self-sustaining, where possible.

Marketing Support
We are most interested in meeting your marketing and communication needs. Whether that means providing some advice, completing a project, serving as interim staff, creating marketing and communications materials, or doing something else, we encourage you to explore the possibilities. Check out the other parts of this website for detailed information about our services and contact us if you are interested or if you have a need that is not covered. Chances are that we can help you or connect you with someone else who can help.

Development Plans and Grant Strategy
Raising money to support your organization is of key importance. Having a solid development and fundraising plan provides a strong foundation for success. We can help you develop a plan that is based on sound analysis and strategy so that you will have a roadmap for reaching those who are most likely to provide support and communicating with them to increase contributions over time. Our work includes communicating with not only individual donors, but also corporations, foundations and other grant-making organizations through effective grant proposal strategies.
