Unlike your mission or vision, strategies can change to leverage the great news and results you generate. Strategic plans need to be updated and groomed. The appropriate stakeholders (not just your best supporters) should provide input. Draft strategic results should be vetted with a larger group. At Social Solutions Group, we consult with you to create a current, streamlined strategy that keeps your inspired works effective and agile. Most importantly, stategic planning works WITH communications and fund-raising for best results.
How do you tell the world and your own community about what you are doing? How to keep your community galvanized and involved? A range of external public relations and inspiring internal communications is necessary. Sure, social media creates many more ways to reach audiences. It also creates noise. The classic values apply -- tell a great story, always have a new story to tell, get to the point. We help you create outstanding communications plans that fearlessly and creatively get the word out about your organization.
Supporting your cause is linked to strategy and communications from the outset. Everything you do is about fundraising, making your organization viable and able to do more to help others. Inspired by Lynne Twist's "Soul of Money," we believe that there are countless opportunities to ask, and your cause is an opportunity to make someone else feel good about giving. Giving others the chance to help is part of your strategy, part of your communications. We work with you to chart new ways to raise funds and awareness about your cause.
