Mission Marketing Institute | Spring 2025

One of the biggest challenges that nonprofit organizations identify is increasing public awareness. Nonprofit marketing is a multi-faceted effort that is constantly changing as attention spans shorten and new apps roll out. Communicating your organization’s story requires both sides of the brain, all hours in the day, and can often fall to one person.

The Mission Marketing Institute is a 3-session, hands-on learning opportunity that builds basic marketing skills, introduces advanced techniques, and allows marketing staff to focus time on communication strategy.

Local topic experts from area nonprofits and businesses will guide each session. Each session includes instruction combined with time to work on and create your own organization’s actual materials. Participants will also benefit from connecting with and learning from a peer community of nonprofit marketing professionals.

Topics Include:

Communication Strategy
Website Design & SEO
Data Analytics
Social Media & Video Strategy
Email Marketing
Media Relations
Successful Case Studies
