I have some exciting news to share about tomorrow's Learning Club on personal branding and social impact career growth. To bolster our expertise on the subject - especially on the social impact career growth side - we've invited a special guest to join us.
Lisa Anastasi is Chief Development & Marketing Officer at the USO. She recently delivered a well received presentation for AFP Washington DC Metro Chapter titled Who's the Next Boss. It's all about how to get that next promotion. And why - YES! - you should be thinking about that promotion during a global pandemic!
Megan and I are really excited to have Lisa join as a knowledge leader during the Learning Club. While Lisa won't be delivering her presentation during the meeting - there’s an executive summary above👆-she'll be there to offer insights and to answer your questions on growing your career.
To join us at the Learning Club, which is FREE and open to everyone, tomorrow, October 1st at 4pm EDT...

🤑 Marketing Your Cause
1. You should copy Joe Biden's influencer strategy. The campaign identifies influencers who speak to small but targeted audiences.
Biden "sits at home, often in front of a plant-filled backdrop and a window, while the influencer asks him open-ended questions that allow Biden to talk off the cuff about any given topic."
Why couldn't you do this with your ED?
2. The 3 rules of coronavirus communication [VIDEO] that should guide your nonprofit communications for the rest of the year (and most of 2021).
3. So true! Why nonprofit content marketing should help, not sell.
