Nonprofit Publicity 101: Great PR Ideas that Get Attention

Why is no one noticing all the great work your nonprofit is doing?

If you are having a hard time getting the attention your good cause deserves from the news media, community residents, your professional community, or the people you think should be supporting your cause, it’s time to explore some proven techniques for getting good, free publicity.

Publicity is about much more than getting your name in the paper or mentioned by a blogger (although both can be incredibly valuable to nonprofits.) It’s also about getting people talking about your group and what you do, and getting them to spread the word for you. This kind of word-of-mouth marketing is priceless, because people trust what their friends and family tell them much more than they trust advertising or the media.
