Your brand is a valuable asset that can drive growth for the future. How strong is your brand? How can you position your organization to engage a wider audience of supporters in your mission? Join us to evaluate the strength of your brand and learn how to apply expert techniques to build your brand on any size budget. We’ll discuss how to create your brand positioning, how to evaluate your name and logo, and how to write an elevator pitch that generates interest in your organization.
We’ll discuss tools you can use to encourage everyone in your organization to champion and steward the brand, how to set guardrails to protect your brand, and how to measure your brand over time. We will review case study examples and discuss practical tools. Please bring your brand and marketing challenge to share as we’ll take the opportunity to workshop a few challenges during the session.
