Delivering Messages That Attract


Listen Later

Key Takeaways:

  • Grow your pipeline impact through consistent, value-driven engagement across channels. Follow a social media strategy that moves audiences from awareness to reliable outreach, relationship building, and action.
  • Implement a content hourglass system: Create one core story weekly and derive consistent messaging from it for all platforms. Create targeted email campaigns for different audience segments with one clear story/message instead of long, multi-update emails.
  • Plan content in a three-week cycle: client story, donor feature, recap, and rerun/recycle content occasionally. Develop one core story weekly, repurpose it into various formats, host it on the website, and distribute it through channels to drive traffic back to the website.
  • Tell one awesome story weekly using video, blog posts, and social posts; repurpose major events content for the website, email, and social; segment email lists for targeted communication; move audiences from awareness to action through a consistent content pipeline.

 

“Email is reliable reach - it's the most reliable, most consistent method of getting your message out.”

 

“Ask yourself this question: Is the story I'm telling something that I want people to know or something people want to actually know?”

 

“Tell one awesome story a week. You can tell an entertaining story or an educator story. You have expertise that you can share with people.”
