Selecting the right online marketing tools is only accomplished when you know where your audience can be found online. In other words, creating a Facebook page for your organization does you little good if your target market spends little time on Facebook. Are there benefits to having a Facebook page for your organization? Yes, but it may not be your first priority if you have limited resources and time. The only way to determine the priorities of your action plan is to truly understand the needs of your audience. It’s critical to take a good, close look at your audience members and understand where and how they interact online, along with what they’re looking for. Your audience wants to know that you understand them and the the services and programs you’re providing are what they’re looking for. In order to gain this insight, take the time to research where your visitors are coming from, where you’re losing potential visitors and how long it takes for your audience members to identify with the organization and community.

In Yiddish, there is a term for this: Hamish. It’s an adjective that means cozy and warm. Make your website hamish. When visitors are relaxed, they’re more open to hear what you have to say.

So, you’re in charge of marketing for your non-profit organization. This means you’re the person everyone’s looking at when asking about the newsletter, advertisements, the awesome facebook group and maybe the most important thing… the website.
