"The Do-it-Yourself Guide for small nonprofits and foundations."

The 150-page Communications Handbook is for you if:

  • You work for a small (even VERY small) to mid-sized nonprofit organization or foundation

  • You don't have a full-time PR or marketing person on staff

  • You are an executive director seeking to boost the marketing capacity of your organization

  • You have no budget or only a small budget but still have to do more PR and marketing/communications to raise awareness, raise funds, attract members, or promote your programs.

  • You'd like the ability to do many communications tasks in-house, without depending on consultants,
    agencies, or other vendors.

The Handbook would be valuable to an experienced PR pro, but it is written for people who have no communications experience whatsoever! In many smaller organizations, the executive director, the fundraiser or a staffer handles communications as an added duty, in addition to all their dozens of other responsibilities. If this sounds like you, you'll love The Communications Handbook.

"You’ll be surprised how easy it is to do any or all of these things yourself!"

  • Handle virtually all of your communications needs, right from your own desktop, yourself

  • Decide whether an e-newsletter makes sense for you, and, if so, how to make the most of it

  • Keep your website up to date at all times with no webmaster

  • Conduct your own market polls and focus groups at no cost

  • Enhance your website with videos

  • Get news about your organization published or broadcast in your local media

  • Create marketing and branding plans for your organization overall, or for specific programs

  • Understand what "branding" really means for a small nonprofit

  • Make every e-mail you send enhance your outreach efforts

  • Learn why a blog is the best first step you can take in the world of Social Media

  • Examine Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other Social Media and implement a plan for your nonprofit

  • Learn Storytelling Shortcuts that can help ANY nonprofit staffer improve your organization's message.

The 150-page Handbook has 10 Chapters, each of which is written as a standalone, complete tutorial on the topic. Chapters provide you with the strategic information you need to make decisions (should we create a Facebook group, or is that a waste of time for us?) as well as detailed, step-by-step tutorials on how to get things done -- how to create a blog; how to use YouTube to add videos to your site; how to conduct polls and focus groups. Each chapter guides the do-it-yourself nonprofit staffer step by step down the path of achieving your goal.

 

One of the most popular features of the Handbook are the templates you'll find, including the 15-Minute

Branding Plan, the 1 page Nonprofit Organization Marketing Plan, the Social Media Planning Template, and

other fill-in-the-blank tools that make your job easy.

About the Author

The Communications Handbook is published by Steve Cebalt, “The Trainer for Do-it-Yourself Nonprofit Communicators.” The Handbook is based on the workshops and webinars that Steve delivers to mostly smaller nonprofits and foundations. Why his emphasis on the smaller organizations? Because they are the ones who need the help! Cebalt is the owner of Highview LLC, a training and consulting company located in the heart of the Midwest, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He works every day with clients-executive directors, staff members – who must handle communications for their organization with no full-time marketing support, often little or no budget. As a result, he’s become an expert at helping nonprofits do more with less; and he creates his training materials – including the Communications Handbook – for people who have little or no background in PR or marketing.
