Tidbits from the August Luncheon

If you couldn’t make it to our August luncheon, we hope to see you at the next one on September 15. Here’s what you missed.

More than 50 professionals attended
Two job opportunities were announced during introductions
Luncheon attendees were offered a special one-day only discount rate for Get Smart
Kerri Qunell, Melanie Chasteen and Kelli Kelley offered thoughts and experiences about working in non-profit communications, including:
- Start with your business plan, before developing a marketing plan – align communications to the overall goals of the organization.
- Media credibility can be built without high cost. Hire an agency that understands non-profits, engage your volunteer base as ambassadors and ask for help from friends in your network.
- For non-profit job seekers: know about the organization you’re interviewing with; care about the brand; and find out who is interviewing you.
From L to R: Kelli Kelley, Kerri Qunell, Melanie Chasteen
