Is marketing a nonprofit different from any other business? According to Karen Ramchuk—The Executive Director of the Women in Need Society (WINS)—it is different. It isn’t just about marketing the best price and the best product. It’s also about marketing that WINS thrift stores support women and children living in poverty. They aren’t using the enterprise to pay their employees. All of the proceeds go into community programs. It’s about building awareness and connecting with an audience. She shares the ins and outs of marketing a nonprofit in this episode of Content Callout.
