Today's Purpose PRogram session at SCC covered all things messaging. Our #nonprofit leaders wrestle with the same challenge a lot of communicators do—how to reach all of the different audiences they have! As we covered in today's class, identifying your audiences and listing them out in order of priority is a great starting point. From there, figure out where your audience lives, works, and plays and tailor your core messaging to them. What you plan and prepare for gets done. Happy Thursday from our team to yours! #communications #publicrelations #communityoutreach #nonprofits
