Are you struggling to get noticed by funders and strategic partners — even though your nonprofit is doing critical, impactful work?

In this episode, I'll walk you through the essential keys to making your nonprofit brand unforgettable. Drawing on insights from more than 17 years in communications and 8+ years advising nonprofit leaders, I share the most common branding challenges nonprofits face today — and the exact steps you can take to rise above the noise.

You’ll learn how to shift your mindset from “surviving” to “thriving” and build a brand that funders remember, partners rally behind, and your team is proud of.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why caution-mode branding holds nonprofits back — and what to do instead

  • The top five branding pitfalls that make nonprofits invisible

  • How to reframe your narrative to emphasize transformation, not just activity

  • Why audience clarity is the new brand superpower

  • Five “Invisible No More” branding keys you can implement today

Plus, listen in as I reveal the action steps you can take right now to start moving the needle on visibility, funding, and influence.

Whether you're leading communications, fundraising, or executive strategy — this episode will give you the clarity and momentum to lead with confidence.
