Marketing and Communications

Understanding what incentives drive businesses to partner with non-profits, as well as understanding what media business owners will pay attention to can help our firm get YouthBuild Providence’s name and message in the correct places that will have a higher probability of being consumed by these higher level managers or small business owners. To get the message out correctly, we are going to leverage the use of social media and local media to push our message out to small businesses.

Community Preparatory School: Alumni Relations Plan, Arnold Robinson

Marketing and Communications

When trying to get people to understand your message, you can use the Uses and Gratifications theory which talks about how people tend to pay attention when they are entertained, informed, their opinions get reinforced and they have a sense of belonging. Our message will get people to pay attention because the Alumni already have a sense of belonging to CPS, and it informs and reinforces their opinions about caring for their Alma mater. We will get Alumni to believe this message by holding events and other activities in which they can be a part of.
