Understand the buyer
Donors, volunteers, CSR teams and beneficiaries who want transparency and impact evidence. Map the questions they ask at each stage, from first research to final decision.
Key challenges
Small budgets. Donor trust. Explaining impact simply. Planning around these avoids wasted spend.
Channels to prioritise
Start with google ad grants (for eligible organisations), social storytelling, email updates and media coverage. Storytelling content and Ad Grants for eligible organisations.
Content that works
Useful formats include impact stories, transparent fund-use reports, volunteer stories and campaign updates. Keep content accurate, specific and easy to read on mobile.
Compliance
Follow FCRA rules for foreign contributions, show 80G/12A status accurately and obtain consent for beneficiary stories and images.
Measure what matters
Track donations and donors, volunteer sign-ups, email engagement and csr partnerships. Review monthly and shift budget towards what produces real customers.
