2009 Nonprofit PR & Marketing Forum, Sarasota, FL
Sponsored by the Community Foundation of Sarasota County and the Florida Public Relations Association
Two 2-hour keynote presentations on low-cost, real-world nonprofit marketing and nonprofit storytelling
“When our Community Foundation invites a speaker to address our nonprofit community, we’re always looking for that very rare mix of inspiration, extremely practical information that can be used immediately, and knowledge that moves us to higher levels of understanding and effectiveness with the work we’re so passionate about. Kivi accomplished all of this. Her sessions were phenomenal, and our participants are asking for more.” ~ Susie Bowie, Community Foundation of Sarasota County
2009 Meals on Wheels Association of America Annual Conference & Expo, San Diego, CA
One 3-hour workshop, “Your Nonprofit Marketing Plan: A Roadmap to Building Support for Your Organization,” and one 90-minute workshop, “Telling Your Story to the Media and Your Supporters”
“Thank you so much for being part of the faculty at the 2009 MOWAA Annual Conference in San Diego. The courses you presented for our Communication’s Certificate Program were extremely well received. You are a very engaging educator who manages to keep people involved in the sessions, even the long 3-hour one, from the moment you start speaking.
Our attendees have told us how much they learned from your courses and how helpful the handouts were for future reference. In fact, we are using your scenarios from the Storytelling session as a guideline for a video we are developing.”
~ Magda Hageman-Apol, Assistant Vice President and Director of the National Center for Nutrition Leadership, Meals On Wheels Association of America
