For my Chicago peeps. Last year I did a workshop on Word of Mouth Marketing at the Creative Chicago Expo.    The entire expo is free, so if you are in Chicago you should come out.    It was fun.    People got something from it.    So I was asked back. This year, the topic is Marketing For the Cash Strapped And The Time Poor.

I’ll be speaking at the 2016 Nonprofit Storytelling Conference in Chicago in November (early bird registration ends June 30!). I hope you’ll join us in Chicago! One of the topics I will cover is what you actually do with the great stories you’ve written. How do you build them into your editorial calendar so you get the most out of them? I recorded a short preview of the talk (about 4 minutes) and it’s now available on the conference website.

Here's an utterly excellent post from a new favorite, The Bamboo Project blog by Michele Martin. Michele shows how small nonprofits can use the web -- for an investment of $60 or less -- to communicate with clients, donors, advocates, volunteers, and other supporters.
