Website editors! Has your organization’s website turned into a filing cabinet? Are you juggling dozens of stakeholders with competing agendas and definitions of whom the website is for and what it’s supposed to do? How many times do you hear the phrase, “We need this on the website ASAP; can you please just post it?”

Communications directors! Does it feel like your social media channels are telling an entirely different story than your email stream? Does that story come even close to aligning with what gets published on the website and pushed out to the press?

If you answered YES! or UGH, TOO OFTEN! to the questions above, content strategy can help. Content strategy is an emerging practice that’s bringing focus, intention, and sanity to the online presences of nonprofit and forprofit organizations alike.

Participants will leave with a healthy dose of hope, plus the tools they need to lay the groundwork for powerful content strategy practices in their organizations.
