When PATH Intl. changed its name, the organization which helps 42,000 children and adults needed help itself. In addition to therapeutic riding, the centers offer a number of equine-related activities for those facing physical, mental and emotional challenges. They find strength and independence through the power of the horse. How to get it all into one website? They contacted PowerSite123.com and its sister agency, MadMarketeer.com.

These two businesses were able to create a beautiful, interactive website integrated with marketing programs which helped drive traffic to the site, provide information in a variety of languages, and register people for events. See the work at http://www.pathintl.org/

Using Charity to Improve Health

In 2006 Oprah Winfrey gave $1000 to each audience member; however, they were required to spend the money on someone other than family. This "Pay It Forward" experiment continues to reap rewards even now beginning with the donations from those audience members. Science shows donating time or money not only feels good, but can actually improve your health. Even when it's required, as in high school "service learning," donating still brings positive results for the giver such as improved grades, boosted self esteem, and what is called "the helper's high." Find a match for your talents or skills at http://www.volunteermatch.org.

“What is Social Media Marketing” is becoming a controversial subject these days. What with The Gap, Nordstrom and JC Penny closing their facebook storefronts (http://bit.ly/y8s2Oj), skeptics are all yelling “See it doesn’t work!”.  Nonprofits and for-profits alike are continually disappointed with results – although most don’t actually have measurement software in place to actually track closed loop marketing – and are desperately asking, “How do we make this work?”. In fact, one of the most frequently searched keyword phrases is “what is social media marketing?”.

We believe that many organizations have the "wrong" expectation for social media. They are trying to use it as a silver bullet. They are hoping that by putting up a Facebook page or a Twitter account that all of a sudden they'll be making new sales (for-profits) or getting new donations (nonprofits). But, folks, it's not that simple. We'll be sharing with you over the next few postings, some of the things you can and can NOT expect from social media.

So stay posted as we discuss "What is social media marketing?"
