Nonprofit Communications Trends 2014 was recently published by the Web site www.nonprofitmarketingguide.com, the fourth year that the survey has been administered. A total of 2,135 nonprofits responded to the latest survey, 88 percent of them in the U.S.
Forty-two percent of the charities cited lack of time to produce quality content as their number one challenge with communications. Lack of budget was second at 37 percent, and in third place at 31 percent was lack of a clear strategy - which Pentera's marketing experts help clients develop.
The nonprofit leaders said that writing e-mail newsletter articles consumes more of their time than any other form of communication. Print newsletters and eNewsletters are part of Pentera's customized marketing campaigns that also include print and ePostcards and planned giving Web sites.
According to the survey, the six most important communications tools for nonprofits (out of 13 measured) are listed below. The percentage represents the nonprofits who said that the tool was very important or somewhat important.
