Optimising your brand for fundraising
Optimising your brand for fundraising has never felt more important – but where to start and how to do this with limited resources (both people and time)? Join us at the next Brand Breakfast event where you’ll hear how charity brands are optimising for fundraising. What’s working well for them and what hasn’t worked so well? We’ll also have a special ‘hot potatoes’ peer-to-peer discussion session to address your most pressing brand questions.

Deep dive presentation: Prostate Cancer UK’s Cycle the Month Cycle the Month is Prostate Cancer UK’s virtual cycling fundraising challenge which took place in August this year. Phil and Alice will be talking through the communications and creative approach they optimised for their bold brand to create audience and product-led design assets. These assets were used across a range of digital channels to reach our key audiences. The team worked to very tight deadlines and limited marketing budget to achieve their project objectives and successfully achieved eight times their targeted fundraising total.

Optimise the brand for fundraising, or transform fundraising for brand? Parkinson’s UK refreshed the brand in 2019, bringing their appearance and language more in line with who they really are. But how have they maximised the opportunity to optimise the brand for income generation? In this short session, you’ll get a glimpse of their most recent learnings, some of the pain points and obstacles they’ve had to overcome, and how they’re putting learnings into practice. You’ll come away relieved you’re not alone, with some ideas for healthy challenge and collaborative brand-led fundraising, and excited to see what’s coming next. Dee Russell | |

About the Brand Breakfast
CharityComms’ Brand Breakfast is a group for professionals working in brand to come together to discuss issues of mutual interest and share examples of good practice.
The format of the meetings is usually two or three presentations on a specific topic, followed by small group discussions, providing a combination of best practice and peer-to-peer sharing.
These events are a great opportunity to meet your peers, compare notes on workplace practices and share successes, ideas, challenges and inspiration. The group is designed to encourage networking and peer to peer support, sharing issues in a ‘safe’ environment.
If you’d like to be one of the first to hear about these events, please email events@charitycomms.org.uk to be added to the mailing list.
