Practical Tips from Wells Fargo
• Be conscious of Cause Alignment
• Select a cause that not only reflects the values of your organization
but can also create a link with your customers or clients.
• Ensure marketing and media strategies can be customized to
your organization’s needs.
• A cookie-cutter approach may not always be of benefit.
• Cause marketing is a commitment!
• Be engaged year-round with your community and local nonprofits. Lack
of engagement can be perceived as being insincere and create
reputational issues
