Rethinking Online Marketing: Using Inbound Marketing to Grow Your FundraisingJono Smith
A fundamental decision nonprofit marketers must make when developing a marketing communications strategy is whether to push, pull or both. A push strategy relies on outbound marketing and means you are going to interrupt people and buy (advertising), beg (media and public relations) or bug (email marketing, direct mail, telemarketing) them for attention. A pull strategy relies on inbound marketing and means you are going to try and earn people's attention by developing great content and amplifying that content with social marketing and making it easy to find out about your cause through search engine optimization.

3. Why aren’t you living your dream already?
Every so often I run into a business that screams “GROWTH POTENTIAL!”, but when
the owners reveal that the business has been around for 20 years I find myself asking,
“Why aren’t they living the lifestyles of their dreams already?” Of course, there can be
many reasons why a company might not grow to realize its potential, but there are two
reasons that stand out in my mind as fixable:
• Conflicting priorities
• Conflicting metrics
Simply put, many underachieving businesses suffer from conflicting priorities and
conflicting metrics, and those conflicts decrease the performance of the business. We
will examine the “diseases” of the conflicting priorities and conflicting metrics through
the life of “John, the business owner.”
3
4. The disease of conflicting priorities
• John & Co. has come a long way from its humble origins as a one one-man business 20 years
ago. It has become an organization of 30 employees and the organization has its own needs
and places growing demands on John’s time and attention. On a personal level, John has
reached the point where he desires more personal time; a chance to enjoy the lifestyle that he
has worked so hard towards achieving. While getting the business to this point has taken 20
years of his life, it still is not where he wanted it to be and clearly he has more thinking and
planning to do.
• In search of a solution, John sits down with a business advisor and tells a story filled with
contradictions and conflicts that John can only sense but the advisor can clearly see.
• “I am 100% committed to taking this business to the next level. I am willing to do what it
takes,” he tells his advisor. “I need to spend more time with my family. My children are grown
and I missed so much of their childhood. My wife wants more of my time and we always
planned to travel once the children moved out. I am eager to see all that happen,” he adds.
4
5. Conflicting Priorities Illustrated
In 2008 John and his company suffered from the conflicts listed in the Priority Table below.
E.g. John’s current The needs of The needs of Action Step
needs John’s people John’s business
Quarter1 More vacation More face
face-time Overseas ?
with you partnerships
Quarter2 More time with More training Better ?
family infrastructure
Quarter3 More time for Better tools Investment in skill ?
skiing building
Quarter4 Time to train for Guidance & hand
hand- Investment in ?
the marathon holding external help
Use the priority table as a template to guide your decision making and make decisions that remove conflicts
In each case John made a choice that reinforced the conflicts instead of removing them, and as a
result his company continues to exist in a state of unrealized potential. Many of you reading this article
will be able to relate to John and his company. If your company is faced with similar conflicts and you
would like to grow your business while living your dream, ask yourself and your core team this
question, “What is the next action step that we can take that will remove our conflicts?”
5
6. The disease of conflicting metrics
In a typical organization there are four different types of metrics at play:
• Personal metrics (hidden) - what the business owner uses as a measure of her own success
• Stated metrics - what the business owner tell her people they are being measured upon
tells
• Business metrics - measures that reflect the ability of the business to meet its customers’
needs and positively impact profit
• Implied metrics (hidden) - what the business owner or leader unconsciously conveys to her
employees through words or actions

“smoothly” as quickly as
possible
Web part of Upscale design of Number of hits on Conversion from Customers being
John’s Business the website website hits into “impressed” with
customers the website
design
In John & Co.’s business these four types of metrics listed in the Metrics Table are not aligned.
If John wants his profit to grow, then he must align his metrics first behind the business
metrics.

8. Conflicting Metrics Illustrated
• John derives a sense of pride and accomplishment (personal metrics) from investing in
furniture and fixtures that give an upscale look to his store.
• He has instructed his retail manager to ensure the retail area runs “smoothly.”
• On the retail floor the emphasis is on processing customers through the store as quickly as
possible rather than ensuring each customer’s needs are met before he or she leaves the
store.
• Yet, every week John looks at his profit from the retail area and is disappointed to see that it is
not growing.
9. Does your business suffer from the
disease of conflicting metrics?
If your business suffers from the misalignment of these four metrics, the
“pressing questions” that you should ask yourself are,
•“What are the key metrics that drive the growth of my business?” and
“What
•“What metrics should I use to measure my personal success?”
“What

about here, then your success dashboard might look like this.
