Hi, I’m Ricardo Ibarra, founder of Market Your Mission and longtime nonprofit board member. I teach nonprofits how to market their mission through captivating communications and beautiful design so that they can share their story, grow their donor base, and make a greater impact on the world.

Do you struggle to get more people to care about your mission?

Is it a challenge for your nonprofit to attract and retain donors?

Do you have trouble finding time to update your website, blog, or social media?

Are you feeling overwhelmed by all the communications tasks you know you should be doing?

If so, you’re not alone. I’ve seen many of my nonprofit clients struggle with the same challenges. And to be honest, running a small business is a lot like running a nonprofit and I’ve faced many of those same problems.

When I started out in the marketing space, I had a big heart full of passion for serving my clients, but I really didn’t know where to start. The online marketing landscape was exploding with so many options, I couldn’t tell up from down.

And so I struggled. I tried to do everything under the sun and serve every client who needed design or marketing help. I remember having so much fun helping one client relaunch their website yet later that day I had to ask my parents for money to help me pay rent.

I thought to myself, “Why can’t I have the same results that my clients are enjoying?”

It took another few years of the boom-and-bust cycle of small business and a TON of learning and growing to help me figure out what works. I’ve learned that marketing is most effective when it’s combined with the human element through story. I’ve learned that you don’t need to post on every single social network under the sun in order to gain the attention of your ideal audience member. And I’ve learned countless other strategies, tactics, and ideas to help make marketing and communications simple, fun, and effective.

It’s been my great honor to share my knowledge with my nonprofit clients to help them amplify their impact. For Alfie’s Fund, a marketing campaign that integrated a promotional video, Facebook ads, email, and print materials enabled the foundation to fill their inaugural scholarship cohort with some of the brightest, most remarkable students from diverse backgrounds. They’ve repeated that campaign three times now with the same stellar results.

In 2018, FIUTS re-launched their website with a gorgeous, mobile-friendly design. The website presents a professional yet approachable image to potential donors, volunteers, and sponsors. It’s received rave reviews and an increase in visitor traffic thanks to how easy to use it is.

That’s why I’m so excited to introduce my new training program, Market Your Mission Monthly. It’s a monthly subscription program where I go live on video every month to teach you the latest strategies and tactics on marketing, communications, and design.

I created Market Your Mission Monthly for nonprofit leaders like you because I know that you’re pressed for time and need a way to learn and improve your marketing skills. Many nonprofits don’t have much money in their budget for marketing and communications. This monthly subscription program fits your busy schedule, is easy on the budget, and includes topical training that will help you amplify your impact.

Here’s how it works. Every month I go live on video to present on a topic ranging from annual reports to Instagram. Accompanying each monthly broadcast is a worksheet or toolkit to help you take what I teach further in your day-to-day operations. And at the end of each video is a Q&A session where I answer your questions related to that topic. You’ll definitely want to tune in live during the broadcast for all the freebies I hand out! But if you can’t make it, the video will be archived in your member’s area for you to watch on demand.

I’ve already planned out the topics for my first three broadcasts:

February: Captivate your audience with story

March: Grow your donor base with Instagram

April: Email marketing made easy

If you started the year unsure of how to get more donors or reach more people, Market Your Mission Monthly is for you! Instead of wondering, “What do I post?” or “How do I get people to read my emails?” you’ll be able to confidently promote and market your nonprofit’s mission. Having the tools, strategies, and skills you need for your day-to-day operations will relieve a lot of stress and uncertainty so that you can focus on building more relationships and serving your cause.

All too many nonprofits put marketing communications at the bottom of their task list because it’s overwhelming, they’re not sure where to start, or they don’t think they have the budget for it. Our monthly marketing training together will empower you to choose the right strategies for your nonprofit and implement them quickly without the headaches you’ve had in the past! I am so excited for you to experience the peace of mind and the ease that comes from having a strategy and seeing it deliver results.

This is different from any marketing training you’ve received before. And unlike so many free resources that barely skim the surface of a topic, my training is a deep dive into the specific tactics and frameworks that you need. At the end of each training session, you’ll have a list of action items and next steps to keep your nonprofit marketing moving forward. Plus, when you attend the live broadcast, you can get your questions answered and win fun swag and freebies! I give away workbooks, cheat sheets, online courses, coaching sessions, and gifts to the people who attend live and get their questions answered during the training session.

In my experience, there’s something magical about a live training experience where you and your fellow nonprofit leaders can network, help each other, and learn together. The energy of a live training helps to boost motivation and inspire action.

And instead of an expensive one-time class fee, you get the latest nonprofit marketing training every single month for a fantastic price.

You see, it would take you hours and hours to search the web for the actionable strategies and tactics that I share during our monthly live trainings. I can say that with confidence because I’ve spent the past ten years training and learning everything I could about marketing and design. You benefit from my experience at a fraction of the time it took to learn these concepts. I’ve put in the time so you don’t have to.

What I love about the online training model is that it’s extremely cost-effective for many nonprofits. I usually charge between $250–500 an hour for consulting with my corporate clients. For example, a website relaunch starts at $10,000. And while this may not be an issue for some, I know that many nonprofits need to keep their overhead low and devote their funds toward programming. When you join Market Your Mission Monthly, you get an hour of teaching and training every month on the latest strategies and tactics to help you attract more donors and build a community around your work all for $49 per month!
