Video: Why Marketing Matters

The internet has changed everything about how you run your pregnancy center. You know that every day, women in your community open Google on their phones to search for solutions to their unplanned pregnancies.

Are they finding you first?

Without intentional, strategic effort on your part, their searches will be met by abortion clinics seeking to profit from women’s perceived crises.

Marketing your services and reaching HER can mean the difference between life and death for her baby … especially in an age where demand for the abortion pill and easy access to medication abortion has grown substantially.

Sometimes communicating with your board about how important marketing is can be a challenge. It is their responsibility to oversee and care about the resources of your center and steward them well. They may often see the costs of the investment and don’t understand the necessity of marketing online to women facing unplanned pregnancies.

This week’s FREE video will help you communicate the need for strategic marketing. Please feel free to share this with your board and key supporters to help them understand how essential marketing is to reach women in this digital age.

Important Updates You Should Know About the Abortion Pill

You have likely been faced with the realities of the growing popularity of the abortion pill. It has been marketed to  women as a private, quick, easy fix to their situation – without consequence or sometimes even the need to share with anyone they are pregnant. Two pills and they can move on with their lives. Are you getting lots of calls with questions about it?

FDA regulations stipulate a woman must see a doctor before having the abortion pill prescribed. This is because the abortion pill must be taken within the first 10 weeks of pregnancy, and many women don’t know exactly how far along they are without a doctor’s appointment and ultrasound. In addition, we know this procedure can also have devastating emotional and physical repercussions for women. They deserve to both be informed and hear these warnings so they know the truth about the pill.

As you know, the target demographic you want to reach doesn’t change – but their habits and how they receive information has changed drastically over the decades.

Gen Z is your target audience. This generation was born between 1996 and 2014. They have never known life without the internet or smart phones and they are used to consuming lots of information instantly and constantly. Without a doubt, in order to get in front of this demographic, you need to have a digital presence.

In this download, we take a deep dive into what it means to be a member of Gen Z. We questioned some teens and young adults who are part of Gen Z and hope their answers are enlightening to you as you plan your marketing strategies to reach them more effectively!

Fundraising Forecast for 2020

A newly released study by Fidelity Charitable indicates that 80% of major donors plan to give the same or more than they did last year, even in the face of this crisis. Further, the study indicated that most donors do not plan to shift their giving to different organizations in light of the pandemic; they will stay the course by continuing to support their favorite nonprofits and missions they are passionate about. As an added bonus, the recently passed CARES Act also expands tax deductions for charitable giving this year, providing many major donors with a powerful incentive to give more.

What does this mean for you? You need to simply ask.

Pivoting After COVID-19 for Increased Donor Engagement

I’m sure you are looking forward to getting back to normal. All of us are wondering what “normal” will look like. We long for the days before the pandemic, social distancing, and the challenge of finding toilet paper, sanitizer, and the masks you needed to meet with your clients.

At Choose Life Marketing, we have seen positives come out of this huge challenge for centers across the country.

COVID-19’s Lasting Mark: How Will Your Center Adapt?

Let’s be honest. For most pregnancy centers we talk to, this pandemic has been a long road. Adapting how you serve people, worrying about finances and canceled events, keeping up with new technology to communicate with both staff and clients, wondering how long you will have to do all of this… it’s a lot.

While we all desire to return to normalcy, part of moving forward will be learning to adapt to a “new normal.” Women’s ultimate need is the same, but how they pursue solutions to that need has shifted. They are now very comfortable being reached, served and communicated to virtually. How will you respond?

In this guide, we talk about some key ways your pregnancy center can adapt to long-lasting changes from COVID-19 to continue reaching and serving abortion-minded women.

What is the Google Knowledge Vault?

For the past several years, Google has been working on building a knowledge vault to store knowledge about … everything. Albert Einstein. How airplanes work. Ingredients for dairy free ice cream. Google’s goal is to create a ‘machine system’ that has the whole of human knowledge stored in one place. This will make Google search results smarter and more accurate to what people are searching for online, helping them find the information they need more efficiently.

As of 2014, the Knowledge Vault had pulled in 1.6 billion facts. Of those, 271 million were rated as “confident facts,” meaning a more than 90 percent chance of being true. It predicts this by cross-referencing new facts with what it already knows.

As you read through this, you may have concerns about privacy or how a company like Google can decide truths within the knowledge they compile. The big takeaway today is that the Google Knowledge Vault can impact your pregnancy center in three primary ways. First, it will impact your Google rankings which determines if women will see your site or not. Second, it will impact a person’s experience while on your site. And finally, it will impact whether or not someone seeking information about your services can trust the information on your site.

At the end of the day, reaching your clients with life-saving support and resources is your number one goal. In this free guide, we will help you understand how Google views information so you can maintain visibility as you keep your website ranked high in Google’s search results.

Fundraising in the Face of an Uncertain Tomorrow

Did you know that for the past 45 years, charitable giving increased every year except for three (1977 – the height of the energy crisis and 2008/2009 – the great recession)? Those three years showed a decline in charitable gifts. However, during the 2008/2009 recession, the decrease was in giving that was not relationship based. Those who are most connected to nonprofits have historically stayed connected in hard times. Both your major gift development and faithful monthly givers will carry you through even in the hardest of economic downturns because of your strong relationship with them. Realistically, due to job loss and other factors, you have to expect some donors to take a break from giving. However, trends show that others will step up to help in a big way.

Platforms for Reaching Generation Z

Each generation has its own defining attributes, styles of communication, and lifestyle preferences. As technology has advanced, younger generations have become more savvy and more technologically fluent. While Millennials grew up with emerging technology, Generation Z is unique in that it has never known a time without iPhones, social media, and instant connection via the internet. For years, your primary client audience has been Millennials. Like all of us, they are aging! Older Millennials are well into their 30s. Because they grew up during a period of time with great technological changes, it’s become common to associate “Millennial” as “young, techy people,” or just young people in general. But remember, Millennials are getting older and a new audience you must focus more attention on is Generation Z. Today, we’ll look briefly at some distinctions between the two generations and then explore the platforms where Generation Z spends most of their time. This guide will take you through how to engage well on each of these platforms to increase the effectiveness of your communication with Gen Z.
