In today's world of economic uncertainty, charities, associations, and commununity groups more than ever need to be as effective as possible in their fundraising and management. We want to help, particularly those smaller organisations who are most affected by fluctuating amounts of funding.

Partnering with Wiremill Publishing we have now converted the popular series of QuickGuides fundraising and management guides into PDF files in order to slash costs and make them financially available to even the smallest non-profit.

We'll be putting the complete series on our website during the coming week. Jump right in and get the Fundraising Basics for only $39!

KPI's, PDs and all that HR/IR stuff

The recent changes to industrial relations legislation has really changed the landscape for many non-profit employers. One of the more important areas is unfair dismissal - now possibly affecting many more organisations.

NFPN members have direct access to our Employer Assist service with reduced rates, fact sheets, and diagnotic tools to help them comply and avoid the pitfalls of the new rules. If you have a HR or IR question then simply contact one of our team.

Supplier Directory back online

nfpn — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 22:00:27 +0000

After a brief hiatus our popular Supplier Directory is back online. We gave it a mini-makeover, just like we have with the rest of our website over the past few months.

With some new suppliers and many favourites still there (because they get so many new referrals from their listing!) there's plenty of choice for most services you'll need in your non-profit organisation.

Here's a selection of books we recommend. If there's some non-profit books you think are worthwile sharing, let us know and we'll add them to our Must Reads! list.

CopyLink has arrived!

nfpn — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 10:27:07 +0000

Having seen most books on membership and marketing for non-profits we were pretty skeptical that any resource could help us write better membership and marketing copy.

However, our expectations were quickly blown away when I received CopyLink.

This 124 page e-book provides a serious and susbstantive way to make your copy leap from the page - attracting more media, and helping you to recruit and retain your member, donors, clients, and customers.

Designed for membership and marketing staff, offering a proven, low cost, easy to use program we can thoroughly say that CopyLink is a marketing and advertising copywriting (and training) program that you will treasure. We highly recommend it.
