No Sweat DIY Infographics

February 27, 2013 Filed Under: Measurement

Most of think about infographics as part of our marketing and communications tool box.  Therefore,  we want an end product that looks good, professional, and captures attention and if we lack graphic design chops  we turn to in-house graphic designers or hire professional designers..    I couldn't agree more! But there is another reason to consider "DIY" infographics - as a sense-making technique.    My personal rule in measurement is to spend 30% collecting and organizing data and 70% thinking … [Read more...] about No Sweat DIY Infographics

February 21, 2013 Filed Under: Measurement

Yesterday,  I had the pleasure of doing a webinar on measurement and nonprofit for Kivi at the Nonprofit Marketing Guide.  One of the questions I was asked,  "Why Data Informed? Why Not Data-Driven?"

Can You Measure Love?

February 14, 2013 Filed Under: Measurement

Happy Generosity Day!    The idea of moving Valentine’s Day away from dinner reservations and singles awareness towards a day of generous acts began in 2011 by Sasha Dichter, Scott Case, Ellen McGirt, and Network for Good's Katya Andresen. The premise is simple. Today, think about you can be generous and then…just…be generous. [slideshare id=16530292&doc=measurementwebinar-feb13bethkanterfinal-130214103651-phpapp01] My way of being generous is to share and facilitate sharing of knowledge … [Read more...] about Can You Measure Love?
