I think it is very important to invlove your community with your cause as Russ Reid spoke about. Be upfront and let the public know what you are doing through direct mail and other forms of advertising. Use your radio and TV media together with direct mail. Try to make these things at the same time...so people will hear the branding of your organizations name over and over. When you make the ask, it will already be known what your organization does.

The lecture that Russ Reid gave was very helpful. He reiterated that people will give. Our job is to change the way that people think about something. I know that I need to learn more about how to take advantage of the media . Also, I found it interesting that in addition to planning, that he said we must spend money in order to get money.I also realized why our ads are not as productive as I would like--could be the day, the page, etc. I will ask more questions before I run another ad.
