Celebrating the Best in Nonprofit Taglines—The Taggies
A strong tagline does double-duty — working to extend your organization’s name and mission, while delivering a focused, memorable and repeatable message to your base.
But our recent Nonprofit Messages Survey showed just 29% of organizations like yours have a tagline that connects and spurs action.
The Awards program is designed to inspire and guide your organizations to deliver taglines that connect quickly and strongly with your target audiences—Aha! messages that build and strengthen key relationships for the long term.
Since 2008, the GettingAttention.org community and other nonprofit communicators, other staff and supporters have been enthusiastic participants in the Nonprofit Tagline Awards program (a.k.a. The Taggies)—entering their own taglines and spreading the word to peers to do the same, voting to select award winners and learning what works and what doesn’t via each the Nonprofit Tagline Database and Report.
Getting to Aha! is doable, for every organization. Go for it!
Thanks for the inspiration, advice and encouragement.
We couldn’t have done it without The Taggies!
“About the time you were holding the first Taggies, we were knee-deep in developing our first strategic marketing plan—with the help of a couple of talented, local board members, we managed to get thru the process and finalize our branding guidelines developed in four months!
‘We are Smiles Change Lives and we provide essential, life-changing orthodontic treatment for children from low-income families: Bracing kids for a better future!’
“Your emails during the contest helped fuel our desire to develop the right tagline and we believe we have. Thanks for the inspiration, advice and encouragement thru your emails and webinars. We couldn’t have done it without the Taggies!”
This program is made possible thanks to the generous sponsorship of
Change.org and See3.
