Non-Profit Marketing Resources

Here you will find a searchable bank of marketing resources that support the non-profit sector. Many of which we use here at CVS and many others used by organisations in the Cheshire East area.

If you would like more support with your marketing practice and inicaitives, you are welcome to join the free CVS Marketing Network.

In support of the CVS Marketing Network and the local sector, we have comprised a bank of resources you can utilise in your marketing initiatives. Marketing is not an academic field, it's considered more of an art form as what might work today might not tomorrow or what might work for you won't necessarily work for another. It's important to keep up to speed on best practice and the currently effective ways to promote your organisation, join the CVS Marketing Network and discover how you might take full advantage of these resources and the wider knowledge offered by other network members.
