The nonprofit marketing agency for everything your mission needs.

Every week someone lands on your site with a gift in mind and leaves without giving: the page is slow, the story is buried, the form asks too much. Every one of those leaks has a known fix, and together they turn goodwill into funding.

How we help

Support leaks out at every step.
We close the gaps.

From the first search to the thank-you email, most nonprofits lose supporters to friction that has nothing to do with the mission.

A brand your board can defend

Identity, messaging and guidelines that survive scrutiny

Somewhere in a drawer there is a logo a volunteer made years ago, and your team has been apologizing for it ever since: on grant applications, on event banners, next to partners who look sharper than they work. A nonprofit brand vouches for the mission to donors, members, press and regulators all at once, and yours has to hold that weight everywhere, down to forty pixels on somebody else's website.

Every engagement ends with guidelines your team can actually use, and for full identity projects, a living brand hub at its own address: every file, every rule, ready for the next hire, the next printer, the next agency. Nothing gets lost in a drawer.

A website built for donors,
members and grant reviewers

Fast, accessible, honest, and easy to give through

Every month people arrive at your website ready to give, and leave without giving. Not because the mission failed them: because the page did. Three very different people judge it, the donor deciding in ninety seconds, the member looking for their community, and the reviewer checking you before a grant. The page has to serve all three at once: accessible to WCAG 2.2, giving flows that work on a phone, and proof of the work instead of adjectives.

Because we build low-carbon sites on green hosting, the website itself becomes part of the mission story instead of a contradiction of it. And we hand it over unlocked, on WordPress your team can edit, with training videos so nobody depends on us to change a date.

Getting found, by people and by AI

SEO, content and the visibility layer most nonprofits skip

Right now somebody is searching for exactly what you do, finding an organization that does it worse, and giving to them. Your supporters search before they give, and increasingly they ask an AI assistant instead of Google. Being findable in both worlds takes structure: plain answers near the top of every page, data that says who you are, and content that earns citations, not just clicks.

We also publish practical guidance on the Google Ad Grant program, from eligibility to keeping an account compliant, and we build the landing pages a Grant needs to convert. And if you want to know how trustworthy your site looks to a first-time donor right now, run it through WouldTheyGive, the free trust-score tool we built for exactly that question.

FAQs

Nonprofit questions, answered.

What boards and directors ask before they commit a budget.

What does a nonprofit marketing agency do?

A nonprofit marketing agency helps mission-driven organizations turn their work into support: a brand people trust, a website that makes giving and joining easy, content that explains the mission plainly, and systems that keep donors and members engaged. At Planet Media that covers branding, web design, SEO, content and automation, built for teams where everyone already wears three hats.

How much does nonprofit marketing cost?

It depends on scope, but the starting points are public: our website projects start at $5,000, and monthly marketing or maintenance plans are priced to the size of the organization. We put numbers in writing after one conversation, so a board can review a real figure instead of an estimate.

Do you work with small nonprofits or only large organizations?

Both. Our nonprofit clients range from national certification networks to small conservation and community organizations. What matters is not size but that the mission is real, because our whole approach is built on proving real work rather than decorating it.

Can you help with the Google Ad Grant?

We publish practical guidance on the Google Ad Grant program, including eligibility and the application process, and we build the landing pages and website structure a Grant account needs to stay compliant and actually convert. Start with our Ad Grants guide on the blog.

How is marketing for a nonprofit different from marketing a business?

The audience gives money or time and gets impact back, so trust does the work price does in commerce. That changes everything: proof and transparency lead, accessibility is non-negotiable because your audience includes everyone, and every campaign has to survive the question "is this a good use of donor money?". We design for that question.

Do you build donation and membership flows?

Yes. We design and build donation pages, membership signups and supporter journeys as part of the website, tested on mobile where most giving happens, and connected to your email and CRM so a first gift can become a relationship.

What nonprofit marketing services do you offer?

Branding and identity, website design and development, donation and membership flows, SEO and content, email and CRM journeys, digital marketing campaigns and Google Ad Grant guidance. Some organizations hire us as their full agency, others bring us in as a nonprofit marketing consultant for a single project. Same senior team either way.

Do you work with charities, NGOs and not-for-profit organizations outside Colorado?

Yes. We are based in Denver and work remotely with nonprofits, charities, NGOs and not-for-profit organizations across the United States. Reviews, workshops and reporting all run online, and our featured nonprofit work includes national networks headquartered far beyond Colorado.

Why choose Planet Media over a generalist agency?

Because nonprofits are not a side account for us. Eight of our twelve featured case studies are nonprofits and mission-led networks, we built WouldTheyGive, a free trust-score tool for nonprofit websites, and we have been doing this work since 1999. You talk to the senior people doing the work, not an account layer.
