Write for Us Nonprofit Marketing: Nonprofit Marketing Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Nonprofit marketing content is heavy on mission and light on what raised money or built a list. What this blog wants is a real campaign, the appeal, the channel and the budget you had, and what it did to donations, volunteers or awareness.

My readers include founders and marketers who care about doing more with a small budget. They want the campaign and the result, so a nonprofit post has to teach from a real appeal, not a values statement.

60-second nonprofit marketing guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Have you run the nonprofit campaign you describe
• Do you have a sum raised, a signup or a real result
• Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
• Have you removed any pitch for a platform or agency
• Could another nonprofit copy your approach this week

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

• A fundraising campaign with the appeal and what it raised
• Growing a donor or supporter list on a small budget
• A storytelling approach that moved people to give, side by side
• A volunteer recruitment drive and what worked
• Email or social that lifted donations, with the numbers
• A year end appeal broken down by what performed
• A partnership or sponsorship that funded real work
• Measuring nonprofit marketing honestly, past reach

If your post could be published on any nonprofit marketing site with the logo swapped, it is not for us.

What we don't accept

• Mission statements dressed up as articles
• Posts that promote one platform or agency
• Generic advice on nonprofit branding with no campaign
• Previously published posts republished from another site
• Thin content under 800 words with no campaign behind it

What you get

• Your article in front of an engaged audience of business owners, marketers and founders
• One relevant, contextual link back to your own site
• A byline and the credibility of an established, high-traffic blog
• Editorial help to make the piece as strong as it can be before it goes live

How to submit

Send your pitch or draft through the contact form. Include the topic, the one specific problem the post solves, and a line on your first-hand experience with it. One idea per pitch works best. You will hear back on whether it is a fit before you write the full draft.

What a strong nonprofit marketing pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about the importance of storytelling for nonprofits." A strong one says "We rewrote our year end appeal around one family we had helped instead of our whole mission and donations rose by a third on the same list, so I want to show both versions of the email." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• A campaign with the appeal and what it raised
• List growth on a small budget
• Storytelling that moved people to give
• A campaign another nonprofit could copy this week
• A contrarian view on nonprofit branding

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept nonprofit marketing guest posts?

Yes. Nonprofit Marketing guest posts are welcome from a marketer, fundraiser or leader at a nonprofits and similar writers who have done the work and can share what happened. We publish practical articles with real examples and decline mission statements dressed as articles.

What nonprofit marketing topics do you accept?

We accept fundraising campaigns with results, growing donor lists on a small budget, storytelling that drives giving, volunteer recruitment, year end appeals, and honest measurement. The common thread is a specific lesson with a result attached, not a general overview of nonprofit marketing.

Can I include a link back to my own site?

One contextual link back to your own site is fine when it is relevant and helps the reader. Posts written purely to build a backlink with no real value are not published.

Do you accept previously published content?

No. Every submission must be original and not published anywhere else first, including your own blog, Medium, LinkedIn, or a guest slot on another site under a different name. Republished or lightly reworded content gets declined, and we check before it goes live.

How do I submit a nonprofit marketing guest post?

Send your pitch through the contact form with the topic, the specific result or lesson you will cover, and a line on your own experience doing the work you are writing about. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before writing a full draft.

Do you accept sponsored or commercial partnerships?

Commercial and partnership enquiries are handled separately from editorial guest posts. If you are a brand or agency wanting to work together rather than pitch an article, say so in the contact form and you will get the right details back.

How long should a nonprofit marketing guest post be?

There is no fixed word count, but posts that do well here usually run from 1,000 to 1,800 words. Long enough to show the example and the numbers, short enough that a busy owner finishes it. Cut anything that repeats what the reader already knows.

What makes a nonprofit marketing pitch stand out?

A real result in the first sentence. Say what you did, what changed and over what period, then say what the reader will be able to copy. For example: We rewrote our year end appeal around one family we had helped instead of our whole mission and donations rose by a third on the same list, so I want to show both versions of the email.
