Marketing agency for philanthropy, charity & social responsibility
Resources for clearer communication
You do not need to be ready for a full agency relationship to benefit from clearer communication. The guidance below can help you make progress internally, even if we never work together.
Quick checks for your current communication
A few simple questions to ask when you review existing websites, reports or campaign materials:
- • Would a new board member or trustee understand the basics after five minutes of reading?
- • Are you clear about what is certain, what is work in progress and what is still being tested?
- • Are any promises being made that depend on funding, regulation or partners outside your control?
- • Is it obvious where people can go if they have questions or concerns?
Writing down your answers to these questions can be a useful starting point for any future communication work.
Prompts for planning a report or proposal
Before you start drafting an impact report or major proposal, it can help to sketch:
- • One sentence on what has changed since last year.
- • Three short points on what has gone well.
- • Three short points on what has been difficult.
- • A simple description of what you plan to do next.
Even rough notes can dramatically improve the clarity of later drafts.
When to ask for outside support
External help is usually most useful when internal capacity is stretched, when decisions are complex, or when there are many audiences to consider.
If you are not sure whether Sampradaan is the right fit, a short exploratory conversation is often enough to decide either way. We are comfortable saying “not yet” or suggesting other specialists if that would be better for you.
