Impact Ventures

The Client

Impact Ventures, a Dallas-based nonprofit, is dedicated to empowering women and BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) founders through robust programming and capital support. The organization’s marketing was led by a single communications manager who oversaw a broad spectrum of marketing activities, such as social media, website maintenance, graphic design, email communication, and event promotions. Despite these efforts, brand channels were not consistently generating the organization’s desired level of engagement and did not have enough support to manage them consistently.

  • Enhance Marketing Team Capabilities: Expand the capacity and capabilities of the marketing team with MRC’s strategic oversight and management.
