Digital advertising is not what it used to be, especially in the healthcare industry.

Phoenix Innovate (PI), a dynamic leader of innovative marketing solutions headquartered in Troy, Mich., has merged with The Lukens Company (TLC) a premier full-service marketing agency specializing in direct response, donor development, and fundraising services for nonprofits, cultural institutions, advocacy groups and faith-based organizations. 

Schools have an obligation to protect the privacy of students and families, but in today’s technology-driven world, it has become a challenge. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) outlines how administrators and faculty can secure families’ private information, but increased cyberthreats and cyberattacks have posed a challenge for both K-12 and secondary schools. 

Vice President of Accounting and Finance Matthew Mahalak says he heard great things about Phoenix Innovate (PI) long before he started working here in December 2022, and it’s been even better than he expected.

The landscape of nonprofit donor demographics is changing, as millennials and Gen Zers are increasingly becoming more engaged with organizations that they believe in.

In today's crowded marketing landscape, it can be challenging to stand out and connect with your audience, but using data insights to reach them can make a significant difference.

Understanding donors’ motivations based on evidence is key to effective fundraising. On the surface, that’s a logical concept, but so many fundraising organizations overlook the importance of analyzing data and instead keep doing what they’ve always done – because it works every now and then.

To maximize your return on investment (ROI), it’s essential that you effectively reach and engage your target audiences. Successful organizations maintain long-lasting relationships with their customer or donor audiences by using various retention marketing principles.

Melanie Madurski has been a part of Phoenix Innovate (PI) as a Client Relations Coordinator with EMPOWER for more than 12 years. Due to PI’s continued growth, however, it became evident that we needed someone with a core focus on Human Resources functions, and Melanie had the perfect combination of experience and skills to fit the bill.

Finding and retaining major donors can be challenging, especially in lean economic times. However, major donors who are committed to an organization’s mission and vision are likely to continue to support the organization – in good times and bad.

Marketing is the lifeline of any business. It’s the process of creating, communicating and delivering products and services to customers with the aim of satisfying them and achieving business goals. The success of any marketing campaign depends on the marketer's understanding of the audience.
