According to the IRS, there are 16,755 active tax-exempt entities in Arkansas, including 13,480 designated 501(c)(3) public charities (charitable, religious, educational, etc.). These hard-working, public-serving organizations also generate $22 billion in revenue for the state.
Additionally, Arkansas remains among the highest in the nation for charitable giving as a percentage of disposable income (thanks to the Walton Family). It boasts a sizable workforce of 91,175 employees across the nonprofit sector.
However, due to recent emerging challenges, including federal funding cuts, program cancellations, and organizational uncertainty, nonprofits need strategic plans to sustain relevance, credibility, and financial stability.
That's where I come in. Hi, I'm Kat Daniels, and I want to help you succeed as a nonprofit in Arkansas.
Establishing and staying relevant is essential for growth, as it is the difference between a prospering nonprofit and a dying one. Brand and program development is not a one-and-done process; it is more about phases, strategically creating and refining, identifying potential, and staying focused on your "why and intent" that should be driving your mission. Key benefits of strategically developing your branding are:
Whether you are a public charity, foundation, or civic and minority service group, creating brand relevance enables you to market yourself effectively and gain a competitive edge, enhance donor relations, key stakeholder engagement, and community connections.
Key growth areas I can help with are:
Most nonprofits are reactionary when it comes to running their business. They don't have a strategy behind their brand, and outcomes are the byproduct of what goes into it. Brand management is essential for a nonprofit to thrive and for your brand to grow.
As a Certified Small Business Consultant and Certified AI and Digital Marketer, I bring over thirty years of experience in business development, brand strategy consulting, and mass media management to your team, whether you're a newly developed or established legacy. I provide unbiased guidance on business development and branding fundamentals, sharing proprietary research software, industry templates, and organizational tools to support your structure and mission, as well as product or program development, reputation management, communication, and marketing strategies.

Due to minimized team talent or funding, nonprofits and program administrators typically manage more roles and responsibilities. They are also more susceptible to economic downturns, misaligned workforces, or social injustice than their corporate counterparts.
The good news is you don't need a corporate budget or a team of many to become the better version of your brand or program. Once you understand what is limiting your success, we can start developing solutions to help you be more purposeful in your product, placement, and public perception. With proper development, brands and programs will establish credible reputations, increase revenue potential, and foster loyal community and donor relationships.
