Many nonprofits–including yours–have the potential to earn significant income from their programs. In these 101 Best Ideas, Richard Steckel and his colleagues create the recipe for you: two parts know-how, one part creativity, and a big dash of courage. Read this book and get cooking!”

“The pressures impinging on nonprofits are daunting: Escalating costs, diminishing resources, increased competition for charitable dollars, and a constantly expanding universe of people in need. Richard Steckel has long been recognized as one of the founders of the social marketing movement in the United States and elsewhere. He’s spent a lifetime helping nonprofits and other NGOs cope, and frequently thrive, by exploring new forms of revenue-generation and new types of partnerships with government agencies, for-profit companies and other nonprofits. Now he and his colleagues have assembled 101 of the most compelling, promising and challenging social marketing ideas going-and we are all in their debt.”
