About Kelley Marketing Group: For over 40 years, Kelley Marketing Group has met monthly to provide pro-bono marketing advice to nonprofit organizations so they may thrive and improve our community. The “consultants” who gather include just-starting-out and seasoned marketing professionals, as well as faculty, staff, students, and alumni of Champlain College and other area colleges melding the community with academia. The nonprofit client completes a questionnaire outlining the marketing topic about which they are seeking advice. Consultants get access to the questionnaire in advance of the meeting to get their creative juices flowing in anticipation of sharing out during the 90-minute session. Consultants can attend just an occasional meeting or join in the conversation every month. This is a great opportunity to network, build experience, and pay it forward.
