Editorial Reviews

"Jocelyn Daw has done a meaningful service to nonprofit cause marketers with her book Cause Marketing for Nonprofits. She brings real-world experience, workable suggestions and a sharp pencil to a topic that has, too often in my view, been drawn with a broad brush." (CharityChannel.com, 8/7/08)

"Jocelyn Daw, a recognized authority who has been involved in cause marketing since 1988, draws on her considerable experience to outline the many ways nonprofits can partner with the business community for mutual benefit. One of the most useful parts of the book was Chapter 12, which includes the Seven Golden Rules and Seven Deadly Sins of cause marketing. Among most important caveats are making sure to pick the right partners and that the relationship is not one sided or too commercial." (Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly, Vol. 37, No 1)
