Would definitely consider a revised version. Anything that does not include the pandemic and post-pandemic content is out of date and needs to be revised. Further, given this was published in 2006, there have been significant advancements in digital direct response marketing for nonprofits (paid and search) which would need to be its own chapter. -- Dr Dale Donald Bannon * drupal *
The text is outdated. I like the content but it was published in 2006. If it were a 2022 or newer, I would consider it. -- Dr Jeff Hilla * drupal *
It fits the coverage I need for the course while not being so detailed as to seem enclyclopedic to students. -- Dr Ralph W. Jackson * drupal *
I have been using Andreasen Strategic Marketing for Nonprofit Orgs. My colleague at Northeastern uses the Wymer text. I am not impressed. I find Andreasen laid out in a more accessible format. Tables and exhibits seem more useful, readily adoptable, in real nonprofit situations. Both textbooks are in need of an update or new accompanying DVD addressing social media. The Gomes/Knowles CV/M Matrix is a promising tool for assessing program efficacy. With more application examples, can become a free-standing chapter. -- Mr Steven Smith * drupal *
