Hi Katya!  I absolutely agree.  Crafting a compelling story and communicating it effectively can make all the difference.

Thanks for visiting my blog :0)

I got goosebumps at the end of this video!  Thanks for sharing this powerful example of effective storytelling.  I just scheduled a tweet to send more traffic to your post, Katya.  Keep up the good work.  I love subscribing to your blog!

Hello Katya!

Just wanted to write a little comment to agree with you. I do the marketing in PR work for my nonprofit (Epilespy Foundation NE Donation Center) and as hard as it may seem somedays, we just have to stick it out and results will appear.

try to follow my blog, i try to keep it entertaining. Let me know what you think. www.epilepsyclothingdonations.wordpress.com

Byeee!

Oh what a wonderful and compelling story!  This is so wonderful and I wish there were more stories like this.  Thank you so much for sharing!

I wholeheartedly agree. Great story and points to a good path for non-profits to take.

Katya, a well-written and informative article. Storytelling is the method that we humans have been using for transferring information since, well, since the beginning of “social media”. I tell people think of the story that you most often use at a cocktail party. If it contains your NP, then this is probably a good one to use.

I will agree and informative to me…......thanks Katya

Great story and video. Google amazes us at times.

great story full of knowledge must read.it is very interesting story.

I love the compilation and the story, something to add, I am on internet since 1998 and something that impress me in how Google become part of our life, from the moment that is a new verb in our society and in very positive way.

Really cool video.  I was surprised how emotional it made me. Thinks about my journey in life so far.

The blog is a source of ideas, tactics, and tips for nonprofit communicators focused on Getting Attention and also helping their organizations succeed through effective marketing.

A very interesting story!

This is genius! You rock, Katya.

I absolutely love the video. Non-profits are great and I support them to the fullest. Thanks, http://www.mailmachinepro.com

Very interesting and compelling.  It moves you or it did me.  Lot of good info.  Thx

Thank you so much Katya for sharing this story.  Not only is it educational, it sure touched my heart as well.

Great story could not agree more. You have to dig out your stories and just carefully think about a different angle to present it to make it compelling. Some effort but well worth it…....

I think Google has WAY too much power over privacies but yet they give us more freedoms.

Google is taking over w

Good video, non-profits are forced to be creative with marketing, which can be just as inspiring, if not more.

I’m wondering what would we do without google…? Great video, thanks for sharing

Hi Katya

Very moving and eye opening.  This is a great video which sure touched my heart.  Thanks for sharing.

I don’t know about this. I think the idea has potential. But this video doesn’t seem to be engaging enough to get people interested to see how the story continues. Especially as many organizations offer information about the progress of real children they help.
But with a really good video this idea could very well work.

All good stories really need to set off emotions within the viewer…the best stories are the ones that excite us, move us, make us think twice.  We remember the emotions we feel and that makes us remember what brought those emotions to the surface.

I almost cried when I saw this video, I realized what my mother had done for me…

Thanks for sharing….
