A mission this important is too critical to go unnoticed.

As a leader, you carry the weight of your mission and the responsibility to sustain it. But when your story falls flat:

  • Donor engagement plateaus

  • Staff feel overextended and reactive

  • Board confidence wanes

  • Energy and resources are wasted

Why Three BrandScripts Matter

One message isn’t enough. Non-profits serve multiple audiences, and each audience needs to hear your story in a way that connects with their role. That’s why at humn we create three BrandScripts—so you’ll always know what to say, no matter who you’re talking to.

Together, these scripts give your non-profit clarity, confidence, and consistency across every channel.

Without a clear and effective plan, you risk…

  • Wasting time and money on ineffective campaigns

  • Lower ROI and missing valuable market opportunities

  • Damaging your brand's reputation through inconsistent messaging

  • Low conversion rates and difficulty retaining customers

  • Struggling to adapt to market changes and measure your success

  • Confusing your audience and weakening your brand positioning

  • “Since partnering with Rob and Curt at humn, we’ve developed a clear, compelling message through our BrandScript that truly reflects who we are and the people we serve. It’s become the foundation of our social media strategy—what used to take me 3–4 hours now takes about an hour. Even better, we’re seeing stronger engagement and more people reaching out who truly need our help. BrandScript has humanized our message and made it easier for the right clients to choose us.”
