Nancy Schwartz asked our community and other nonprofit communities a few weeks ago about their favorite nonprofit email newsletters. She was nice enough to share back this great slide deck about email newsletter best practices and strategies. Thank you!

Congrats to Kivi Leroux Miller on her book launch and her amazing Amazon rankings! And, true to form, she wrote up her marketing experiences and strategies here for us all to learn from. Seriously, you should read her "case study" on driving buzz using blogging, Twitter, and Facebook -- and email.

I stumbled across this post this week, and I'm glad I did: The Nonprofit Dashboard, where Barbara Talisman gives great advice about building and using a dashboard effectively to track goals and outcomes at your organization. She also provides a link to a sample dashboard one nonprofit is using. Thanks, Barbara! (And, if you're working on this issue at your organization, you should definitely check out our Taming the Data Monster workshop coming in July).

Wild Apricot blogged about the updated sharing tool on LinkedIn and suggests ways nonprofits and their supporters can use it to help spread the word about their news and work. Thanks for updating us! And, hat tip to Norman Reiss for the heads-up.

We are so proud of Allyson Kapin and Ellen Miller being featured as two of "DC's Most Influential Women in Tech" at the upcoming Sweets and Tweets event. Congrats!
