Sharpen Your Story Coaching Call

a focused strategy session for nonprofits looking to communicate more clearly and confidently

Get expert help telling your nonprofit's story

Get nonprofit branding expert Lauren Atherton inside your org for a focused, strategy session. We’ll use your personality result to shape a message donors “get” fast—and a simple plan to use it everywhere.

You’ll walk away with:

  • Clear story: say what you do in seconds using personality-aligned language that makes donors lean in.
  • Consistent voice: shared talking points and tone so the whole team sounds like one organization (finally).
  • Confident plan: know what to say, to whom, and when—so emails, intros, and asks stop feeling like guesswork.

What exactly do we get?

A 60-minute 1:1 strategy call (recorded) + one week of email support. You’ll leave with a clear core message, personality-aligned talking points, and a 30-day donor outreach mini-plan.

Do I need to take the Brand Personality Quiz first?

Yes. You’ll share your result in a short questionnaire so we can hit the ground running.

Do I need to prepare anything else?

Just the questionnaire. I’ll review it before our call so we can move fast.

Can I bring another person?

Absolutely! But only up to two additional people so that we can stay on track and on time. Smaller groups make faster decisions, so invite folks who will be working with your brand.

What if we need to reschedule or cancel?

I get it, life happens. You can reschedule with 24 hours’ notice, but sessions are non-refundable. 

Will I get a recording and notes?

Yes. After our call I'll share the recording and a Google Doc so you can focus on the conversation and use the action plan afterwards!

What if I have questions after our call?

You'll have one week of email support. After that, you can schedule a follow-up call or book the Brand Level-Up if you’re ready to refresh your brand visuals.
