Marketing Follow Up

We were joined by Destiny to go over the website audit provided by TK Marketing and Consulting. 

 

  • Destiny reviewed the audit prior to the meeting
  • Destiny felt comfortable taking on the project of enhancing the website

We agreed on the following:

  • For the first phase, we want to ensure the font and colors are cohesive
  • The home page needs to be revamped
  • We are looking to move towards a video carousel
  • It was mentioned that Tia likes the flow of Kipp website.
    • Destiny is going to find out what she likes about the website in particular
  • Kolt likes the flow of Drew Charter's website
    • Destiny is going to find out what makes that website appealing
  • Destiny will find a place for the tabs at the top
  • Social media links need to be moved
  • Communication for our Facebook and IG pages need to be handled
    • We have a working and active IG, however, Facebook needs to be managed. Possibly Destiny can connect with the vendor who is currently operating Facebook
  • We have a goal to get at least the first phase complete by mid October to push for "Giving Tuesday"
  • The tab at the top right will now say "Donate"
  • The Academic tab needs to be more flushed out
  • In the longterm, we want a fully functional website that is safe and everything all in one place with links. For example, aftercare links or links for t-shirt orders
