Excellent article/blog on Guerrilla Marketing and the Seven Keys to Finding Your Niche. I am writing you for your opinion and help on direction, as I have come to the conclusion I am going to need some help beyond the normal, traditional sources to form and succeed with a non profit.
Upon reading your information and being as honest as I know with my answers, I am convinced now more than ever I have a model that matches and sometimes goes beyond your seven points and still maintains itself within a niche.
Furthermore, I have mixed emotions about moving forward and sharing my model, as I would be in heaven to see my model become an overnight phenomenon in all the projected metropolitan areas where it should succeed; yet I am reluctant to throw all my cards on the table fearing my idea would be scooped up, promoted and made famous without my efforts amd entry into the market.
Please respond and hopefully with more than just a five word sentence.
Regards

There are already great umbrella orgs like TechSoup to address nonprofit technology. Our audience is specifically nonprofits in the lowcountry area of South Carolina.

Most NPOs could stand a reality check of a little basic research. There are a lot of them that believe if their idea seems good to them, it must be a good idea to the target audience.

It seems like something so simple, yet it is also something that can be easy to overlook. I think it can be hard to measure responsiveness of your audience. Do you have any great suggestions for gauging need/responsiveness?
