Nonprofit Marketing for Greater Impact

Your organization is doing important work. Making sure the right people know about it, understand its value, and feel inspired to get involved takes a thoughtful marketing strategy and the capacity to carry it out.

Crayons & Marketers is a Nashville-based marketing agency that works exclusively with nonprofits and purpose-driven organizations. We help strengthen communications, fundraising marketing, and community outreach when organizations need more strategy, expertise, or capacity than they have internally.

Work With Us

our mission

To bridge the gap between purpose and people by amplifying the missions that move our communities forward.

We worked with Crayons & Marketers on our marketing plan. Jacqueline and her team were easy to work with and took the time to understand our business. They developed a LinkedIn strategy for our business and helped us think differently about both messaging and social media. Our expertise is human resources, so marketing is not our strength. Crayons & Marketers provided the marketing expertise we needed!

I have worked with Crayons & Marketers on several projects that called for strategic marketing and I can’t recommend them enough. Jacqueline Hayes and her team treat every project individually and strive to uncover the story behind the client’s brand or product, and how best to present that story in appropriate marketing channels. Besides her professionalism, Jacqueline is smart and energetic and just plain great to work with!

I am especially appreciative of the partnership Jacqueline Hayes and her team provides. They are truly an extension of our staff which is extremely beneficial because we have a very small team.
