  • The Role of Greed Perceptions in Consumer Support for Social Ventures
    To Profit or Not to Profit? The Role of Greed Perceptions in Consumer Support for Social Ventures SAEROM LEE LISA E. BOLTON KAREN PAGE WINTERICH An increasing number of social ventures are for-profit companies (i.e., for- profit social ventures) that seek to advance a social cause while making a profit. In a series of seven studies, this research investigates consumer sup- port for organizations as a function of their social mission and profit orienta- tion. The impact of profit orientation on consumer support depends on the prominence of the organization’s social mission. For organizations with a prominent social mission, profits are interpreted as a signal of greed; absent a prominent social mission, a for-profit orientation can instead imply greater competence. As a result, consumer support of for-profit social ventures suffers in comparison to both nonprofits and traditional for-profits—a downside to the organizational benefits of for-profit social ventures identified in prior research. In addition, this research investigates organizational factors—including exces- sive organizational spending, profit perceptions, and operational efficiency cues—that alter greed perceptions and consequently support for for-profit so- cial ventures. Together, this research sheds light on consumer reaction to organizations that support social causes, with implications for the social ven- ture marketplace, including the nonprofit versus for-profit quandary faced by social entrepreneurs. Keywords: for-profit social ventures, nonprofit, greed, social mission, profit orienta- tion, communal norms A social entrepreneur’s quandary: non-profit or for-profit? Saerom Lee ([email protected]) is assistant professor of marketing —New York Times, 10 July 2013 at the University of Texas at San Antonio, College of Business, One For love or lucre UTSA Circle, San Antonio, TX 78249.

  • Wholewhale's the Nonprofit Organization's Guide to Social Media
    The Nonprofit Organization’s Guide to Social Media ________________________________________________________ Being active on social media is no longer optional. As organizations compete with both traditional brands and other nonprofit organizations, it’s more important than ever to stand out on social channels with a distinctive personality. It’s usually not enough to throw up haphazard posts on Facebook or Twitter and expect supporters to come. Successful social media communications occurs through thoughtful, strategic planning, setting measurable objectives, and committing to consistency. This guide explores both the reasons for nonprofits to invest in social media and how to make those efforts as successful as possible—no matter how limited or expansive your social media resources. @WholeWhale [email protected] Why Invest in Social Media? Social media provides a unique opportunity for nonprofits. It enables organizations to: ● Clarify and increase their brand and mission awareness ● Attract new audiences while engaging current supporters ● Retain and grow donor bases and revenue streams Why Now? ● Many nonprofits already have a robust social media presence. There is competition for this airspace and the sooner you enter, the faster you can build up a strong presence. ● More than 85 percent of U.S. adults are active on social media networks; it has become the primary way for people to communicate and engage with one other and with the causes that are important to them ● There’s a changing communications landscape: While traditional nonprofit communications took a “top-down” approach, with things like events, print press, and speaking engagements comprising the bulk of messaging to audiences, today’s “bottom-up” approach enables organizations to engage directly with those people who are most critical to them by taking advantage of social media platforms.
