Executive Summary
Starving Artists is a non-profit organization that operates a gallery that displays the works
of local artists. The organization is the only visual arts charity in town. At this time, the
organization often struggles to pay its bills. The mission statement of Starving Artists is:
Starving Artists is a non-profit organization seeking to support and inspire our local artists and
our community.
The goal of the Board of Directors is to see a five percent increase in membership,
thereby increasing revenue and making the organization financially stable. The demographics in
the community that Starving Artists serves have significantly changed from the previous decade,
and the organization desires to market successfully to the diverse community. The strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities, and threats have been identified, allowing Starving Artists to set
marketing objectives.
The marketing objectives may be obtained by following the strategies that have been
developed for target markets and positioning, product, pricing, promotional, and supply chain.
Action plans have been developed, along with responsibility guidelines to implement the plan, a
timeline, budget information, and measurement and control for the plan.
By implementing this marketing plan, Starving Artists will become a viable organization
in the community. The artists will be supported and inspired, and a world of creativity and
excitement will be brought to the community and beyond.

Situation Analysis
Internal Environment
Starving Artists is a local non-profit organization that operates an art gallery to display
the works of local artists. The business mission statement is: Starving Artists is a non-profit
organization seeking to support and inspire our local artists and our community.
The organization is run by a Board of Directors. In addition to the Board of Directors,
the organizational culture of Starving Artists includes a paid staff that consists of an Executive
Director and three part-time gallery attendants. The Executive Director is overworked as she has
no business development support from the gallery attendants and has very little support from the
community. The organization has a tight budget and often struggles to pay the bills. As a result,
there has been little money or time available for marketing activities; and membership has not
increased in the past year.
In the past, Starving Artists has mainly chosen an undifferentiated targeting strategy, with
the entire community serving as one market. The visual arts products that the gallery displays
and sells include oil and water paintings, photography, ceramics, pottery, and sculpture. Each
artist prices his or her own artwork. The annual membership fee is $40 for an individual member
and $35 for an exhibiting member. With limited resources, the organization has had very little
promotion. The local newspaper provides a free Community Calendar listing, and the local radio
station offers a free community calendar announcement. An attractive window display serves as
an advertisement to prospective customers. At this time, there is no established website or social
media. The supply chain consists of the Executive Director assessing the kinds of art that are
currently in demand and making sure that the supply offered by the exhibitors equals the demand
of the consumers. All exhibiting artists are responsible for obtaining their own art supplies.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 4
Starving Artists is unique in that it is the only visual arts non-profit organization in town.
Artists are provided with adequate space to display their works in the gallery for everyone in the
community to see and buy. The Executive Director and Board of Directors are passionate about
the arts and promoting the arts to the community. In the past year, a limited number of
workshops were conducted to create additional revenue and expose people in the community to
the visual arts.
The goal of the Board of Directors is to increase membership by five percent. Marketing
supports the organization’s mission, objectives, and growth strategies. These marketing
strategies will increase membership, enable the organization to bring in more funds, create a
greater awareness in the community, provide assistance to the Executive Director, and position
Starving Artists to become a successful non-profit organization that supports the local visual
artists and the community.
External Environment
In defining Starving Artists’ market size, limitations must be first delineated
geographically and secondly defined by demographics. With time being a critical factor in
today’s fast-paced lifestyle, determining a hard geographic boundary for a market is difficult.
Approximate figures show 34,000 people are located within a 10-mile radius of Starving Artists,
with numbers jumping respectively to 109,000 and 314,000 at the 20- and 30-mile radiuses.
According to a Kaiser Family Foundation 2012 report, North Carolina ethnicity breakdown is 63
percent white, 21 percent black, 8 percent Hispanic, and 7 percent other (“Population
Distribution by Race/Ethnicity”). As will be discussed further, Starving Artists’ future success
relies on diversifying its consumer base to reflect active involvement representing the ethnic
diversity of its market.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 5
Although there are no public art galleries within a 23-mile radius of the location of the
organization, competition is experienced in the cultural arts market from two separate
performing arts groups, one specializing in theatrical performances and the other in musical
performances. Even though neither of these is a visual arts genre, both venues are representative
of the various non-profit organizations struggling to capture the finite sponsorship dollars and
consumers within the same geographic area.
Examination of the organization’s respective donors list indicates successful
philanthropic marketing among local government, businesses, and private individuals. From an
outsider’s view, it appears that revenue and attendance from the actual performances are not
regarded as a primary marketing concern or a self-sustaining source of funding. This fact,
combined with the prominent names of benefactors, leads one to believe that marketing choices
are based upon psychographic lifestyle segmentation focused toward the socially outgoing upper
classes.
A continued nemesis of Starving Artists is the floundering economy, which challenges
marketing on several fronts. With less disposable/discretionary monies available to local
government, businesses, and families, charitable donations have taken a direct hit. Reduced
income and higher unemployment for families exacerbate the situation, as not only the financial
capability to attend the gallery is curtailed, but the time available for family outings is
diminished as parents work longer hours and second jobs to make ends meet.
No trends are seen in the regulatory environment that would threaten the non-profit status
of Starving Artists or change the taxable donation benefits for its donors. Technological changes
in the environment provide both challenges and possibilities. The Internet provides consumers a
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 6
tool that enables them to explore the world of visual arts without ever leaving home; this same
tool can be used to entice them to experience the splendor of the arts firsthand at Starving Artists.
A common thread in the marketing plan is a focus on the social and cultural environment
of the Starving Artists’ community. The region has witnessed a significant change of
demographics and influence from not only the influx of families relocating from the
Northeastern states, but as research from the UNC-Charlotte Urban Institute shows, North
Carolina’s Hispanic population in 2010 had almost doubled from the previous decade (Chesser).
Starving Artists’ financial stability is linked to marketing successfully to its diverse community.
SWOT Analysis
Strengths
Only visual arts charity in town
Local artists being given a chance to display and potentially sell their works
Workshops being offered for all ages to ensue creativity among those who participate
Exemption from corporate income tax on profits from activities related to the purpose
of the organization (e.g., gallery exhibits and functions, workshops)
Executive Director passionate about visual arts and the organization’s success
Weaknesses
Lack of funds to pay bills without struggling
Executive Director overworked with trying to keep the business organized
No business development support from gallery attendants
Lack of volunteers to support the day-to-day operations
Absence of a strategy for the organization to create awareness and gather community-
wide support
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 7
Failing to fill the needs of the diverse cultural background in the community
Minimal membership growth in recent years
Lack of action by Board of Directors to establish a supportive, stable organization
Online presence not established
Opportunities
Memberships increased by adding workshops and exhibits
Community ties strengthened and donations increased through featured artist exhibits
New customers attracted and new markets entered through targeted marketing
Additional marketing opportunities created with website development
Social media presence established through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vine, and
blog
Additional customer (family/parent) demographic attracted by establishing art
program for children
New clients drawn and value-added services created by offering facility for use in the
community for conferences, seminars, or meetings
Community awareness raised and donations increased for Starving Artists by hosting
an annual gala and arts festival
Overall operating capital increased by submitting applications for visual arts grants
Threats
Less family disposable income, meaning higher perceived importance placed on
getting the most value for the dollar
Multitude of other options for family/personal outings (movies, sports, parks, etc.)
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 8
Less time in life for family outings with more parents in the workforce and longer
working hours
Deficits in education budgets, meaning reduced/removed field trips to art locations
and less exposure to art
Children and teens more interested in their “real world” of social networking and
dynamic gaming, and less interested in the arts and culture
More opportunities available for the art enthusiast within reasonable driving distance
Fewer profits correlated to reduced corporate advertising through community-
sponsored events
Less state and local money available for grants to the arts community
Multitude of other options for sponsorship dollars; i.e., sporting events/teams,
national organizations with local chapters (Red Cross, United Way), Boys and Girls
Clubs, etc.
Artists drawn to their own subcultures, generally found in larger metropolitan areas,
making it difficult to maintain an adequate inventory of quality displays
Marketing Objectives
The main marketing objective of Starving Artists is to see a five percent increase in the
total current membership of 2,000 members by the end of December 2015. To reach this goal
and increase revenue, the organization needs to increase personal donations by $10,000 and
corporate donations by $50,000; hold a rebranding event or gala where corporate sponsors are
announced; double the number of visits per year to the gallery from 500 in 2014 to 1,000 in
2015; add 20 additional volunteers; apply for available grants for the visual arts; develop and
promote a website; create and promote social media channels; ensure that both the art displays
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 9
and visitors are representative of the community ethnic demographics and that diversity is
embraced; and display the work of at least 25 new artists. To create more awareness of Starving
Artists, the number of workshops and school field trips should be increased by at least 50 percent
from 12 in 2014 to 24 or more in 2015; a minimum of one traveling exhibit per year should be
planned; and at least one community arts festival per year should be organized. Additional
revenue should be realized by renting space for private events.
Marketing Strategies
Target Markets and Positioning
Because of the unique nature of non-profit organizations, multi-faceted plans must be
created to target the divergent markets that are encountered. In general, the focus is on three
distinct categories of consumers. The first is the “art observers,” which includes schools,
families, and individuals who visit the gallery as a means of personal and cultural growth.
Members of this group are expected to be a minimal source of income through donations and
spontaneous purchases of less expensive art work and gift shop items.
The second target market is that of the “art collectors.” Whether novices or experienced
consumers, this group is defined more by disposable income than delineated social classes and
demographics. Recognizing that consumer tastes in art work will be eclectic and that these items
represent social displays and/or personal statements of the purchaser, a primary positioning
strategy will involve rotation of artists, styles, and themes at the gallery. Buying decision
involvement at this level ranges from limited decision making for practiced collectors or smaller
dollar value items, to extensive decision making for novice enthusiasts or high value purchases.
Art collectors are expected to be a moderate income source with more substantial acquisitions of
original art, repeated visits, membership purchases, and possible donor involvement.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 10
The third target market is that of the “benefactors.” This target market focuses on
businesses (both local and regional) and individuals, primarily from the upper social classes.
Social visibility is the primary concern of benefactors and patrons of the arts and the major
driving force in deciding on the fit between organization and non-profit. Investment in non-
profits makes a bold statement about the social values of businesses and individuals.
Although benefactors represent possibly the most influential reference group and embody
the greatest financial opportunity for Starving Artists, blindly accepting sponsorship is not
advised. Members of this group will become the public faces of the organization; and before
committing to a mutual alliance, due diligence is required. The Starving Artists name must be
represented in a positive, socially acceptable manner.
The combined marketing strategies are focused on repositioning the organization in the
minds of the consumers. Paramount to the success is changing existing beliefs about Starving
Artists from a “been there, got the T-shirt” gallery to that of consumer anticipation, leaving
consumers wondering what surprises will be in store on their next visit. In addition, the
organization will be adding new beliefs with regard to the uses of the facilities, such as providing
a unique event location for local groups and businesses. Shifts in beliefs are geared toward
recognition of core changes in the positioning bases, including expanded attributes and
emotional enjoyment.
Product Strategies
Although Starving Artists is a non-profit charity that operates a local gallery, the
organization still aims to sell products on behalf of the artists it represents. The artwork sold can
be viewed in three levels: the core product, actual product, and augmented product. The core
product of the artwork is the benefit of the art to the buyer, which can be defined as the beauty or
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 11
interest he or she finds in the art of the product. The actual product is the tangible product, or the
artwork itself. The augmented product is the added value of the art, which can be added
customer service or post-sales services to enhance the value of the product, and can be especially
important to an organization like Starving Artists. To add value to products and services,
Starving Artists can offer to roll, secure, wrap or frame products sold through the gallery and
provide the supplies needed to do so through community partnerships and supply chain
strategies.
The product line and mix offered by Starving Artists is largely dependent on the artists
and the pieces they display on their behalf. To display the differentiation of the product line,
Starving Artists may utilize various specialty gallery events to showcase similar art forms
separately, such as paintings, sculptures, pottery, or photography, to appeal to customers drawn
to those specific types of art. The gallery may also implement live art shows in order for artists
to allow customers to watch artists create pieces or for customers to make personal requests to
initiate further product sales.
All products sold through Starving Artists should include the artist’s signature, to ensure
the artist receives proper credit for his or her piece. Starving Artists’ logo should be added to
any frames sold through the gallery, as well as on the back or bottom of any pieces sold through
the gallery. The logo should also be included on any packaging used for transport from the
gallery to allow the brand to be dispersed and recognized throughout the community.
Pricing Strategies
To increase membership by five percent during the course of the year from January 1,
2015-December 31, 2015, Starving Artists will offer various membership levels. These are the
levels of membership offered and the different perks for each:

Two free classes or workshops of choice
One additional free ticket to the annual gala (total of three tickets)
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 13
Recognition on the gallery wall as a Picasso contributor
Company branding on publications for corporate benefactors
Promotional Strategies
Starving Artists is dedicated to supporting and inspiring the local artists and the
community. This consistent message should be portrayed throughout the community with
excitement about the art gallery, workshops, and other fun events sponsored by Starving Artists.
Artwork and activities provided by the organization should embrace diversity. The organization
should continue to advertise in the newspaper, on the radio, and in window displays. However,
additional promotional strategies must be added:
A website should be developed and promoted. The website needs to be user-friendly
and attractive to both youth and adults. The web address should be posted on all
publications and advertisements.
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vine, and blog accounts should be created. To
encourage people to join, all new followers will be entered into a drawing for a free
workshop or small piece of artwork. On the blog, the artists will offer art techniques
to the organization’s followers.
A brochure explaining all that Starving Artists has to offer should be designed. The
brochures can be distributed at the gallery, community events, schools, churches,
clubs, businesses, and on the website. The information will include the types of art
that are available for purchase; a list of the workshops that are held; special events
that the organization conducts; an announcement about rental space for private
events; and a link to the website and social media sites.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 14
The Executive Director, a member of the Board of Directors, or an active volunteer
should ask to speak to clubs or other community organizations to convey the message
that Starving Artists is an exciting place for people of all ages to come. Pictures of
the artwork on display at the gallery should be shared with the groups.
A monthly newsletter should be sent by e-mail to all supporters of the organization.
The newsletter will also be posted on the website.
The community arts festival should involve the entire community and promote the
organization.
Field trips by schools should be encouraged to promote the visual arts to youth.
A traveling exhibit should be organized to further promote the organization and its
artists.
Corporate sponsors should be announced at a rebranding event or gala to benefit
Starving Artists.
Applications for visual arts grants should be submitted.
Gallery volunteers will be available at all times to promote the sale of the artwork of
exhibiting artists. The volunteers must express excitement for the arts and be
knowledgeable of all products offered for sale.
Due to the lack of funds of Starving Artists, direct marketing postal mailings to
community households or paid advertisements should not be considered at this time. In an effort
to secure corporate sponsors, a letter and brochure will be mailed to local and regional
businesses. The promotional strategies listed above should increase membership and create an
excitement throughout the community and beyond.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 15
Supply Chain Strategies
To ensure that artwork sold through the gallery is received by customers in the best and
most efficient ways possible, Starving Artists should utilize supply chain management and
integration processes to obtain quality product devices to secure the artwork, such as packing
paper, boxes, packing tubes, and frames. This will ensure safe transportation of the artwork
during the customer’s commute and create a value-added service by extending the offerings of
the gallery. Due to limited funding, Starving Artists can pursue partnerships with local and
franchised material suppliers to request donated or discounted products as a tax savings to be
claimed as a charitable donation due to their non-profit tax-exempt status. These partnerships
will also provide network opportunities to increase membership potential throughout the
community (Lamb, Hair, and McDaniel 230-232).
Starving Artists should also pursue donated or discounted services for a foil logo sticker
to affix to all packing products, frames, and artwork leaving the gallery and again, encourage
donation of services to a non-profit organization with tax-exempt status to be claimed as a
charitable donation. In addition to tax savings, vendors that donate free supplies and services
will receive recognition on the gallery wall as a charitable contributor to the organization.
Implementing and Controlling the Marketing Plan
Action Plans
Generally, the first step in making a marketing plan happen is creating an environment
for strong employee commitment. Fortunately for Starving Artists, the director and part-time
staff are passionate and dedicated to creating a self-sufficient, thriving gallery. Overviews of the
marketing plan will be available to all employees as the implementation timeline demonstrates
the need for quick, cohesive, and fluid movements during initial phases in order to stay on track.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 16
Priorities will be based on the promotional strategies with emphasis on the creation of
social media sites, procuring a detailed contact list for businesses within the community, and a
concentrated effort on an immediate and substantial increase in the pool of volunteers.
Manpower will be a primary asset in implementing the marketing plan.
Responsibility
The Board of Directors will need to approve the marketing plan. The Executive Director
will then be responsible for implementing each aspect of the plan. The three part-time gallery
attendants will assist the Executive Director and provide business development support. The
new volunteers will assume the duties of the part-time gallery attendants.
Timeline
By the end of January 2015, Starving Artists will have all their social media sites
available for public viewing to include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vine, and blog, along with
their own website. By January 16, 2015, Starving Artists will have their brochure completed,
and by February 13, 2015, distributed to community organizations throughout the city. A letter
and a brochure will be sent to local and regional businesses by February 13, 2015, to secure
corporate sponsors. The Executive Director will follow with a telephone call to each business by
the end of February. During the months of January-March, Starving Artists will find five
volunteers eager to promote the gallery and what it has to offer. Five additional volunteers will
be added every three months until December (e.g., five volunteers for April-June, five more for
July-September, and five more for October-December). Planning for the rebranding gala will
begin on February 2, 2015. The gala will take place on May 23, 2015. Planning for the traveling
exhibit will begin March 2, 2015, and the traveling exhibit will take place from July 11-August
15, 2015. Beginning on June 1, 2015, Starving Artists will begin to organize the annual
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 17
community arts festival, which will take place on October 3, 2015. Public speaking events for
groups, clubs, or other community organizations will occur on multiple dates throughout the year
in various locations, beginning in January 2015.
Advertising for each event will begin approximately three months prior to the event. The
events will be advertised on the organization’s website and social media outlets, the monthly
newsletter, the local radio station, the Community Calendar in the local newspaper, fliers posted
in local businesses, and word-of-mouth advertising. The local television station will be
approached about the possibility of promoting the events on the local news. A breakdown of the
timeline is presented in the table below.

Budget
Starving Artists’ current financial status is relatively poor as it is difficult for the
organization to cover its expenses each month. The current budget for the fiscal year is allocated
to the salaries of the director and three attendants, with the remaining donations reserved for
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 18
gallery utility and maintenance expenses, with limited room for advertising. Successful
implementation of the marketing plan will result in improved financial status, allowing for more
funds to be dedicated to advertising and promotions, as well as hosting additional community
events in future years. Potential income from successful implementation and control of the
marketing plan are summarized in the table below. The table does not represent a collective total
of membership revenue potential, but the maximum that could be collected from each level of
membership if no members joined at any other level.

$1000 * 100

In addition to receiving funding from increased membership potential, current members
may elect to upgrade their membership level to receive perks available through new marketing
programs, adding further to revenues. Effective implementation of the marketing plan will also
result in an additional $10,000 in annual personal donations and $50,000 in annual corporate
donations. Up to twelve percent of annual donation funding can be used to increase advertising
and host additional community events to draw awareness and increase memberships and
donations, which will also add to future revenues. This could allow for future consideration of
additional promotional strategies unable to be used due to funding, such as direct marketing
postal mailings to all households in the community and paid advertisements. While these
promotional strategies are not advised at this time, they may be reconsidered in the future when
the financial outlook has improved.
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 19
Measurement and Control
At Starving Artists, progress will be measured during the year by using key performance
indicators. Financial figures will be continually monitored. Profits and revenue generated will
be measured, along with the amount of donations and contributions, both private and corporate.
Success will also be measured according to the increases in membership. In addition, surveys
will be given to all stakeholders during the course of the year to measure the successes of the
organization and ways to improve. In order to continually improve the experience of their
customers, the Executive Director will review all feedback from surveys and social media.
The page views will be monitored on the website and blog, along with the number of
followers on Twitter, Instagram, and Vine, and the number of likes and friends on the Facebook
page. The number of volunteers that are working on-site will be measured. Starving Artists will
also monitor the completed membership/attendance forms they receive during the course of the
year. These forms will contain information that indicates:
The number of memberships obtained
The number of people attending workshops or classes
The number of people attending the annual gala and traveling exhibits
After establishing the marketing objectives and performance standards at the end of the
first calendar year, ending December 31, 2015, results will be compared with existing standards.
The following will be assessed:
The number of volunteers and employees and whether either should be increased,
decreased, or kept the same for the next calendar year
Davis, Gold, Knight, and Myers 20
The number of social events, including exhibitions, the gala, and the arts festival, and
whether the events should be increased, decreased, or kept the same for the next
calendar year
The amount that is being charged for memberships and whether the price of
memberships should be increased, decreased, or kept the same during the next
calendar year
The Board of Directors will meet at the end of each quarter to evaluate how Starving Artists is
progressing. An annual report will be compiled and presented to the Board of Directors to
document yearly progress made by the organization.
Summary
By implementing this marketing plan, Starving Artists should realize a five percent
increase in membership and increased revenue in 2015, while supporting and inspiring the local
artists and the community. The organization will become financially stable and continue to
grow. Starving Artists will reveal to the diverse community its unlimited potential in the visual
arts.
