Nonprofits often struggle to hire staff with specialized expertise due to limited funding.
That doesn’t have to be you.
The Fractional Communications Officer for Social Benefit Nonprofits.
Hi, I’m Beth, and I’ve been working with social benefit nonprofits and human-centered companies for over 15 years.
There is so much I love about working with impact driven people, and with the right >strategy and leadership, you can be a go-to provider in your area, even if you’re small. Imagine:
- Gaining a high-achieving senior leader for a fraction of the cost of a full time employee
- Agency-wide clarity: common messaging, Roadmaps, and ongoing reporting for what is working and not
- A well-run and effective comms & marketing team, all moving in the same direction
- An Executive Director who can fully focus on guiding the org
Let me help you make the most of their grant and donor dollars, and bring a greater impact for your mission.

Is it time to bring in an expert?
You lack visibility and engagement in your community

“Sometimes marketing feels daunting. We can start chasing the next best solution without direction or certainty. This is how I approached marketing for years. Beth Alford stepped in and created not just direction but leveraged my business in all sorts of ways that I had not imagined. Most importantly, they took the time to really get me, what we stood for and helped us clarify our messaging. We have reached more customers, more new employees and more people that engage with us online than ever before. I have so much gratitude in my heart for what this team has done for my business.”
