Even organizations doing good face competition
Your potential advocates, supporters and stakeholders are bombarded with messages constantly. If you can't cut through that clutter, you'll struggle to engage them. That's bad news for your mission. It could mean:
Fewer resources.
Difficulty recruiting volunteers and advocates.
A stagnating base of financial support.
We can help.
Your mission matters. So does your marketing.
clear messaging
A narrative framework clarifies your message and invites people to to take action.
Engaging Creative
Websites, email, annual reports, marketing collateral and other material connects you with your audience.
Strategic Thinking
We begin with the end — identifying your goal and developing a plan based on best practices.
Experience + proven strategies
Before founding Flying Car Communications in 2013, founder Mark Tosczak had worked as journalist, a think tank communications director and a PR firm vice president. In those roles, he worked with universities, local and global nonprofits, government agencies and other mission-driven organizations.
Through Flying Car Communications, he’s continued to do the same, helping for-profit and nonprofit clients communicate better. He’s taught marketing and communications at Elon University and he’s been a board member and officer for several nonprofits.
Every project or campaign starts with a conversation.
How it works
We collaborate with you to develop effective messaging and marketing. Getting started is simple.
1.

We’re bombarded with messages every day. Flying Car uses the power of story to break through that noise. Narrative is an attention-grabbing strategy as old as civilization. And it’s still as powerful as ever.
2.
Implement smart, creative tactics
We’ll work with you to attract, engage and motivate the audiences that matter most to your mission. Branding, email, content and digital marketing, when implemented consistently, work.
3.
Elevate your impact
Stronger marketing means you can reach and influence more people — growing your impact and achieving your mission.

Better marketing means more impact
From nonprofits to universities to for-profit businesses animated by purpose, every mission-driven organization depends on others to maximize its impact. Reaching, engaging with and motivating people are critical to putting that mission into action.
Sometimes you’re asking for money. Sometimes you need advocates. Sometimes you simply want to engage with those you’re serving. All of this requires marketing.
But many mission-driven organizations underinvest in marketing and communications. They think of it as an overhead cost, instead of an investment in their core mission.
At Flying Car, we believe that mission-driven organizations, from small community charities to global NGOs, are critical for a better future. And often that requires better marketing.
Flying Car has helped scores of organizations, big and small. A small start-up organization has different needs than a well-established institution with secure funding. But whatever stage an organization is at, Flying Car can help them be more effective.
