Happy National Coffee Day to you! I am posting with my Sylvester coffee mug by my side.

I have often mentioned that coffee is a magic brew for a cup of conversation. I recommend having a coffee budget in many of my audience development plans. And when you are having coffee and doing your work at a coffee shop, you will want to keep your eyes and ears open for ways to meet new and interesting people. I have found a grant writer, sponsors, collaborators, new clients, and of course new audience members this way. Oh those magic beans!

To celebrate, I found this article about how you can get a free cup or coffee or a way to use your coffee for good. Even more outlets are mentioned here!

I hope you have a lovely coffee holiday, and be sure to put into your plan a coffee budget for future magic!

Cheers to happy and loyal audiences,

“Working with Shoshana was the next right step for our 76 year old community chorus. She directed the organization to be patron centered and to view all patron interactions from their perspective. We experienced a 71% increase in audiences last season. That’s because we have a new viewpoint: from the outside in, instead of the inside out. It’s a continuous process, but we have experienced exciting results! Thanks Shoshana!” —Carol Olson, Executive Director of VOCI (Voices of Canton, Inc.)
