Four Million Suns

Welcome to FourMillionSuns.com! I’m thrilled to have you here.

Four Million Suns is a marketing agency dedicated exclusively to nonprofits that officially launched in 2023.

The journey began in 2020.

I was working at a marketing agency, and felt a need to infuse greater purpose into my career. I was learning a lot in my role and wanted to find a way to use the knowledge I was gaining for good. dedicated team backed by the agency that would provide pro-bono marketing services to nonprofits.

I landed on one idea: pro-bono marketing services for nonprofits. It was the perfect way to support organizations and causes I cared about while using skills I already had.

But… I knew I needed help. Work was already demanding and to be pro-bono I would need backing. I decided to bring the idea to executive leadership at the agency. After working through potential pitfalls, they enthusiastically agreed to the proposal.

A new team was created and named “The Nonprofit Unit”. As the leader, I led 8 team members in acquiring our first client and launching a successful campaign, marking the beginning of an incredible journey.

Working with nonprofits presented a unique set of challenges. Whether it was getting board member buy-in, finding workarounds for advertising restrictions, or achieving multiple goals with one campaign, each hurdle demanded a creative and strategic solution. The Nonprofit Unit tackled them all.

Inspired by the work of the nonprofit clients and eager to continue solving for their unique challenges, I made a career jump to the nonprofit sector. By running the advertising program for the largest performing arts organization in Boston I gained valuable context to the diverse needs of nonprofits organizations.

Armed with a deeper understanding of the sector, I founded Four Million Suns LLC.

We exclusively serve nonprofits because we believe it’s the right thing to do. This belief allows approach marketing differently. Unlike other agencies, we’re not trying to balance revenue goals with doing the right thing; instead, we’re finding ways to make “the right thing” profitable.

We offer pricing models that put our clients first. Whether it’s helping our partners find funding or guaranteeing results, we work to make sure every dollar is used in the most effective way possible.

We’re just getting started, but we’ll keep you updated if you subscribe to our monthly newsletter below. Next step… scaling.

Take care,
Kate
