“Wood Street Communications designed the collateral pieces for our annual gala. We have received an overwhelmingly positive response from our constituents regarding the quality of the design. By using Wood Street we were able to get a beautiful new suite of materials and saved hundreds of dollars on design costs.”
— Jamie Rhoades, Director of Development for ACHIEVA
“We haven’t used the infographics yet, but are looking forward to using them on our social media this season. This saved us a lot of time and energy. By creating these infographics Wood Street Communications allowed us to clearly and succinctly describe our mission in one picture.”

“Working with Wood Street Communications expanded our understanding of our social media audience. We were able to capitalize by reaching out on Twitter, LinkedIn and Youtube to share information and our story. Wood Street Communications assisted us in setting up an online donation platform on both our website and Facebook, which we were then able to cross promote across all our social media channels. I would definitely recommend Wood Street Communications if you need guidance or an introduction to social media as it pertains to your business.”
— Jason Fait, Penn Township Ambulance Association
“We absolutely benefited from this initiative. As a small non-profit shop, we aren’t often afforded the opportunity to produce high-caliber materials such as this video. We have used this piece, and will continue to use this piece, on our social sites and email blasts. We also now have this in our arsenal of items for things such as grant applications. So, really, the value of this is immeasurable!”

“It was great to have an outside person really look at all our social media efforts and tell us that we were doing many things right and suggest some areas that we can tweak. As a nonprofit with one employee we are really busy and don’t have time to do the strategy thinking that [the student] was able to do for us.”

“Previously we had paid over $5,000 for the same service. Using Wood Street Communications, we were able to get the same level of product and that money that would have gone into creating the videos is now going back to support our programs so that we can help more people in the Pittsburgh community.”

“Our small nonprofit was looking for marketing ideas for a new service we were rolling out. We needed top-level ideas without the high price tag. The students researched our services, identified our target demographic, and provided ideas we could implement within our very limited budget. We put their ideas into the marketplace within 10 months. The plan made a measurable impact and helped us launch a really successful program.”

“The Point Park team hit a home run with their recommendations on branding for the Pine Community Center. Their research and analysis was so helpful, especially regarding ways to reach one of our toughest target audiences — teens. I also really liked the idea of using social media as a way to market the Center. We will be implementing this in our strategic plan.”
— Joni Patsko, Pine Community Center
“Point Park University students developed and implemented a comprehensive marketing plan for the International Association of Business Communicators Heritage Region annual conference. They exuded professionalism and excelled in the execution of the plan both in print and online. (This included) designing the conference theme to creating the conference brochure, from developing the website to posting social media. Their creativity and quality of work were exceptional. I highly recommend these students to help organizations further their missions.
