Education & Culture

Brand, web and audience growth for schools, colleges, museums and cultural organizations.

Schools, colleges, museums, arts organizations and cultural institutions serve many audiences at once: students and families, members and visitors, artists and donors. Helm Digital helps Maine education and cultural organizations reach each of them clearly and build support that lasts.

How we help education and cultural organizations

  • Websites for many audiences. Clear navigation, easy-to-update program and event listings, and paths for every visitor. See web design.
  • Brand and publications. Identity, annual reports and materials that reflect your mission. See branding.
  • CRM and membership systems. One view of students, families, members and donors. See CRM and integrations.
  • Email and engagement. Newsletters, enrollment and membership journeys, and event promotion. See email marketing.
  • Digital marketing. SEO, advertising and social media that grow attendance, enrollment and giving. See digital marketing.

Experience in education and the arts

We led a CRM evaluation and rollout for The Telling Room, Portland's youth writing center, and rebuilt the Leeway Foundation's website to showcase the artists it funds. Nonprofit organizations can also see our nonprofit marketing work.

Running a campus store or museum shop?

Online stores for colleges, museums and cultural organizations are built by our e-commerce specialty team at First Pier.
