How We Work
Our account management process follows a tightly organized structure to ensure 100%
client satisfaction.
Primary point of contact: Kristina will serve as the communication line between Family
Reach Foundation and 4 Corners. If Kristina is for some reason unavailable, we encourage
the client to contact other members based on the relevancy of their title to the client
question
Our agency will ensure the parallel presence between agency and client strategy. We have
an open line of communication within the agency as well as with the client.
We practice transparency and the client will see the drafting stages of all material in
progress. We will make sure the client is in agreement with any and all parts of our plan.
All decisions are discussed with the client prior to implementation and execution. If the
client notices any discrepancies we will work with them to develop a more agreeable plan
of action. We commit to working out all of the kinks to assure client success and
satisfaction.
Each member of 4 Corners brings a variety of experience and expertise to the table, and
we strive to bring out individual strengths.

Social Media and Nonprofits
Social media has become a huge industry trend in promotional
advertising. Almost every company or public figure is involved in social
media no matter the brand, demographic, or location.
It is a staple public relations tool that needs to be tailored to fit specific
needs of the client.
It gives nonprofit organizations a gateway to potential partners and clients
by publicizing stories and events that are relative to the organizations
niche.
Free advertising
Given the nature of Family Reach Foundation’s work, social media for the
organization must be closely monitored for breaches in confidentiality.
Our agency’s approach to social media for nonprofits is to be as engaged
as legally and ethically allowed. We want to raise awareness via social
media campaigns and releases while staying in line with the wishes of
family members, clients, and partners.

Measurement
Our agency uses the mnemonic SMART criteria. SMART
stands for specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-
bound. We then evaluate and reevaluate.
We analyze and evaluate our client’s successes vs.
competitors based on five ROI metrics; return on engagement,
return on participation, return on involvement, return on
attention, and return on trust.
We always work at 110%, and always strive to exceed our
initial goal.
