ERIC LARSON
Fractional Marketing and Communications Director

Nonprofit work has always brought me immense satisfaction and gratitude.

I am eager to work with nonprofit organizations that need anything from “just the basics” in their communications function to more elaborate branding and marketing projects.

- I can serve as your fractional marketing director/manager to create strategy and/or simply “get stuff done” as you search for your full-time solution.  

What I Can Quickly Bring to Your Organization:

- Over 30 years of marketing and communications experience for a wide range of organization types and sizes, including nonprofits, academia, municipalities, and government.  

- A background in journalism and other modes of storytelling (author of two novels) to highlight what makes an organization’s mission special: press releases, blogs, videos, social media, and websites.

- Comfortable with social media, multimedia, web, and video production; I work with ad agencies, graphic designers, and other creative vendors to get your projects done on time, within-budget and to specification.

- Able to leverage AI tools where it makes sense, always prioritizing authenticity of your organization’s voice.

- Experienced in the rebranding of nonprofit organizations and programs; curriculum design; and grant writing.

- “I promise to collaborate effectively with your nonprofit’s staff, leadership, and clients to expand impact!”

I can work remotely with any organization in the country OR hybrid with organizations in North Carolina. Please reach out to schedule a conversation through this website’s contact form or just email or call me directly:
