Did we mention we love our job? let’s dabble gives us the opportunity to help show others what you do best.

If a picture is worth a 1,000 words, how much is video worth? In the age of new media, it can be priceless. See how we've helped our clients leverage the power of web video.

ymca thumbnail The YMCA’s annual Strong Kids Campaign raises over $400,000 toward their annual budget for the Rockford, Illinois locations. 300-400 fundraisers were trained prior to making their face-to-face pledge requests through five 3:00 minute web videos delivered daily by email: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

We achieved EXCELLENT outcomes and our project was so much better than we could have imagined because of the vision of let's dabble. Our volunteers still talk about how wonderful the message was in each video and how the passion of the Y was felt in the videos!!!! To be able to share what we wanted and then actually get what we asked for was wonderful!

We look forward to future projects and the insight you have in this area is invaluable to us! I have already recommended let's dabble to many."

Cabrini Green Legal Aid . video tutorials

CGLA Office Move ThumbnailAfter 35 years serving the Chicago community, CGLA documented their new office move for those donors/volunteers/staff that were unable to attend the grand opening. CGLA filmed much of the event themselves after training with our video tutorial program.

It was a pleasure working with let's dabble, they made the process fun and easy! The video tutorials were a huge help and gave step-by-step information that made each stage in the process clear and straightforward. The idea of incorporating web videos into our website/e-mail marketing seemed like a daunting task, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out how easy it can be.

We received lots of positive feedback on our videos and have since incorporated the videos into our other social media networks (Facebook, YouTube, etc)."

Patrick for Illinois . fundraising

agape global outreach thumbnailPatrick Keenan-Devlin ran to become Illinois' 18th District state representative in 2010. As part of the campaign's marketing strategy, a short "video introduction" to Patrick was created to spread his message and solicit contributions. The campaign succeeded in raising over $100,000 in contributions, $30,000 more than the next candidate in the field, but ultimately lost the race by less than 400 votes.

let's dabble is a great company to work with. They made us a highly creative and effective video, and happily embraced our limited time and resources.

let's dabble is a star. More importantly, they can make you one."

Agape Global Outreach . video grant proposal | video tutorials

agape global outreach thumbnailAgape provides free medical services thanks to financial partnerships with local businesses like All State Insurance. To validate results and secure future funding, Agape documented their involvement in Hopefest 2008.

I was looking for an easy way to tell the story of how Agape Global Outreach serves our various communities. The best way was to let participants tell their own stories in their own words through video. With the let's dabble video tutorials, we were able to capture two of our biggest and best events, and the videos are ready to be uploaded to our website.

let's dabble made the process of capturing the videos too easy and our funders were able to see how their funds were spent through the videos we captured. We have already recommended let's dabble to our friends."

Character Build . fundraising | video grant proposal

character build thumbnailBy supplementing a grant proposal with 3 short videos, Character Build was able to visually demonstrate the program they plan to restructure and reopen. let’s dabble also created a blog to host the videos, accept donations and build testimony.

Brad is simply the best at what he does and has the most easy going personality to work with, hands down, bar none! Our time together was very comfortable and enjoyable, a very pleasurable experience all around.

Without question I would recommend let's dabble to anyone seeking to expand their business in a very cost effective and exciting way.  Brad has the type of personality that makes one feel as though they have known him all their lives.  He has the ability to make you comfortable while providing expert information about branding your business and getting it out where it needs to be."

Brad and I connected based on a common interest in giving back and helping nonprofits succeed. He is incredibly creative, focused, professional, unselfish and has a huge heart. In less than a year, we have traveled to New England, Jamaica, spent time in the Midwest and Brad has helped numerous organizations to advance their causes. let's dabble will provide successful, high value solutions for everyone looking to spread their word and do good for others!"

Chang's Martial Arts Academy . website promo | event coverage

Chang's Martial Arts THumbnailA storefront television looped videos of masters and students showcasing their skills in Tae Kwon Do, Kali & Jujitsu. The videos were later added to the organization's swebsite.

I like the personal attention given to detail. I had an idea, but didn’t exactly know how to put it in writing or video and let's dabble was able to bring my idea to life.

I would definitely recommend let's dabble to others simply because they are passionate about what they do, and I like that, because I'm passionate about Martial Arts."
