Teach to Reach

Case Study

Teach to Reach

How can a chinuch organization acquaint educators around the country and beyond with its life-changing resources? A series of campaigns centered around building legitimacy and raising awareness enabled Teach to Reach to capture hundreds of new leads, introduce their materials into classrooms around the country, and achieve top-of-mind recognition in the world of Jewish education.

Why did you
choose 14 Minds?

“We approached Tzivia and her team because we didn’t feel that the previous company was creative enough or put themselves out there to fit our needs,”

Challenges

  • While Teach to Reach has a powerful mission and diverse offerings, it did not always implement this mission in a cohesive and streamlined fashion.

  • The organization’s marketing was sporadic and inconsistent. 

  • Some educators might dismiss the mission of instilling a deeper connection to Judaism as irrelevant and unnecessary. 

  • Content had to be extremely user-friendly since the target audience has many demands on their time, scarce resources, and inadequate remuneration; they have no time or energy for anything “extra.”

  • It is difficult to make an evidence-based argument about the programs’ importance and urgency since impact on students is long-term and unquantifiable.

Why did you choose 14Minds?​

“I chose to work with 14Minds because I felt we had an offering that was very beneficial to the world—but we were working hand to mouth, trying to reach a few people here and there. I wanted to reach our audience on a much larger scale.


“14Minds took our disjointed marketing ideas, refined them, and turned them into a concrete plan. Since we started working with 14Minds this year, we have multiplied our growth tenfold. It has been very exciting; I didn’t expect to reach this many people so quickly.”
