The hit show “The Chosen” raised $10 million through crowdfunding for its first season alone, and topped the box office charts when tickets went on sale for its Christmas special in theaters.
As nonprofit leaders (and professors), Kent and his HDI colleague Jamie Goodwin wanted to know what drives Dallas’ marketing philosophy, whether it’s something other nonprofits could emulate (and what themes they plan to explore in Season 3).
Other highlights from this episode:
- The keys to good ethical storytelling
