She is the founder and president of Heinrich Communications, and wrote a book called "Hands-On Social Marketing: A Step-by-Step Guide." 

Her blog Spare Change has a great post "Olympic Heart of Gold" on what the nonprofit Right to Play did correctly to inspire Olympic speed skater Joey Cheek to donate all of his $40,000 in medal winnings to the organization and bring public attention to its mission? See http://www.social-marketing.com/blog/2006/02/olympic-heart-of-gold.html for the marketing answer.  It includes having the right role model, picking the right venue for your target audience and providing compelling programs.
