The Challenge

The foundation of all of Goodwill Industries’ charity work is donations. These donations are the life’s blood of Goodwill and the donations are then provided to the needing in communities across North America. Many of the donations that Goodwill receives are delivered to their local community Goodwill Stores. For the more than 40 Goodwill thrift stores/donation centers set up in Southern Arizona, Goodwill wanted to ensure that if they were the preferred charity and donors could find them easily and effectively. With many of their donors relying primarily on websites such as Google, Bing, and Yellow Pages to find stores near them, Goodwill needed to make sure that consumers who wanted to donate/shop could easily find them through all of their internet search options.

Goodwill became aware that their donor customers were having a hard time finding their Goodwill stores online. Goodwill’s primary objective was to improve this online presence and increase in-store for donation delivery and customer sales. Goodwill also wanted to ensure the accuracy of their listing information across the various search engines.
