Abstract: | This paper examines the market orientation construct within the context of non-profit sector. The main of the paper is to investigate the extent to which the type of revenue strategy is related to the organisations market orientation, towards donors and/or users. The paper reports findings from a quantitative study of a representative sample of Portuguese non-profit organisations (NPOs) complemented by qualitative research methods. The results from the study indicate that Portuguese NGOs favour a market orientation towards users/beneficiaries, revealing a less proactive behaviour in relation to their donors. |
