Experienced Fundraisers

 

Are you feeling burnt out?

Remember when you got started with your cause? There was nothing quite like the adrenaline rush of helping donors connect their finances with their passions. It was like putting a plug into a socket: electric!

Has raising money lost that thrilling for you?

You’re in the nonprofit world because you believe in the incredible mission of your organization. So raising money to make that mission possible should be the most exciting thing in the world, shouldn’t it?

All too often, we try to fit our fundraising efforts into other peoples’ ideas of what we ought to do. Most of those programs make sense. But if they’re not a “fit” with your natural abilities, then they’ll just increase your stress and bog you down.

Let me help you get in touch with the original joy of asking and show you why fundraising is an extreme sport!

  • Your equipment is often simply a cup of coffee and your passion;
  • your uniform a suit and a bow tie;
  • your playing field a local cafe.

I can help you get re-energized about raising money for your nonprofit and to give you the fundraising skills to be more effect than ever.

I created the free Ask Without Fear! Radio Show with you in mind. Each interview is intended to help remind you of the privilege of our work while giving you helpful tools to do your job more effectively.

You can take advantage of my free articles and tools. While many of these are basic, it’s often the basics we need to be reminded of!

I also offer executive coaching and nonprofit seminars. We can work together to strategize your work and responsibilities to fit both your personal hard-wiring and your organization’s unique culture. I’ll even help you prune and steamline your existing fundraising activities to make them more productive.

I bet you already know what to do, you just might need a little kick to get you to do it. If so, Fundraising Kick might be perfect for you!

I can also train your volunteers and board members either remotely through the fundraising book Ask Without Fear!, the Ask Without Fear! DVD, or with custom onsite fundraising training.

Fundraising for nonprofits doesn’t need to be stressful or boring. Let me help you put the “fun” back into fundraising!
