Question: What’s the difference between raising to your squeak-by-budget vs. raising the dollars your organization truly needs? (By needs, I mean programs + infrastructure + ops + reserve.)

 

Answer: HOPING vs. EQUIPPING

 

Too many orgs talk about their long term plans and goals and what gen-ops dollars it would take to get there.  

 

But they struggle to take the steps to make this a reality - never quite creating the revenue-generating engine needed to scale gen-ops dollars. This looks like budgeting based only on what’s committed or just 5-10% more than last year.

 

👉They get caught in the cycle of HOPING one day it will just click with the team and the board will finally open up their networks. But that never happens.

 

So what about the other side? What does EQUIPPING the entire team to fully fund your organization’s true financial need each year?

📌Helping CEOs reimagine their overall approach, model and, strategy for revenue generation that yields your orgs actual financial need.

📌SECOND, turning staff into high-ROI revenue generators - aligning every fundraising hour with with new principles that 2X - 10X donation sizes.

📌THIRD, empowering board members to connect their networks - fundraising in a way that feels comfortable and yields larger gifts.

 

👉You see, people who are ready to EQUIP their teams recognize the importance of action and they take the necessary steps, even if it's hard and seems to push against the engrained ways of the nonprofit sector.

 

The key is to start doing something different. Hope is not a strategy or plan.

 

If you've been stuck in 'HOPING' mode, this is the moment for 'EQUIPPING'.
