Most nonprofit development departments don’t need more ideas. They need more consistent execution…

 

And I should even clarify that often departments need to be ALLOWED to do more consistent execution. That means they need to be empowered to STOP transactional activities.

 

Consistent execution of fundraising activities that are:

🌟Practical

🌟Relational

🌟Strategic

🌟Business-minded

🌟Investment-level

 

"But, Sherry, there are so many ideas FLYING at us every day!" 

 

Do me a favor and don’t attend the 2026 Trends Webinars that are going to be in your inbox over the next 30 days. Don’t get on the new bandwagon or spend time on the next flashy thing.

 

Consistent execution of these things will revolutionize your organization’s revenue.

 

Really. It’s that simple.

 

The last thing I’ll say is this: Nonprofit CEOs need to make sure they’ve invested in training their staff to lead investment-level conversations. I find that less than 10% of fundraisers actually know how to do this. But, when they learn how to lead in this area you’ll see the money that’s been sitting on the table for years.

 

If you want help with this, just apply here.
