Is your fundraising time fraught with worry? Or possibility? 

 

Here's what each looks like...

 

Energy focused on worrying:

-about budget cuts and federal funding what-ifs

-about why that one funder won’t email you back

-about how you’ll reach goal this year

-about what next year will look like?

 

Energy focused on possibility:

-of new relationships we can form in this moment

-of reconnecting with donors who we haven’t spoken to in a while

-of strengthening our visibility to attract new funders and donors

-of what next year will look like?

-of what BIG thing  you need right now and then asking for it?

 

Think I’m over-simplifying this? My clients who are focused on abundance and possibility right now are simply raising more.

 

Here's an example from just a few weeks ago…

Too many fundraisers are frozen by worry and what-ifs. 

 

Now is the time to take action and time-block your calendars for more relationship building. Now is the time to THINK BIG and ask for what you NEED.

 

You are planting seeds that will produce fruit when the time is right.

 

Last thing I'll say about this. I'm often asked about the ROI of my work with organizations. What if I told you one of the biggest ROIs is the ability to THINK BIG?

 

Nobody ever believes it when we start our work together. But, it's the KEY thing that's keeping you from scaling….understanding your true financial need (BIGGER BUDGET) and then asking for a donor to give their BEST GIFT to that need (BIGGER ASKS).

 

Often, it's that simple.
