The Shift that Changes your Nonprofit's Financial Sustainability

Nonprofit GrowthDevelopment
Written By Sherry Quam Taylor

Anyone can write an email, host an event, or design a fundraising campaign...

[OK, not anyone, but you get my point.]

But learning how to take the time to know your donor so well that a simple lunch results in a 5- or 6-figure gift?

And you do that every year? And then do that with half your donors?

That’s the shift that changes your organization’s financial sustainability. That's the shift that gets you off of the fundraising spin-cycle of deadlines.

That's the exact email I got from my client recently who has learned how to do this...

Here's what I know. Nonprofit fundraising is weird. 

Yes, I said weird.

Most of us have had some odd winding path into this field. Too often, that means your development team hasn't had major-gifts training. They're great at writing appeals, tracking grants, and planning events. But, when it comes to leading a donor through an investment-level conversation as described above? That's another story.

But, that story often is leaving 7-figures of revenue on the table.

Your mission is too important for that. The methodology I teach works for first-time fundraisers and 30-year veterans in the industry. I'm proud to say that all get significant results.

What are you waiting for?

Sherry Quam Taylor works with growth-minded Nonprofit CEOs who are scaling their organizations but still need larger amounts of general operating support to truly grow. She breaks their teams free from the limitations of transactional fundraising and helps them reimagine their entire approach to revenue generation.

The high-performing leaders Sherry works with want to find and secure more unrestricted revenue from investment-level donors. They simply need more funding to do what’s in their Strategic Plan. To achieve this, she transforms their teams and boards into high-ROI revenue generators - revealing how they can align every hour they spend fundraising with new principles that double and triple donation sizes.

As a result of learning her methodology, Sherry’s clients regularly add 7-figures of gen-ops revenue to their bottom line by learning how to attract investment-level donors that WANT to fund their work. But the biggest transformation they experience is knowing the exact strategy, path, and team that will propel them to generate the 2-10X dollars their strategic plans require.

Sherry attributes the success of her business to her passion for modeling radical confidence to the future CEOs in her house - her two teenage daughters.
