A few weeks ago, I was in Atlanta with a client as it publicly announced its campaign. It was very exciting — this client has been incredible to partner with, adding much to the campaign as well as being very disciplined about campaign strategy.
The folks we worked with announced commitments that already were 50 percent more than their original goal! This was because their team of staff and volunteers worked very hard, navigated unexpected challenges and stayed the course.
