3 Tweaks to Get Your Fundraising Back on Track
In fundraising, it means letting the donor actually tell us she won’t be making a gift this year. If you don’t have that kind of clarity, your job is to get it.
- Develop a focused list of changes your nonprofit is focusing on.
- Create three or four meaningful ways for the donor to be involved in that change.
- Keep inviting the donor until she tells you she isn’t going to participate this time.
