Engage Conference Spotlight: 6 Tips to Take Bios From Boring to Brilliant

On April 10, FundRaising Success is hosting its second annual Engage Conference. Engage is the only case-study-focused fundraising conference focusing on the keys to success from organizations that have successfully made the leap from just-getting-by nonprofits to powerhouse organizations. Leading up to Engage, we will be highlighting content from the participating organizations and speakers that we've published over the years.

Fundraising is all about building relationships. You hear it all the time. And before you can start a relationship with anyone, you have to properly introduce yourself.

In this day and age, that first introduction between donor and nonprofit organization often comes online. Yet, so many nonprofit websites have subpar biographies of the people who work toward the mission — if they even have staff bios at all.

To rectify that, strategist and trainer Nancy Schwartz of Getting Attention! provided "6 Tips to Take Bios From Boring to Brilliant" in the December 2013 issue of FundRaising Success.

Schwartz will facilitate the roundtables on melding marketing, branding and fundraising with City Harvest's Heather Wallace.
