This month's NEW article is called “Pausing The Gala And Taking A More Relational Approach To Fundraising”. 

"With soaring expenses and limited staff time already, it’s hard to justify the gala’s return on investment. Even if the event breaks even or shows a slight profit, there was—without a doubt—money that was left on the table from the donors attending. Why? Because galas, golf tournaments, appeals and campaigns are highly transactional. These events don’t reach the deep potential of the relational side of fundraising." - Sherry Quam Taylor

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.
