Do you ever wish your mission or cause could sell itself?

Seems like it should, right?

Conversations are quick and easy and should go something like this . . .

➡️ You have an amazing mission
➡️ People read your newsletter and are immediately inspired
➡️ Tears are in their eyes when you tell the stories of those you serve
➡️ And then, boom! new donor!
➡️ And even better - it’s a giant check!

I wish.

Reality is, donors . . .

❓Don’t always understand what you do...
❓Don’t know the depth of the problem you’re solving...
❓Don’t know that you need more money…really, they don’t know you NEED MORE MONEY.

But, most importantly, they need to be led. They need to be asked. And, your fundraising team has way more control over this than you think….that is if they know how to solicit. Not through events or appeals. One-on-one solicitations.

Your mission doesn’t sell itself, especially when you’re trying to attract investment-level donors and secure large general-operating gifts.

If you’re assuming your donors ARE giving their best gifts AND you’re NOT asking . . . you’re leaving money on the table.

Whenever you’re ready, here are THREE things you can do next:

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.
