Nonprofit Leaders: Can You Attract Donors on LinkedIn?

Nonprofit GrowthDevelopment
Written By Sherry Quam Taylor

I talk to dozens of leaders every month and nobody seems to know how to use LinkedIn to attract donors. And perhaps the even bigger problem?

 

Their teams are using LinkedIn to sell tickets, gather raffle items, and recruit 5K participants. That’s for your grassroots donors on Facebook…not LinkedIn.

 

LinkedIn is your professional network filled with the potential for mid- and major-level donor relationships - individuals, family foundations, and corporations. It's the top of the donor pyramid work.

 

And how do we start and build relationships with mid- and major-donors at the top of the pyramid?

🔗Through human interactions.

🔗Through thought leadership.

🔗Through brand visibility.

🔗Through consistent trust building. 

Not through transactions.  

 

Show donors WHY they should give to your mission and WHY you are the experts they should give their money to. 

And do this every day. 

 

My clients who do? Are attracting five-, six-, and seven-figure gifts on LinkedIn.
