Here's what I'm not . . .

 

🛑 I am not an accountant.
But, I can tell you when your budget is keeping you from growing and blocking your development team from reaching their goal.

 

🛑 I am not a program person.
But, I can tell when donors are confused by what you do and the questions they have that keep them from giving to you.

 

🛑 I am not a graphic designer.
But, I can tell you why your materials aren’t supporting a major-gift donor experience or yielding 5- and 6- figure gifts.

 

🛑 I’m not a marketer.
But, I can tell you when your outreach and cultivation is mis-aligned per donor segment and is keeping major donors from giving a larger gift.

 

Steady, unrestricted revenue for gen-operating expenses gets solved at the business level. Not always the traditional fundraising level.

 

Fix the root of the issue first. These are the things that BLOCK donors from even understanding you NEED their money. Then you can work on attracting large donors to your individual giving program.
