New Podcast: Case Study with Suzy Myers Jackson — Diversifying Revenue Beyond a Gala through Relationship Building

Nonprofit GrowthDevelopmentCase Study
Written By Sherry Quam Taylor

Suzy Myers Jackson didn’t expect to have a career in fundraising, but when the opportunity to lead an organization that aligned with her passion for theatre presented itself, she hit the ground running. After 17 years at Opening Act New York, Suzy became the Executive Director of SparkYouth NYC. Now, she’s bringing a refreshing style of tried and true fundraising opportunities to expand opportunities for young people in New York City.

In this podcast Case Study you’ll hear:

✔️ We all learn from experience, but establishing a process to evaluate and adapt to those experiences can make all the difference for your organization

✔️ Skills you have developed prior to becoming a fundraiser will always come in handy, like theatre!

✔️ Prioritizing relationship building leading up to the event makes a tremendous impact on how successful the event is for your organization

✔️ Relationships held by members of your Board of Directors can bring new energy to your events and lead to future connections

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.
