New Podcast: How Consistent Pipeline Work Can Add Millions to Your Bottom Line
According to Greg Warner’s MarketSmart 2020 Major Gift Benchmark study, 81% of donors take 6-24 months for prospect identification.
Building a pipeline is frustrating for most fundraisers. It requires time and consistent effort to find donors.
However, your patience is definitely worth it if you’re looking to scale by the millions.
Tune in to The Business Behind Fundraising — How Consistent Pipeline Work Can Add Millions to Your Bottom Line with Sherry Quam Taylor.
What You Will Discover:
✔️Get to know your donor. Too often, fundraisers are frustrated by unreplied emails or the feeling of chasing donors. You won’t have to do as much of this if you slow down the process early on. Is your donor aligned with your values and vision? Do they want that donor experience from you? It's crucial to have the right people in your pipeline.
✔️ Consistency is key. There is no quick fix to building your pipeline. You have to consistently meet people, qualify them and have investment-level conversations that attract donors who want to give unrestricted revenue.
✔️ Fundraising is more than just asking for money. It's connecting and educating others. Does the donor care about the problem you're trying to solve? Is the relationship a win/win for both parties?
✔️ Delegate tasks to your board. Encourage them to design metrics that move you forward to a positive revenue trajectory. It’s their duty to consistently arrange introductions and create opportunities for you to meet mission-aligned donors and connectors.
