I spent some time this morning with a group of new fundraisers. There were so many great questions raised about how fundraising works, and what to say to donors. With many of the questions I ended up coming back to the same point. It's not about technique, it's about vision. It's not about how great your proposal is, it's about vision. It's not about what perks you can give your donor, it's about vision. When a fundraiser puts the donor's needs first, takes the time to learn their priorities and shares a compelling vision about change the donor cares about, that's when transformational gifts are made! Build the vision and everything else will follow. #fundraising #majorgifts #philanthropy #nonprofit

Just because that gift seems big to you, doesn't mean it seems big to a donor. Recently, while talking with a nonprofit executive about their larger donors, we began discussing a foundation that supported their work. The organization was giving twice what they had originally given so the leader was feeling great about the support level. But with just a little bit of discussion about the foundation, I was able to help them understand that, provided they cast the appropriate vision, that there was no reason they couldn't be soliciting $100,000 gifts from the same foundation. When you approach a donor, it's important that we put aside our preconceived notions and focus our energy on learning the donors perspective instead. It also helps to have a good coach who can help you see when your assumptions about donors are costing your organization money. ;-) #majorgifts #fundraising #philanthropy #charity #nonprofit

Getting to know your donors is vital, even if those donors support you at lower levels. You will learn about the people who support your organization, why they give, how they see your organization, and how you may need to do to improve your organization. And while you are learning all of these valuable lessons, you may close some major gifts in the process! It is vital for everyone in your organization to know your donors, especially the Executive Director and outward facing staff. Want to learn more?

Reason #4 (of 6) you are not raising all the money you can for your nonprofit: you are telling a bedtime story… even though I bet you know what you are talking about. Storytelling is an art — and great stories have people asking, “where do I send my donation?” The good news: it’s a skill you can learn?

Your donors want to know, "What have you done for me lately?" What impact have you made? How have you changed the world with my donation? Are you making a difference, or simply feeling busy by attending meeting after meeting? Do you set monthly goals? Focus on making an impact and solving the problem. Donations will follow. #nonprofits #fundraising #philanthropy
