These EDs Raise $100K a Month in Major Gifts Without a Gala (Even in Summer)

Four of my CourageLab clients told me THIS WEEK they’re now averaging an extra $100k in major gifts per month. Here’s what they do on Monday that changes everything.

They know who is on their list.

They have their prospect list locked in.

They know whom to call and say thank you to.

No, fundraising doesn’t take up their entire day.

They only spend 40 minutes to an hour on this, and it moves the needle because they have a clear roadmap.

They have the courage to ask for big gifts.

Like $120k on a Tuesday lunch. That’s just normal for them.

They have a dialed-in pitch that doesn’t take 20 minutes to explain and leaves the donor cross-eyed.

In this episode of Nonprofit CourageLab podcast, we cover:
