Real Conversations with Major Donors

Thursday, November 21, 2024

1-2pm EST

 

 

Wondering what you could and should be doing today to prepare for a stronger major gift program tomorrow? During these constantly changing times, relationships matter. Following the fundraising cycle (cultivation-solicitation-stewardship) leads to strong donor relationships, but what does this cycle look like in practice?

Vice President Hilary Fulp and Consultant Rachel Kimble will show you the proven steps to have meaningful conversations and build stronger relationships with your donors by keeping them engaged and properly communicating impact. Through this practical presentation, they will share key points such as:

  • How do I genuinely get to know a donor?
  • What do I actually say when making the ask?
  • How do I close a gift?
  • What do I do if the ask doesn’t go according to plan?
  • How do I keep donors engaged after they give?
  • How do I ask them to give again?
  • And of course…How do I involve my board and volunteers in this process?

Register today to get insights on strategically communication with your donors!
