Capital Campaigns
Successful capital campaigns can help organizations realize their most ambitious dreams. Whether you need support structuring and running a campaign or any part of it, including conducting a feasibility study, writing a case for support, preparing prospect research or cultivating and soliciting donors, put my services to work getting you across the finish line.
Interim Management
Gaps in the leadership of your fundraising program can have a serious impact on your organization’s bottom line. A 2019 survey found that 62% of fundraisers reported thinking about leaving their jobs. But hiring for this key role takes time - and it’s not a decision that should be rushed.
By engaging my interim management services you can keep your fundraising program running smoothly until your new hire is on board. I can also help with recruitment, including developing job postings, interview questions and assisting with candidate selection.
Fundraising Assessment
Is your fundraising program as effective as it could be? Are you executing the same strategies year after year, and seeing stagnant or declining results? A fundraising assessment might be the solution for you. I’ll take a deep dive into your program, looking at results, staffing, ROI and overall integration and make recommendations to improve your overall effectiveness.
Prospect Research
A pipeline of qualified prospects is crucial to the ongoing viability of your fundraising program, yet many organizations simply lack the internal resources to continuously search for and research prospects. Let me help with this critical function, uncovering the supporters who are aligned with your work so your organization is strong now and for the long haul.
Communications
You know how important it is to stay in touch with your supporters. Stewardship is the lifeblood of relationship building. If you need help writing copy for your supporter communications, let’s talk. Let’s tackle that case for support, annual report, direct mail package, impact report or enewsletter and thank, engage and inform your supporters.
Counsel
A nut you can’t crack? A puzzle you can’t solve? Sometimes a set of fresh eyes on a stale problem can unlock new solutions. Whether it’s board management, staffing, budgeting or any of the challenges that are part and parcel of leadership roles, counsel engagements provide neutral, experienced advice and support to tackle your toughest issues and maximize your biggest opportunities.
