Dealing with Difficult People: Learn a New Skillset for Today's Multigenerational, Multicultural Workplace

When I started fundraising, phrases like donor attrition, lapsed donors, or low donor retention stressed me out, and I know I’m not alone. Unfortunately, most of the time when we get advice about how to better retain our donors, it’s a one-size-fits-all old-school methodology that doesn’t work for us. The fundraising landscape is changing rapidly and the way funders want to work with nonprofits is too. The methodology we are going to talk about in this webinar is a totally different way to fundraise from the beginning AND a different way to steward your donors that ensures alignment, engagement, and retention.

GivingTuesday is behind us, but there's still time to boost fundraising on the last two days of the year where half of all the gifts made in December will be made on December 30 and 31, totaling about $30 Million. Inside of just thirty minutes, we'll preview the plan you need to retain donors for the rest of December so you can leverage the biggest GivingTwoDays of the calendar year.

When a donor makes a bequest or major gift to a nonprofit, it’s a strong indicator of their passion for the cause, and loyalty to the organization. But many nonprofits don’t properly steward these donors beyond an initial “thank you.”

This webinar will help you address your roadblocks asking for money. Learn how to avoid some common mistakes in fundraising from individuals and learn the facts about who gives away money and who can be asked for a donation. Take away specific language to make a strong ask, which is based on relationship-building and relationships you already have.
