Listen "How (and Why) Nonprofits Should Engage with Donors DIFFERENTLY to Build Lasting Relationships"

Episode Synopsis

Relationships are everything.  So, why is it that nonprofits often come to donors with the never-ending ask, as if the donor or potential donor is simply an ATM?  What donor wants THAT kind of relationship with a nonprofit?  How do we shift our traditional fundraising methodology to something that feels more authentic and long-term, working with donors as valued partners, rather than simply short-term and transactional---to create overarching success---from both the donor's AND the nonprofit’s point-of-view?  Author, donor, and charitable giving expert Lisa Zola Greer tells compelling stories about how it feels to be excluded from meaningful conversations---and what nonprofits can do to change that.  See the link to Lisa's new book here: The Essential Fundraiser’s Handbook: A Guide to Maximizing Donations, Retaining Donors, and Saving the Giving Sector for Good – Lisa Greer
