MONTH 1 WHAT YOUR DONORS NEED TO SEE AND HEAR FROM YOU
Your top donors need to be able to easily understand your plans, programs, and financials. In essence, each donor needs to know the role they play in your growth. Every year there are a number of tasks, plans, and presentations that must be created so solicitor to be successful. Here’s what I’ll teach you this month:
- How to translate strategic documents into appropriate, donor-focused pieces
- Ensuring your programs are donor-digestible
- How to approach and establish your actual, financial need for growth year after year
- The best way to create healthy, low-risk, annual giving patterns
- What your impact-driven plans and financials need to look like for donor meetings and solicitations
- How adopting a growth mindset leads to more confidence (and money) during the big ask
MONTH 2 THE EXPERIENCE DONORS NEED TO RECEIVE FROM YOU EVERY YEAR
Your goal is to receive your donor’s best gift. Each donor needs to be given an annual experience tailored to their needs – one that is exclusive and sincere. Every year you need to take time to plan out the individual journey your donors take with your organization. When you create a positive experience with them all year long, you will have greater results during your solicitations. Here’s what I’ll teach you this month:
- The best approach to segmenting the donor base by type and level of generosity

Now, it’s time to practice all you’ve learned and created. Your donors need to be asked to invest in your organization. I hear you – I know you are scared. But your fear will be greatly reduced when you have the right mindset and tools in hand. Here’s what I’ll teach you this month:
- How to solicit for your organization’s key annual gifts
- How to present solicitation tools in a variety of situations
- Practical ways to use your gift chart
