Live

As a self-confessed, previously ‘mediocre’ fundraiser, presenter Michelle Stein felt frustrated with the average and reactive major donor program she led at an international development charity. However, once she uncovered the right planning tools and tactics, she saw extraordinary results: doubling income in a year, bringing in a million-pound gift, and building a robust prospect pipeline. She now wants to show you how to have the same success with your major donor program!

If you would like your major gift fundraising to meet and exceed targets, then join Michelle where, step by step, she will share the most important planning tools to get you the results you want. You’ll learn how to plan and create gift tables, event calendars, and stewardship levels as well as practical communication tactics to build trust and connection with donors.

These tools, which cover each stage of the major donor cycle, are easily replicable, suitable for small, medium, and large organizations, and amazingly, cost nothing to implement.  

During This Nonprofit Webinar, You Will Learn:

  • Step 1: How to strategically plan a prospect list and gift table: starting from a blank template we’ll build a gift table and identify how many prospects are needed to reach income targets.  
  • Step 2: How to make your website major donor friendly - what to include to ensure major donors and wealth advisors know you can handle big gifts.   
  • Step 3: How to create an events calendar with KPIs (key performance indicators) which align with your income target.
  • Step 4: How to build rapport quickly with donors using insight questions, language mirroring, and body and voice matching.
  • Step 5: How to plan consistent stewardship at different donor levels. 

You’ll Get These BONUS Materials:

  1. Gift table template
  2. Events calendar planner template
  3. Donor Question Template   
  4. Stewardship Tiers Template
  5. The Webinar Slides
