Something that I've learned from my years in the fundraising industry is that donor relationships aren’t as easy as they seem... But maintaining these relationships is everything. Over the years, I’ve seen 5 common misconceptions nonprofits have about donor relationships. Misconception #1: “We need some quick fundraising wins”  Misconception #2: “Donors don’t want to hear from us too often”  Misconception #3: “Our organization’s reputation speaks for itself”  Misconception #4: “We should only talk about major milestones”  Misconception #5: “We should spend the majority of our time targeting companies and foundations” If these sound familiar, you’re not alone. Many nonprofits struggle with these pitfalls—and that’s why I’m creating an in-depth course on how to avoid them. ➡ Join the waitlist now to be first in line when it launches (which should be very, very soon!).
