Amazing Outcomes

Did you read the Chronicle of Philanthropy articles on St. Jude's in Memphis?  Amazing!  Led by David McKee this organization raised nearly $700,000,000 last year.  (I counted the zeros... this is not a typo!). 

What would it take for your organization to reach the greatest amount raised yet? 

There are a few keys:
  1. Make the "donor experience" with your organization the central point of your focus
  2. Have a lot of conversations
  3. Listen to your donors
  4. Thank them more than ask them, but....
  5. ASK!
Please take the poll on this page and let me know what you consider the most effective way to raise a lot of money very quickly.
