Episode Details

If you’re learning fundraising on the fly and not sure where to find people who can give larger gifts, this episode will save you months of trial and error.

In part 2 of my conversation with Regina Alhassan, founder of ResearchPro and longtime advancement professional, we use her story as the backdrop for something every new fundraiser needs to learn: how to spot great donor prospects hiding in plain sight.

This episode is beginner friendly and packed with practical takeaways.

In this episode, we cover:

• How Regina’s lived experience in advancement shaped her decision to start her own consulting practice
• Why many nonprofits overlook some of their most promising donors
• What “prospecting” really means in simple terms: looking at the people already connected to your organization and noticing signs of greater capacity
• Why small, consistent gifts can be the biggest clues to major donor potential
• Easy ways to analyze your donor list (even if you have no tools and no training)
• The early steps nonprofits can take to build a healthier donor pipeline
• When outside help can accelerate your results

If you’ve ever stared at your donor list wondering who to talk to first or how to grow beyond your current budget, this conversation will give you a clear starting point.
