Back to EpisodesInside the Mastermind: How 5 Nonprofits Launched Monthly Giving Programs
Description
What happens when FIVE nonprofit leaders overcome their fear of asking for monthly donations? Transformation. Growth. Sustainability.
Today’s episode is an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the final support call of my Monthly Giving Mastermind.
The Campers, The Plenty, The Advocates, The Circle, and The Cultivators reflect on their launch journeys, their biggest mindset shifts, how they leveraged their boards, and the strategies that are already helping them attract and retain monthly donors.
You’ll hear firsthand how FundraiseUp, Flodesk, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator all played a role in simplifying their tech stack, personalizing and segmenting their audiences, and building stronger donor relationships.
Plus, Dana and the group discuss the underestimated power of asking current donors to invite a friend or updating automated thank-you emails to create meaningful momentum.
This was such a fun round working with these organizations, and so I wanted you to hear how we wrap, and the discussion and the support for one another, and my desire and what I'm plan
P.S. I'll be bringing these organizations back in 6-8 months to share their continued progress! If you want to apply for the next round, click here.
