Episode Details

Most ministry leaders think the hard part of fundraising is getting the yes.

But what happens after that?

Because this is where a lot of people unknowingly make a mistake that slowly disconnects their donors—without realizing it.

They go quiet.

They only reach out when they need something.

Or they just don’t know what to say next.

And over time, the relationship fades.

In this episode, we’re talking about the mistake most people make after a donor says yes—and how to shift your approach so donors stay connected, engaged, and actually want to keep supporting your ministry.
