The Fundraising QuickStart Home Study Kit!

A content-rich program to help you get funding NOW!

If you’ve been looking for the answers to easily raise money for your nonprofit, here’s the perfect solution for you!

The Fundraising QuickStart Home Study Kit!

The Fundraising QuickStart program was delivered live in March of 2011 and was designed to help students zero in on the strategies that are guaranteed to raise funds quickly. It was such a success that we’ve taken the materials and created the Fundraising QuickStart Home Study Kit so that you can benefit, too.

This was great!  You gave us so much great information!
This was the best money I’ve spent yet on my nonprofit!

These are just some of the comments the Fundraising QuickStart students shared with us after the webinar series.

The Home Study Kit contains all the same information delivered in the live webinar series.  It has 6 modules, each one focused on one particular area of donor-based fundraising. You’ll discover the strategies that will best work for your nonprofit and the action steps you need to take to implement what you’ve learned quickly and easily.  You’ll learn the mistakes you must avoid including how to stop thinking small and how to leverage your opportunities. It’ll be like having your own personal fundraising trainer to stretch you and help you grow!

What is Donor-based fundraising?

Donor-based fundraising is all about building relationships with donors and prospects so that they give because they love the work your organization is doing.  There’s no selling candy bars or holding car washes.  The strategies that you’ll learn in the Fundraising QuickStart are the same ones the BIG nonprofits use and you can too!

We’ll talk about the systems for fundraising that you need in place, why they are important, and how they will save you time. And we’ll talk about the mental stance you need to take to be effective in fundraising.

You’ll get tips on how to spread the word about your nonprofit including working with the local media to get your nonprofit in the news.
Module 3: Individual Donors – The Bread and Butter of Fundraising
Individual donors are the largest source of untapped potential for any nonprofit. In this session, we’ll focus on individual donors and why you need them. You’ll learn a variety of techniques for engaging them, like special events and direct mail, as well as how to implement these techniques correctly.
Module 4: Go Get That Grant!
Grantwriting is the most common fundraising strategy used by nonprofits and for good reason: millions in grants are awarded each year to nonprofits around the world. In this session, you’ll learn how to do grantwriting effectively, from researching potential funders to putting together a proposal.

You’ll get dozens of tips on how to create a winning proposal and traps to steer clear of.
Module 5: The Big Kahuna of Fundraising - Major Gifts

In this session, you’ll learn how to get started raising lots of money from a handful of donors. We’ll share how to identify potential major donors, how to effectively cultivate them, and how to ASK for the donation! If you get the ONE strategy right, it will make fundraising easier for now and for years to come!
