“Engagement was great! Lots of good discussion in the chat, and knowing we were all on a big screen that Sandy could see made it feel more like we were together in a big room. Great job! I took the webinar “Do These 3 Things Now to Blow Past Your Holiday Fundraising Goals” and Sandy talked about the planning calendar. I got a lot out of that webinar and I reaaallllyyyy wanted that calendar, so I signed up. 🙂

Oh my goodness, I got SO many takeaways! [Just to name a few]: Nonprofits don’t have needs — those you serve have needs; donors don’t give to you, they give THROUGH you; the planning calendar; and the storytelling formula. 

The information was fantastic and will be useful and helpful, but the best part was that you made it FUN and interactive!

This is well worth the time. You’ll come away with TONS of actionable tips!”

“You exceeded my expectations in keeping us interested AND entertained.

Our program feels dormant after many covid pivots, which made it hard to feel enthused about asking for money.  Your weekly emails helped, but being able to devote time to getting ready for “fundraising season” was a perfect antidote.

I felt like I was getting real and useful information from those with experience and joy in their work.  What could be better?

I think it was powerful that you had many coaches right in the chat supporting everyone while Sandy kept things moving.

It was a surprisingly great way to get re-energized to prepare for the fall giving season. So many inventive ways that we were kept engaged while being given really useful and succinct information.  Time wasn’t wasted, it was well spent and even enjoyed!”

“I have had SO MANY AHA moments the last two days! I came into this feeling uninspired, tired, stressed. I am feeling energized, encouraged, and have gained so many tools and ideas to take back to our board. I feel alive again and know we can do so much more moving forward. Thank you so much for the time and energy you put into this retreat! You are an AWESOME Team. Thank you for putting this all together for us. You’re a lifesaver.”

“If you really want to learn strategies that can change the game for your organization, you don’t want to miss this! I came back because I needed to be with my people and be re-energized and focused to rock out end of year!”

“I’ve learned so much at these events. I’ve enjoyed everyone sharing their expertise and the creative ways in which they are shared. THANK YOU for helping me to be more successful for my non-profit! Thank you to everyone for making this another great experience. I can’t wait to come to an in-person event in the future! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!”

“Don’t put this off!  It’s worth every penny and more!!  You really get your money’s worth and it will be an unforgettable joy that will stay with you and give you the energy and enthusiasm to keep going…even if you’re tired.  The love that was demonstrated will pull you through.  Plus, it will help you not only as a  non-profit supporter but as a human being too.  If you think about it, life doesn’t give us many opportunities to fulfill our own needs though we love helping others get theirs met.  We all crave having our spiritual needs fulfilled and this virtual workshop does it for each of us as caring people and as the ones who want to spread this kind of love around our beautiful planet Earth.  This workshop empowers important path cutters who are here to serve a much larger plan!”

“There’s so much useful content in two days, I rarely attend a conference with so much information that I can immediately implement. Everyone is super positive and helpful – the connections you’ll make at the event are priceless.  This is a particularly good conference for a non-profit that’s in their first 1-5 years of existence.  That said, I was truly impressed with a) the number of well-established non-profits that came and shared their experiences, and b) the number of people who raised their hands as repeat attendees. It’s an incredible amount of work to put an event like this together – content alone is huge, but all the tech is a whole different ball game. WELL DONE!!!“

“You all did an amazing job with the virtual retreat! I loved getting to meet new people and bounce some thoughts around. It was also nice to know that I have some things figured out and still have a lot of work to do in some other areas. The fundraising retreat was amazing and I loved every minute of it. I feel empowered and actually capable of raising the funds we need to do the work that we are called to and this is all because of you and your team! Thanks again!!”

“I attended Day 1 of the conference and I’d like to tell you that it was time well spent. I very much appreciate your guidance and attention to detail. I thought the material was well organized and presented clearly (even the math – I was a math major in college 🙂). I also very much appreciate your attempts to give us mental and physical breaks. Got to admit my eyes are (happily) pretty tired right now. But the varied activities, raffles, and especially the stretching helped keep me focused. I thank you for that. Oh…. and Billy Boyd was a delightful include. I’m LOL as I write this – that really was wonderful.”
