Raising Money To Make A Difference

Raise Money

Through myriad services and outreaches, we’ve witnessed nonprofit organizations worldwide make an incredible impact in their communities . . .

But changing the world requires a constant outpouring of support from generous donors!

Direct Response Fundraising: How It Works

For three decades, we’ve seen how the right direct response fundraising strategy and execution can drive thousands of people to support life-giving solutions year over year.

As trusted partners, you can depend on us for collaborative fundraising consulting that’s focused on your success—whether you need to attract new donors, upgrade current donors to monthly sustainers, renew active donors, and tap into the potential of mid and major donors.

Your donors are unique. So are the strategies to engage them. That’s why you deserve a collaborative partner who will strategize solutions for your distinct brand that balance best practices that work and custom innovative fundraising solutions.

Strategic Fundraising Analysis & Benchmarking

Your unique plan starts with harnessing our proprietary data analysis to identify what’s working and uncover your potential for growth.

The initial audit of your results is then combined with benchmarks and other client performance to highlight the critical areas of focus.

Working in Partnership to Reach Your Fundraising Goals

Do you have a goal to reach a certain number of donors in the next few years? Or is there a revenue goal you need to achieve to fund a new program in the future?

Together, we discuss these goals and use our advanced analytics engine to create a plan of the right mix of strategies and tactics to help you reach them.

We plan together in partnership so everyone at the table knows what needs to be accomplished, what resources need to be invested, and how we will reach your goals together.

Creating an Annual Plan that Works

Once the goals are defined, we create an annual plan that maps out audiences, channel mix, offers, and messages that will inspire your donors to give.

Measuring Results and Applying the Insights

With each project we compare actuals against our goals to measure our collective success.

Our results speak for themselves. In the past year, our clients have achieved and average of XX% of fundraising projections—meaning that when we put numbers in front of your nonprofit they can be counted on.

If at any time your organization falls to 4% below our projections, our entire strategy team is brought together to figure out what needs to be done immediately to hit the goal.

Start Your Fundraising Growth Today!

We believe in a partnership that gets results—because when we join together, your mission becomes our mission.
