This One Question Will Make You a Better Fundraiser

Do you want to be a better fundraiser?

Of course you do.

Here’s one question that will help you raise more money - increasing your impact.

It will help you raise more money because it will help you be more efficient with your time.

And it will help you build a solid portfolio with many good prospects.

I’m not saying it will help a little with your schedule.

I’m saying it could make you radically more efficient.

What is it?

What one question will save you time (not to mention blood, sweat, tears and false hope?)

Ask this question sincerely on the first visit:

“Would you be open to considering a gift in the future?”

That’s it.

Simple, isn't it?

Getting in the door is the hard part. Make the most of it when the door is opened.

And by the way, play the long game. Relationships first.
