Getting to Know You: 42 Questions to Ask Major Donor Prospects
Grab your free copy
What's inside:
- How to build trust with your donor base
- Questions to learn more about major donors
- How to ask about a donor’s philanthropic goals
- Tactics your nonprofit can use to share your goals with donors
- Proven ways to persuade donors to become involved with your organization
- A real life example of a major donor conversation
It's about the relationship, not the "ask."
If you want your donor to dig deep, they must be inspired.
Your success depends less on how well you ask for gifts and more on how well you’ve taken your major gift prospects on a journey with you – one in which you’ve built a strong and personal relationship with them.
The better you get to know folks, the better you can tailor your proposal to their interests.
