This is Your Personal VIP Invitation
Thursday, March 11, 2010
3:00 – 4:00 pm Eastern
If you are like most nonprofit leaders, you probably are very concerned these days about the impact of a tough economy on your ability to get needed resources for your organization or program. You see the need mushrooming in your community every day…and you see the companies around you starting to tighten their philanthropic belt. So what to do?
No matter how good your program or organization may be, if you can’t clearly make the case for why a business should support YOUR nonprofit organization over all the others also seeking their support, you are bound to fail. You need to know the right formula for approaching businesses to create win-win partnerships to secure the resources you so desperately need.
In this call, Susan Hyatt reveals how to move past the old school “beg for donations” and checkbook philanthropy mentality to present your organization, NOT as needy, but as a valuable partner – offering to share your assets (such as networks, publications, special events, etc.) with companies that choose to partner and share their resources with you. If you want to strengthen your “ask” and improve your success rate, you definitely need to attend this FREE teleseminar to:
- Learn about 4 current trends in the business world that affect giving practices;
- Discover the 4 critical needs of businesses that you can help address through a partnership;
- Learn the 10 biggest mistakes nonprofits make when seeking business support – so you don’t make them!
- And much more!
Get ready for an hour of information and insights that will change the tone and success of your business partnerships forever.
