Today I share a proven 1-2-3 formula for nonprofit fundraising success — even when the ground underneath feels shaky.
This is a time when keeping one’s balance is quite a challenge. But, if you use this formula, you can steady yourself, right your organizational ship, and bring meaning, purpose and joy to others in your community who share your values.
What I’m about to share is obvious. I know you know it. But… do you do it?
Just in case you need a little reminder.
- The first step is essential for success in anything.
- The second step is essential for success in any consumer-facing business.

How do you lead the way forward, helping yourself and others navigate through the tough times?
I’d like to suggest you heed this 3-Step Formula to nonprofit fundraising success.
