http://ndi2mgru.org ** VISIT HERE FOR MORE INFO...LAST WEEK FOR SUNCOAST NONPROFITS (http://nd= i2mgru.org) ------------------------------------------------------------ YOU'RE INVITED TO JOIN US NEXT WEEK at the United Way of Manatee County to= discover the truth about feasibility studies and why consultants insist o= n selling them to you (even though they don't work!) =2E..or call 800 257 6670 to speak to live team member ------------------------------------------------------------ To My Fellow Nonprofit Executives=2C Donors & Volunteers=2C Have you ever wondered if performing a feasibility study is a wise investm= ent of your organization's time and money? Did you know that 80% of feasibility study results are inconclusive or rep= ort that... =2E..YOU'RE NOT READY FOR CAMPAIGN! Why then do nonprofits pay $25=2C000 to $50=2C000 to find out what they al= ready know? There are several answers but here's the three most important ones... #1 Consulting firms primary source of revenue is based on a flawed and arc= haic business model that requires you to pay for a service you aren't read= y for and may never need #2 Nonprofits would rather avoid the hard work of donor cultivation by pay= ing an out-of-town third party to perform the visits they should really be= doing themselves #3 "That's they way we've always done it" (or even worse) "that's the way= other nonprofits do it" There's also a moral issue at play here. All to often feasibility study re= sults are misrepresented because the consulting firm performing the study= stands to make more money by running the campaign after the study process= has been completed. Tragically=2C there are hundreds of nonprofits in the= middle of stalled campaigns because their consultant manipulated leadersh= ip into believing a goal could be reached that was never achievable. If your team is considering expanding annual fund=2C launching a capital c= ampaign or building endowment then you'll want to spend some time explorin= g these important issues at a Major Gifts Ramp-Up Conference. Over 9=2C000= of your colleagues have already taken this important step and have not on= ly avoided critical mistakes but have launched fundraising projects that..= =2E =E2=80=A6come in OVER GOAL =E2=80=A6are completed ON SCHEDULE =E2=80=A6are executed UNDER BUDGET =E2=80=A6result in HAPPY VOLUNTEERS =E2=80=A6produce GRATEFUL DONORS =E2=80=A6promote COMMUNITY PRIDE We look forward to meeting you personally at one of our upcoming Major Gif= ts Ramp-Up Event (March 24-25 Bradenton=2C FL United Way of Manatee Count= y) We know that budgets are tight which is why NDI's Board of Directors is ma= king this two-day offering available to your entire team for only $198 (un= limited registrations).
