Discovering Your Donor’s Passions and Interests
Do you know your donor’s passions and interests? We mean, really know them? If not, that’s not uncommon. Many organizations and fundraisers struggle to learn their donor’s true passions and interests because other things get in the way.
Like…
… Belief that because the donor has always given to Program X, that is her passion.
… Struggling to know how to dig deeper when a donor says, “I just love everything that you do!”
… Not knowing what to do next when a donor doesn’t seem to have a strong connection.
If you are ready to learn how to truly discover your donor’s passions and interests and how to use that information to better serve your donor, then this course is for you!
