Make it a MAY to Remember!

Join Dan Portnoy and I for a half day of training on how to best equip your team for this year’s campaigns. We’re calling it Connect + Engage because we all know: that’s how you win donors and catalyze audiences.

We wanted to share what we’re seeing in successful non-profits and provide helps in several areas from telling your story to connecting with volunteers. Each session will be done in a fast-paced, poignant style with lots of images, kind of like a TED talk. We aren’t holding anything back.

Do you want to know how to raise more money than you ever have this year?
We’ll tell you.
How is this year’s campaign video going to connect with the most people?
We’ll tell you.
How can you ensure that you’re creating the most engaging story?
We’ll tell you.

Here’s what the training looks like:

Welcome, expectations, ground rules

Session 1 – Getting your story right, tone, modes.

Session 2 – Determining audiences

Session 3 – Connection and engagement, principles and strategy

Session 4 – Using social media effectively and efficiently
