The Winning Side of the Ask

The Heart and Skills of the Donor-Centric Professional Fundraiser

De: Eric Hogue

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Any Fundraiser will learn how to develop a highly functional fundraising operation, how to engage donors in respectful, graceful and meaningful ways to create lasting, difference-making philanthropic mutual outcomes and impacts. As a non-profit organization, you will also learn how to practically build donor portfolios, fundraising teams, understand emerging donor personalities, and ultimately design a philanthropic culture where the fundraiser becomes the donor advisor and the donor is always treated as the NPO’s investor, partner, and – in reality – the hero of the story!

What others are saying...

“Eric Hogue shows us how to build sustainable fundraising practices on bedrock values, how to develop a vocabulary and nomenclature consistent with those values, how to organize and weigh a highly functional and adaptive advancement operation, and how to engage prospects and donors in respectful, graceful and meaningful ways to create lasting, difference-making philanthropic compacts.”

“Hogue gives both the seasoned and beginning fundraising professional guidance and courage to go beyond the well-worn path of ordinary fundraising to the narrower path to fundraising excellence. Ignore these lessons to your professional peril!”

A Higher Purpose, Donor Centered Approach

I loved the author’s perspective on the “higher purpose” a donor-centered fundraiser serves and his approach to building trusted relationships with donors and leading philanthropy teams. I also appreciated how he tied this work to his Christian faith. He offers solid advice and guidance to being a skilled and values-focused fundraiser in Higher Education.
