I will never understand the 'strategy' to not invest in #CommunityFundraising

Investing leads to overall fundraising uplift. Community Fundraisers are the face of your charity, building authentic relationships & empowering supporters to be ambassadors.

Why wouldn't you invest in that?

How did one charity raise £30k (and counting!) and gain 2k new donors overnight?

With the power of one story...

The most common mistake I see charities make with London Marathon places is...

Not allocating places to runners who are most likely to hit and smash their fundraising targets.

You need the Marathon Maximiser Bundle;

* Template application form + T&Cs
* Scoring system
* Topline marketing plan

#DYK joy helps combat stress, boosts resiliance & connection.

When the work we do is big, important & sometimes scary it's important to look after ourselves.

My clients talk about the 'energy' I bring. I put all of this down to looking for moments of joy.

What joy have you expereinced lately?

Gumption
Joy
Integrity

A former events fundraiser who doesn't know how to put up a banner? Yeeah...I bliming hate those things.

And apparently no matter how long you've been fundraising, how senior you may be - you will still need to be putting up a pull up banner!

So lovely to hear from awesome fundraisers sharing that they got #LondonMarathon places because they saw my video!
