Is a Growth membership right for you?

 

Our ideal members fall into one of three categories: brand new to the fundraising profession, individual fundraisers or members of a larger development team, or experienced fundraisers who want to scale their fundraising program to new heights.

Here’s what we know to be true:

The pressure on fundraisers has never been greater.

You're charged with raising even MORE money during these challenging and disruptive times.

It can feel overwhelming – and frustrating – when trying to raise MORE money with the same ol fundraising plan – or LACK thereof. 

Then there's the matter of how to improve your donor retention rate.

And how to get meetings with elusive donors.

To make matters worse, you don't have leadership and board alignment on development priorities, let alone a clear path to achieve your fundraising goals.

And while not enough board members are engaged in your fundraising efforts – they still expect you to somehow improve your fundraising results.

You're feeling stuck. I get it.

The good news is you don't have to go it alone. I can help you get unstuck.

The bottom line:

If you want to create a clear path for achieving your fundraising goals and raise more money, gain leadership and board alignment on your fundraising priorities, learn how to raise more money and with fewer resources, get traction with your annual fundraising plan, raise major gifts with those elusive donors, and build team accountability for meeting or exceeding your fundraising goals, then joining my Fundraising Transformers community as a Growth member is for you.

Fundraising Transformers Growth Member

"After nearly 17 years of fundraising, I became a Fundraising Transformer because I realized there were still some things I needed to learn. To learn new and relevant skills. The best part of being in the Fundraising Transformers community is the community itself. It gives me a platform to talk to my peers, listen to how they're resolving some of their issues, and the opportunity to share some of my experiences. If you're considering becoming a Fundraising Transformer, my advice to you is this: do it! Whether you're entry-level or a seasoned professional, this is the platform to help you be more successful."

"Tammy's training tools are incredibly applicable to diverse levels of experience. Her coaching style is kind and attentive, in that of a highly-engaged developer with a strong growth mindset designed to help you be your very best. The best part of being in the community is access to industry experts who have storehouses of experiences and tried-and-true tools that can help you be successful. It's like having a team of people you can go to ask questions, get feedback and guidance when you're stuck or want to validate what you're doing is correct."
