In todayâs episode, we dive into the 5 key elements of crafting a winning and simple fundraising plan using the pre-loaded year methodology.
Itâs the same method we teach in the Fundraising Academyâand the same method we use with clients in our agency work.
A lot of organizations struggle to create simple and actionable plans they can execute on. Thatâs because for most small-to-mid sized nonprofits, complicated plans areâŚwell, too complex to actually want to take action on.
But without a plan, nonprofits risk falling short on their financial goals. And they become overwhelmed by the tyranny of the urgent.
Enter the pre-loaded year methodologyâan innovative approach that simplifies the fundraising planning process by creating a One Page Fundraising plan.
The kind of plan you can pin to the wall next to your computer screen. The kind of plan that isnât overwhelming.
In this episode, we explore the step-by-step guide to implementing this strategy, ensuring that your organization not only meets but exceeds its fundraising objectives.

Do you feel like you have a focused fundraising strategy?
Or does it feel like youâre being asked to do something else every few months?
Have youâor your leadershipâbeen so derailed by that shiny, new opportunity (looking at you, TikTok) that you lose sight of what's important?
A strategic plan might helpâif you approach it the right way.
Now, letâs be honest, you might already have a plan in place.
It might be sitting on a shelf. Gathering dust. It might just be a long list of lofty goals you want to achieve. It might not even have a strategy at all!
Thatâs why how you approach creating a plan is just as important as creating it in the first place.
So in todayâs chat, we get into the power of strategic planning and how it can be a tool to keep your team and your leadership focused on raising more revenue and cultivating your donors.
Weâre talking with Kim Bersin, founder of Donor Speak Consulting. She works with organizations around the globe and has helped raise millions across charitable sectors.

We live in the golden age of digital fundraisingâthe most efficient ecosystem in which to test, learn and refine.
Digital has immense power to drive strategies that scale and connect deeply with our donors. AND it plays nicely with so many other channels, including direct mail.
Yet most organizations use it backwards.
Instead of leading with digital, theyâre bolting on digital strategies on the back end of other efforts, hoping to get a boost.
So how can we learn to lead with digital?
On todayâs podcast, we chat with Erik Rubadeau. Heâs the CEO of Yeeboo Digital, a data driven, full service online fundraising and technology agency.
His expertise on digitally led fundraising and tech innovation and adoption has helped hundreds of nonprofits launch new initiatives and grow their revenue.
What âleading with digitalâ means?How to use digital to test new ideas with little risk or investment.How to make the switch from digital as a âbolt onâ to digital-first fundraising.Some core tools and strategies nonprofits of all sizes can use to lead with digital.

Youâve likely heard that the donor should be the hero in your fundraising messaging.
The phrase had a noble intent.
It was meant to encourage us to shift our perspective away from meeting revenue targets, and toward finding alignment with our ideal donorsâ goals and values.
But over time, it became misunderstood. Misconstrued. And misapplied.
The âdonor as heroâ metaphor turned into âthe donor is always rightââcausing some organizations to do real harm.
So is it time to think about a better way to express the way we approach our fundraising?
In this freewheeling chat, we get into:
The storytelling triadThe phases of fundraising that led to donor-centric fundraising What do people mean when they say the donor is the hero Why can that philosophyâif misunderstood and misappliedâbecome harmful The difference between donor-led and donor-centric fundraisingWhatâs a better way of thinking about âdonor as heroââ

If youâve ever tried running Facebook and Instagram ads to attract new donors, you may have realized it isnât all that easy.
Truth is, an effective paid ads strategy for nonprofits trying to attract new donors is a lot different than running ads for for-profits that are selling products. Yet most of the information youâll find on running online ads is geared toward for-profits.
On todayâs BG Live, weâre getting into how you can start to acquire new donors with Meta adsâwithout wasting a ton of money.
Ben Stewart from Louder gets into how you can use lookalike audiences for Facebook & Instagram Ads to help you attract new leads, new event attendees and new donors. Itâs an easy place to start, because it allows you to use what you know about your current donors to help you find your future supporters.
Ben is on a mission to help nonprofit organizations apply digital marketing best practices so they can raise more funds and do more good. With experience in live event production, vocational ministry, and digital marketing, he helps purposeful brands improve their messaging, marketing, and websites so they can increase their impact on the world.
