There are many diverse benefits to partnering with a solo consultant (versus a large nonprofit consulting firm) to support and achieve your mission-driven objectives. This is confirmed by the heartfelt testimonials I’ve received from my many nonprofit clients. Such benefits include, but are not limited to:
- Better economic value than a bigger firm
- No expenses to support a big team, marketing, or other overhead costs.
- You get me for every stage of the process (no “delegating” the work to junior associates), which means you’ll always get the experience and skills of a senior, seasoned nonprofit fundraising professional.
- I only take on a few projects at a time; you will feel like you’re my only client.
- Fundraising Staff Not Required
- I am willing to partner with clients that have no formal fundraising program or no paid professional fundraising staff.
- I can serve as your outsourced fundraising leader while we determine together the best course of action that will have the biggest impact on your mission and goals.
- Outsourcing of smaller, specific nonprofit advancement tasks
- I am resourceful and have a wide network of nonprofit colleagues (expert connections/subject matter experts) with whom I can partner or subcontract to provide any service you need, e.g., donor/prospect research, grant writing, planned giving, marketing and communications, and executive search.
- You pay for only the particular fundraising services your 501(c)(3) organization needs, versus paying for access to all the services offered by a larger nonprofit fundraising consulting firm. With more control over your fundraising budget, it can be maximized for greatest impact.
- Custom-tailored proposals
- My proposals address your nonprofit’s specific challenges and opportunities; no two projects are alike.
- My scope of work, work plan, and consulting fees are calculated to my daily fee and what I can deliver based upon your nonprofit organization’s needs, timing, and budget parameters.
