16 Why is Face-to-Face fundraising a winning strategy? 1. One of the most effective ways to raise money. 2. Gives donors a chance to see and feel your passion. 3. Provides an opportunity to build trust. 4. Is an efficient use of resources. 5. It s dynamic (interactive), not static 6. Cannot be duplicated in brochure, video, website. Winning Strategy!
17 Face-to-Face Calamity Forcing folks to ask for money A missed donation because the asker wasn t effective. A smaller donation because the asker wasn t effective. A donor leaves the nonprofit due to a bad experience. A donor tells shares her bad experience with others. The asker leaves because he feels forced to ask for money, or he feels uncomfortable asking for money. Page 4
