Hi John,

Hope you are having a happy Friday!

Come take a walk with us into major donor land today.

Imagine yourself: there you are, sitting in front of your donor. They’ll say something about their ability to make a gift, but your donor is not being very clear.

And you just don’t know how to probe a bit more to find out what they really mean.

Do you ever feel awkward asking your donor for an explanation?

Today, senior consultant Kathryn Gamble shares with you exactly how to treat this delicate situation.

How to Probe More Deeply in a Major Donor Conversation

Finally, here’s some great coaching for you on how to handle that muddy, unclear moment with a major donor. What did they really say??

Take a quick look at Kathryn's post, and sharpen your own donor conversation skills!

And have a lovely weekend. Thank you for all that you do. Hope you are surviving the rain and snow of winter!

Dedicated to your amazing success,

Gail

PS: Major Gifts Roadmap Coaching registrations closed out for 2020 with a record number of applicants!

We love joining so many teams, and helping to train and encourage people along. We will all be working together to make the world a better place, no doubt.
