It's so easy.
In donor-centered fundraising, it's crucial.
Every day I try to respond to emails by picking up the phone and calling the person who just emailed me. They are usually happily surprised.
Then we get to talk. How is their day? How are we doing in our programs? Yes, our Gala was incredible. Our relationship just got stronger.
Calls don't have to be reserved for donors. Call your vendors too. Build relationships everywhere you can. Your development and marketing efforts can only get stronger because of them.
Plus, in some cases, who will make someones day.
It's easy. Just pick up the phone.
Thank you for reading!
