Asking for money is tough. Let’s face it, not many of us enjoy the prospect of approaching somebody and asking them for a donation. But what it the person your asking is a corporation (they are people, you know). Talk about being nervous…

Sitting in a board room and asking for money from a business can be intimidating. But this is just what our guest, Carolyn Appleton, does for a living. Carolyn shares with us her experiences working with nonprofits and how she helps them find donations from businesses.

Also, I announce the upcoming “Ultimate Crowdfunding Course”. It’s a four part webinar course that will help you set up your next crowdfunding campaign from start to finish. You can learn more about the course on the Ultimate Crowdfunding Course page.
