Description

It should not take you more than a year to close a major gift. The days of cultivating for 18+ months is OVER.  I hope this story inspires you to:

• embrace permission-based fundraising
• trim your portfolio so that you have 40-60 qualified prospects
• go deeper with fewer prospects, as opposed to shallow efforts with hundreds of prospects
