During the working lunch and afternoon clinic you’ll roll up your sleeves to work on specific fundraising tasks. The clinic will provide an ideal environment for starting your sponsorship projects. Parker will be available to offer tips and advice in small groups and one-on-one. Bring your laptop, your past and future sponsorship projects, and your best ideas for implementing strategies discussed during the morning. By working solo or in collaboration with peers, you’ll capitalize on the day’s learnings.
Did you attend Parker’s workshops at our 2016 Leadership Summit? There will be some overlap, but this is a much deeper dive than we had a chance to cover in those workshops. New content: valuing benefits, prospecting, timelines, securing support from staff/volunteers, more in-depth case studies, and more!
