Show Notes

For many nonprofits, some of their most important data comes from fundraising efforts and donors. Getting the right fundraising database is critical to capturing, maintaining, and using that data. So how do you know if you're getting the "right" one? 

Join Chad Barger from Productive Fundraising to learn how to start with what's NOT working first, explore the available options without getting overwhelmed, and stay focused on what matters most. 

Chad Barger is the chief strategist and owner of the firm Productive Fundraising.  The firm teaches nonprofits how to be more efficient with their limited fundraising time by putting donors first and creating simple fundraising systems that deliver sustainable, growing revenue. To many fundraisers he is better known as @fundraiserchad, the host of a popular free monthly webinar series.  On his website, productivefundraising.com, Chad curates top notch fundraising toolkits designed to fast track implementation of fundraising best practices.  He’s also a bit of a personal productivity nerd and loves to share tips to help busy professionals work more efficiently and effectively.

Make sure to download Chad's Ultimate Guide To Fundraising that we discuss in the episode, and check out his Solicitation Performance Index spreadsheet that can track and calculate the nine components of successful fundraising.
