Approach & Need Discovery: Asking the Right Questions
Approach & Need Discovery: Asking the Right Questions
with Muhi Khwaja
June 2 | 10:00-11:00AM CT
Philanthropy as we know it has changed. New virtual tools have created new avenues for human connection, and fundraisers are faced with the challenge to deepen relationships with their donors in a quasi-virtual climate. As a fundraiser, you may have gained new donors with whom you have only connected virtually. Or, you may have discovered new donors in your database with whom you have never connected. How do you introduce new prospects with your organization and connect with your existing donor base? The good news is you can still develop strong, authentic donor relationships in a virtual or hybrid format.
In this webinar, we will discover how you can reignite donor relationships through thoughtful questioning and listening. Fundraisers have the opportunity and privilege of connecting with people, discovering what they truly care about, learning their personal stories, and connecting them with meaningful causes.
Join Muhi Khwaja and Fundraising Academy Cause Selling Education so you can confidently engage your supporters and convert them into lasting champions for your organization.
In this webinar, you will:
- Discover the key contributors to a strong first impression.
- How to improve donor relationships
- Review fundamental questions that will help uncover your donor’s “Why.”
