South West Fundraisers Forum online networking event - an informal space to network, learn and be empowered to raise more. 

Wow Your Donors! How to use ‘peak moments’ to grow income, in spite of the cost of living crisis

With Rob Woods, Bright Spot

You raise dramatically more money when you create surprise or insight beyond what’s expected. And in difficult times, people appreciate it even more if you help them feel special or connected to the difference they make.

To help you get your own ideas, Rob will share five examples of WOW tactics that creative fundraisers have used recently to transform their results. The session includes:

• WHY      IT WORKS – The psychology and research showing why this approach is so      effective.
• CUT      THROUGH - The technique that lifted one fundraisers’ success rate with      trusts from one in six, to ONE in TWO.
• GET      CHOSEN - How a corporate fundraiser from a fairly small charity used this      approach to win a £1million partnership in the winter of 2022.

The session will not be recorded to enable people to talk openly and frankly. We hope you’ll join us and be part of the conversation!
