SUMMARY:Building Your 2027 Fundraising Strategy: An Executive Workshop for Sustainable Revenue Growth
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nAs 2026 closes\, the organizations that outperform in 2027 are the ones that act now—with clarity\, precision\, and a fully informed strategy. \nThis high-impact\, 2-hour executive workshop is designed for nonprofit leaders who are ready to turn year-end performance into a focused\, data-driven fundraising plan for the year ahead. With your full 2026 results in hand\, this session will guide you in making critical strategic decisions before calendars reset and opportunities are lost. \nYear-end is not just a reporting milestone—it is your most powerful planning moment. Organizations that rigorously analyze performance and finalize strategy before Q1 consistently see stronger revenue growth\, driven by sharper retention strategies\, more effective donor acquisition\, and better-aligned resource allocation. \nWhat You Will Walk Away With\n– A clear\, executive-level view of your 2026 performance. Assess your results against current sector benchmarks\, including donor retention\, online giving trends\, and overall revenue patterns shaping 2027.\n– Insight into what will drive your 2027 results. Identify where your fundraising program is overperforming\, underperforming\, and where immediate strategic adjustments will yield the greatest return.\n– High-impact strategies you can implement immediately. Leave with three proven approaches to accelerate revenue early in the year\, including lapsed donor reactivation\, monthly giving conversion\, and channel optimization.\n– A proven strategic framework. Move efficiently from year-end analysis to a diversified fundraising plan\, incorporating digital growth\, donor retention\, and emerging funding opportunities. \nThis is a working session for leaders responsible for results—not a theoretical discussion. Use the live Q&A to refine your approach\, with full access to the session recording and materials for your team. \nYour 2027 results will be shaped by the decisions you make now. Make them count. \nLearn more about our certificate programs! \nFacilitator:\n \nKerry Watterson is the Founder & CEO of Fundraising Well\, a certified LGBT Business Enterprise that strengthens and amplifies the impact and income of nonprofits and fundraising professionals around the world.
