Before a donor is willing to contribute to your cause, they have to buy in on your mission and also trust that you’ll use their funds wisely. To top it all off, many donors don’t stick around for the long haul and you’re always in a vicious cycle of needing to find fresh donors to keep your organization alive and running. All of this can leave you wondering: Will fundraising always be an uphill battle, or is there a better way?   In today’s episode, J.J. and April talk with Cathy McIntosh (StoryBrand Certified Guide), Jake Jordan (Business Made Simple Certified Coach), and James Thorne – authors of the book “Lasting Donor Locator.” These three nonprofit experts share how you can use storytelling in your social media to find new and lasting donors to partner with your organization.
