#157 All Matches Suck... Except This One
If you work in fundraising, you know almost all matches are fake... "Give before midnight and your money will be doubled!" No it won't. That money is already in the nonprofits account and it really doesn't matter if someone gives or not. At least that's how 99% of matches work in my experience. In this episode you'll hear my solution to using matches effectively to win at major gifts.Check out the One Visit Away Youtube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@OneVisitAway/shortsJoin the nearly 400 students in my online training program Major Gift Millions here: OneVisitAway.com/millions
