I get it. Your nonprofit needs funding and these stories are emotional. But the problem is that this emotional storytelling (whether via video, pictures, blogs, etc.) can actually dishonor your beneficiaries. Just think about if your clients or beneficiaries read or watched what you wrote. Would they feel empowered? Or, would they feel disempowered? Mary Gladstone-Highland, CEO of Spark Group Consulting, is on the Grant Writing & Funding podcast and YouTube video to discuss how to share your nonprofit’s mission without misery through your story-telling.

Until it isn’t amazing. I’ve seen many nonprofit consultants pull their hair out (including me!) when they get the wrong type of client. ✨ The one that keeps negotiating your price down. ✨ The one that asks for continued revisions of grants outside of the scope of the contract. ✨ The one that doesn’t respect your boundaries. So how do you figure out who and what your ideal client is? Well, that’s what Mandy Pearce from Funding from Good and Mazarine Treyz from Wild Woman Fundraising share today!
