Webinars

Your fundraising event is in four weeks. Where do you focus your efforts during this critical time to maximize revenue opportunities at your event—and reduce your stress? In this webinar, fundraising expert Samantha Swaim will cover the five key tasks that will help you gracefully and efficiently navigate the most challenging phase of benefit event execution and deliver an event that flows smoothly on event night and meets your fundraising goals.

Based on Greater Giving client input, and working with a team of talented and experienced event planners, this webinar addresses the key concerns of nonprofit fundraisers holding benefit auctions. Topics include: • Volunteers: recruiting, managing, and retaining • Sponsors: recruiting, retaining, and program development • Event promotion: marketing, attracting new guests and online programs • Budgeting: ticket pricing, cutting unnecessary expenses, and revenue projection • Operational efficiency: getting the best return on investment, leveraging past event experience

Your committees are in place. Your kick-off meeting attendees were committed and enthusiastic. You have a budget, a venue, and have chosen a benefit auctioneer. You’re feeling great about your progress. And yet… You only have six months left before your key revenue resource for the year takes place! Are you securely positioned for fundraising success? It’s time to really step up your efforts and get strategic so you can overreach your goals. This webinar will focus on the key strategies you’ll need to implement to increase your fundraising, improve your sponsorship solicitation, and maximize your special appeal.
