Looking to increase donor trust and recruit more aligned donors to your non-profit? The key lies in your marketing. That might sound obvious, but non-profit marketing goes deep. So, let’s dive in. 

Priscilla McKinney, CEO of Little Bird Marketing, is a sought-after keynote speaker, prolific blogger, podcast host, industry innovator, and diversity champion. She personifies creativity, entrepreneurship, and authentic leadership – inspiring others to carve out their own path to success. With a fiery passion for marketing and sustainable lead generation, Priscilla has quite a few gems of wisdom to share with you about fundraising for non-profit organizations.

In this episode, Priscilla shares powerful insights on defining your donor persona, finding balance between operational transparency and storytelling, and getting out of the harmful scarcity mindset that runs rampant in the non-profit sector.

You’ll learn how to connect to your ideal donors en masse, the reality of how the scarcity mindset is impacting your non-profit, and why you don’t need to be as transparent with donors about certain things but you definitely need to be open about others.

In this episode, you will learn the following:

1. How can businesses create meaningful messages that resonate with an audience?

2. What is the importance of understanding the motivations behind why donors give?
