Eric Goodman - Delivering Dollars and Enthusiasm for Great Causes - Founder and Owner of Your Fundraising Team - and Co-Host of the Hot Takes with Goodman and Haertl sports podcast

I met Eric Goodman at a local non-profit event, when I happened to be seated at his table, and complimented him on an above-average performance as a volunteer emcee.  We shared some fun banter, but during the paddle-raise it was more than obvious (which I already suspected) - that he was a pro - and a damn good one.  

We connected after that, and during our first long phone call I shared how I sometimes emcee or paddle raise for events - but only as a volunteer - ya know, so he wouldn’t be threatened.  He challenged me - “You should charge - and learn enough so you do a great job and deserve to be paid!  I’ll mentor you, or teach you and a group of others from NOCO how to do it right if you like - no charge!”  I didn’t take him up on it - too busy I told myself - but we may revisit the idea.

That’s the kinda guy Eric is - focused on being the best at his craft, and encouraging others to fulfill their potential, and to live generously.  He drops a ton of great information to help non-profits fundraise better - and he’s a great conversationalist, so please enjoy my time together with Eric Goodman.
