Stop Starting With the Ask
Traditional opening: "Will your company donate?"
Better opening: "Can we help your company solve something first?"
A business may need
- Funding
- Savings
- Better technology
- Marketing
- Employee solutions
- Operational improvements
The nonprofit may then gain
- Trust
- Relationships
- Referrals
- Sponsorship
- Community participation
- Donations
- Eligible OfferGRID compensation
Potential outcomes vary. No financial result is guaranteed.
