Gifts Don’t Motivate Fundraisers

Original Broadcast Date: February 9, 2016

Do you find that hard to swallow? Do you flat out disagree? Join Katrina VanHuss, Turnkey CEO, on February 9th as she discusses this hot topic with Taly Fantini, Director of National Signature Events for ALS, and Otis Fulton, Turnkey psychologist.

The idea that gifts motivate fundraising is like the idea that the earth is flat, because that is the way it looks. Dig into that idea and you find out not only that it isn’t true, but that an understanding of why it isn’t empowers you as a p2p fundraiser in crazy ways!

We’ll talk in more depth about the psychology of why that is, and show you statistics which prove the concept.

This webinar recording will help you:

• Gain insights into the mindset and tendencies of the volunteer fundraiser
• Learn how to avoid falling into market relationships and foster social relationships
• Understand the counter-intuitive data results you might get
• Get tips on how to install affinity in your fundraisers
• Plan how to move even zero dollar fundraisers into action using these principles
