Partnerships Master Class
Finding new partners for your organization and growing your existing partnerships is an art and a science. Because the industry is still developing, today’s partnership practitioners often find themselves in uncharted territory, with no handbook to guide them. They must be visionary yet practical—balancing the concrete milestones with keeping the mission in sight.
Recognizing this balance, Social Capital has developed an interactive professional development opportunity designed especially for frontline fund raisers.
Training Agenda
Topics for the Partnerships Master Class will include:
Securing New High Potential Partners: Learn how to package, price and pitch your organization using your mission as the foundation for a partnership. We’ll share proven strategies and techniques for targeting the best prospects, getting in the door, and negotiating relationships that maximize unrestricted resources to your organization.
Retaining and Growing Current Partners: Often the best opportunities for growth are with those partners who are already with you. We’ll show you how best of breed organizations retain partners for decades and are able year-after-year to increase the support from their current partners.
Proven Strategies for Functional Results in a Dysfunctional World: We understand that your organization is not perfect and that there are often significant and real barriers to partnership success. We’ve been in your shoes and will show you some strategies to get results—when it feels like the whole organization is a against you.
More details on the training agenda will be posted here as they become available.
