How many books have you already read? Articles you've saved for reference? People you've consulted? Workshops you've already attended? When it feels like the faucet's left dry and your fundraising efforts are still not working for your organization, it's time to seek a better way to address areas needing improvement and get help.  For STEM From Dance Executive Director Yamilée Toussaint Beach, she knew it was time to come to us when she decided it wasn't worth wasting months of her career and life trying to figure out how to reach donors on her own. She needed the right mindset in showing up for every meeting and the playbook to access unrestricted revenue that is not tied to foundations and projects.  As a leader who takes action with the knowledge given to her, Yamilée's organization grew from just under $1 million and scaled fast. Her new strategic plan calls for her to grow from $2 million to become a $10 million organization. Coaching her team and her board equips them to reach these targets so they can confidently achieve them.  Tune in to ??? ???????? ?????? ??????????? ??????? — Case Study with Yamilée Toussaint Beach: How She's Using Her 5X Revenue Goals To Attract Major Donors.  What You Will Discover:  ✔️ Nonprofit CEOs who understand that allocating resources to grow and develop themselves and their people are the ones that attract more investments in their business. Yamilée attributes thoughtfully investing in coaching & consultancy to spurring her org's growth from local and national to international, growing funding, and broadening donor base.   ✔️ Make that shift from transactional to relational fundraising.  In fundraising and life — the goal is, first, to be human. When you meet these potential donors face to face or send them emails, the key is never to come across as a transactional and inauthentic person. You can be casual and sincere instead of being seen as chasing after them. When the real person shows up, money will flow easily into your mission. ? ✔️ Navigating conversations and preparing for meetings requires a shift in mindset.  Working with Yamilée Toussaint Beach for a year allowed her to overcome the belief that, as an introvert, she couldn't become exceptional with fundraising. "I used to go in and feel like I had that one opportunity to make the ask. Now I can enter into meetings more confidently, knowing the trajectory, what to say, and having tools in hand that ease the donor into the ask. I don't feel like I'm chasing anymore or must ask for money. Now it feels more natural, and the conversation leads somewhere I've planned. I have less hesitation in asking because I feel more confident in discussions with donors. I simply approach donor communication in a completely different way." ✔️ Let's admit it. Loneliness follows the leader at the top.  You first had the vision of creating change in the world and trying to work it daily, even with insufficient funds. Find someone who can hold your hand in the process and gently help you get out of your head as you go out and bring more people to support your mission. —————————————— Yamilée Toussaint Beach is the Founder & CEO of STEM From Dance.
