In this episode of the Fundraising Masterminds Podcast, we'll be diving deep into the topic of plated dinners vs. buffets for nonprofits. We'll explore why your choice of serving style matters, and how it can profoundly influence the success of your nonprofit's event.
Join us as we look at ChatGPT's opinion on the four potential benefits of buffets for nonprofits, and how Jim and Jason's personal experience measures up to it. We'll talk about how important it is to create an elegant experience for your guests, and just how buffets utterly fail to do this.
Then, we'll discuss the five key reasons why a plated meal can provide a more memorable and enjoyable experience for your donors. We'll explore the cost-benefit ratio of your donors' time, and demonstrate just how hosting a plated dinner will skyrocket your donors' giving.
So tune in today to uncover the hidden cost of buffets for nonprofits - because though they might seem cheaper, they will cost you so much more in the end! This is a controversial episode that you won't want to miss.

NEED HELP WITH YOUR NONPROFIT?
Most nonprofits are under-funded.  Even if you think your nonprofit is doing well, we've found you could be doing much better.   However, most nonprofits don't have a clear development strategy that keeps them grounded.  As a result, they "get creative" and "try new things" based on what is popular or trending, or they get comfortable with where they are at and don't realize the dangers they will be facing in just a few short years.
The Perfect Vision Dinner Course is a 20-week "live video" course that addresses this problem head on.  The course was developed by Jim Dempsey after 38+ years as a Senior Development Director at Cru.  After Jim had personally done over 2,500 vision dinners in his lifetime and raised over $1 billion worldwide, Jim and Jason have partnered together to bring you Fundraising Masterminds.   Our first course, The Perfect Vision Dinner is a time-tested proven formula that will introduce our development system and grow your nonprofit to its maximum potential.
The course includes 20-hours of personalized development coaching from Jim Dempsey and Jason Galicinski and also includes a real-time community group where you have access to everyone attending the course and also our Masterminds throughout the course.
The goal for this course is to fully equip you with a Biblical basis for Development so that you can Win, Keep and Lift new partners to higher levels of involvement with your nonprofit.
