In this episode of the Fundraising Masterminds Podcast, we're talking about the major differences between a golf tournament and a golf marathon. We'll be asking the question: which one's better? Join us today as we break down the essential elements of each type of golf event. We'll explain the newer concept of the golf marathon - designed to maximize pure fundraising by correlating dollars raised to the number of holes played - as well as the more traditional golf tournament, which emphasizes quality time especially with major donors at exclusive venues. Discover how vastly different these two types of events are, and how they actually fall on opposite sides of the development spectrum. Understand the importance of choosing the right event for your organization's needs. And learn how each event impacts your fundraising goals and donor relationships in a unique way. So whether or not you're a seasoned golfer, we're sure you'll learn something from this episode. Remember, you should be judging all of your fundraising efforts by the standard of the development model. So does a golf event measure up?

Get back to basics with....DEVELOPMENT BASICS The Biblical Basis for Development for Nonprofit Leaders ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fundraisingmasterminds.net/development-basics⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 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. → ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://FundraisingMasterminds.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: → Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://instagram.com/fundraising.masterminds⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠→ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://facebook.com/fundraising.masterminds⁠⁠⁠ Episode Keywords: --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fundraising-masterminds/support
