Nonprofit leaders in/near OKC - consider joining me for the next installment of Regent Bank's Nonprofit Leadership Series, on Wednesday, August 28! Regent Bank generously provides this breakfast event to nonprofit leaders at no cost. 💡 I'll be walking us through a session on Measuring Metrics that Matter. Many non-profit leaders lean on value-based metrics as a way to keep track of their fundraising efforts. However, when these metrics aren't aligned with building meaningful donor relationships, they can stress your fundraising team without delivering the results you want. What you measure and how you measure can also blind you to hidden problems that are stifling growth. In this presentation, we'll discuss how to measure metrics that matter, ways to view your data to gain key insights, and how you can use data to set your fundraising team up for success. Reserve your ticket here: https://lnkd.in/gPR_s9Qx #NonprofitLeadership #NonprofitFundraising #FundraisingMetrics #MetricsThatMatter
