Easiest $10K You Can Add to Your Next Event | Brittany Pilcher

Brittany Pilcher, Director of Development at Quest Inc., joins Trevor to walk through exactly how her team added a Golden Ticket Raffle to WineQuest , a $500,000 two-night gala in Orlando and sold out 100 tickets in 72 hours.Brittany doesn't sugarcoat the hesitation. She talks through why she almost didn't do it, the moment she decided to pull the trigger three weeks out, and how the raffle pulled in nearly $8,000 of pure incremental revenue without adding meaningful work to her team. More importantly: she breaks down what she'd do differently next year, including running two ticket tiers and considering corporate underwriting to cover the cost upfront.In this episode: why the $100 price point is the sweet spot, when to announce the winner in your program (and when not to), how to get your board and committee actually sharing the raffle, and the part most organizations miss, the 100 new names in your database that you can steward long after the event.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:00 Introduction to the Golden Ticket02:18 Hesitations and Strategies for Ticket Sales06:01 Psychology of Ticket Sales and Winner Announcement 08:49 Impact of the Golden Ticket on Fundraising10:49 Quest Inc.: Mission and Community EngagementHave a question or topic you'd like us to cover?

Your Board Won't Fundraise? Stop Asking Them To | Elise Woodworth

Most fundraising problems aren't fundraising problems. They're board problems.Elise Woodworth — VMI alum, Air Force veteran, and author of Business Not Battle — joins Trevor to unpack why so many nonprofit boards stall out, and what to actually do about it. She came to this work through a back door (the VMI Foundation made her their first female and youngest-ever trustee), and her approach is unusual: instead of teaching EDs how to manage their boards, she teaches board members how to be effective in the first place.In this episode: the 20-minute Champion's Elevator Pitch exercise you can run at your next meeting, the four thoughtful questions that move a stuck organization forward, why Elise refuses to say the word "fundraising" with new boards, and her four-month blueprint for turning around a burned-out board.If you've ever said "I can't get my board to fundraise," this one's for you.Chapters:00:00 Intro00:55 Understanding Strength and Strategic Mindset05:45 Journey into Nonprofit Leadership11:14 Empowering Board Members14:53 Embracing Change for Growth18:37 Aligning Mission and Leadership19:19 The Champion's Elevator Pitch24:11 Transforming Fear into Invitation30:35 Passion for Nonprofit ImpactHave a question or topic you'd like us to cover?

Events are the Vehicle, Not the Destination | Kristen Bowles

Most fundraisers treat events like the finish line. Kristen Bowles treats them like the starting point.In this episode, Trevor sits down with Kristen — a development pro who's worked across the YMCA, Boys & Girls Club, peer-to-peer fundraising, and now the National MS Society — to unpack why sponsorship sales isn't transactional. It's strategic matchmaking.We get into:Why "plan, post, and pray" is killing your sponsor retentionThe mindset shift from "sponsor of an event" to "investor in your mission"How to segment donors by engagement, not dollar amount (and why a $100 donor might be your next major gift)Mission nuggets: the research habit every frontline fundraiser needsFree tools Kristen uses to research sponsors (hint: it's not a fancy database)Why events are really about how you make people feelIf you're a frontline fundraiser, event planner, or auctioneer, this one's full of takeaways you can use Monday morning.Have a question or topic you'd like us to cover?

Why 3 Events in a Row Creates Lifelong Donors | Emily Preble

Most nonprofits measure events by one number: how much they raised. Emily Preble thinks that's the wrong starting point.Emily is a fundraising consultant and professional auctioneer based in Austin, and in this episode she walks through the question she asks every client before planning an event — and it has nothing to do with the goal. Trevor and Emily get into why more attendees doesn't mean more money, how to turn corporate-table guests into lifelong donors, the post-event gratitude strategy most orgs skip, and the research-backed reason three consecutive events matter more than almost anything else you'll do.Chapters: 00:00 Intro00:37 Celebrating Tom: The Heart of Our Team03:37 Emily Preble: A Passion for Fundraising05:03 The Role of Consulting in Nonprofit Success07:05 Understanding Event Goals Beyond Fundraising09:01 Engaging New Attendees and Building Lasting Relationships14:08 Reviving Energy in Fundraising Events18:14 Importance of Community and Connection21:33 Long-Term Goals in Fundraising 24:25 Gratitude and Recognition27:00 Rapid Fire Insights on Fundraising30:45 Closing Thoughts and Future ConnectionsHave a question or topic you'd like us to cover?

The Small Things Costing Your Gala BIG Money

Max Wolf has spent nearly a decade auctioneering fundraising events, and he's seen the patterns that separate the galas that crush it from the ones that fall flat.In this episode, Max and Trevor get into:– How one event lost 65% of its fundraising by replacing the paddle raise with self-checkout text-to-give– The question every nonprofit needs to answer honestly: "Is this a party or a fundraiser?"– Why a 20-minute mission speaker can sink your entire night (and the cake analogy that explains why)– The "fishing moment" that quietly raises an extra $5K — $100K above your anchor gift– Why volunteer auctioneers are the real competition, not other pros — and when that math actually changes– The biggest shift Max has seen post-COVID and what it means for your event strategyPlus, Max is giving away his Auction Playbook for free — built from 10 years of seeing what works and what doesn't.Have a question or topic you'd like us to cover?

Why Event Timing Is Make-or-Break for Fundraising Success

Most nonprofit events run too long — and it's costing you donations.In this webinar, event strategist Reggie Rivers and expert auctioneer Matt Roben break down why shorter, more focused events consistently raise more money than marathon galas. Reggie shares the neuroscience behind donor attention spans, why 9 PM is the critical cutoff for fundraising asks, and how his organization increased revenue by cutting their event time in half.Matt and Reggie also tackle sponsorship models that actually work (hint: stop giving away free tickets), how to structure your timeline so fundraising happens at peak engagement, and why charging for tickets — even with a sliding scale — leads to better results.If you've been running 4-hour events and wondering why energy (and donations) tank halfway through, this session will change how you plan your next gala.*Have a question or topic you'd like us to cover?* Let us know https://hgafundraising.com/ask-your-questions/🔗 *CONNECT WITH US* 🔗Connect with Trevor on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/trevor-nelson-b8922a167/Follow Hey Nonprofits! on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/hey-non-profits-raise-more-money/*CONNECT WITH REGGIE RIVERS*🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reggierivers/🌐 Website: https://thegalateam.com/✉️ reggie@thegalateam.com*CONNECT WITH MATT ROBEN*🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-roben/🌐 Website: https://www.iammatt.com/✉️ me@iammatt.com🔑 *What You'll Learn:*✅ Why shorter events raise more money (backed by neuroscience)✅ The 9 PM rule: when donor attention and generosity peak✅ How to structure your event timeline for maximum fundraising impact✅ Why giving away free tickets hurts your revenue (and what to do instead)✅ Sliding scale ticket pricing that increases participation without devaluing your event✅ Sponsorship models that generate revenue without endless sponsor recognition✅ How to manage room transitions and noise without losing donor engagement✅ The optimal order for mission moments, paddle raises, and live auctions✅ Pre-event engagement strategies that prime donors to give before they arrive✅ Post-event follow-up that converts attendees into recurring supporters✅ How to promote auction items so they actually drive competitive bidding*Chapters*00:00 Introduction and Special Mentions02:00 Reggie Rivers' Experience and Event Success03:08 Introduction of Panelists: Reggie Rivers and Matt Roben06:18 Why Shorter Events Increase Fundraising Effectiveness09:45 Timing of Fundraising and Engagement Peaks13:45 Using Neuro Science to Enhance Donations16:40 Ticket Pricing and Value Perception19:00 The Power of Charging for Tickets26:10 Post-Event Follow-up and Donor Engagement31:10 Managing Room Transitions and Audience Attention35:16 Innovative Sponsorship and Underwriting Opportunities42:12 Controlling Room Noise and Engagement48:04 Live Auction Item Preparation and Presentation53:00 Advertising and Promoting Auction Items57:15 Pre-Event Engagement and Donor Preparation💙 *ABOUT HGA FUNDRAISING* 💙This episode was brought to you by HGA Fundraising.
