About this listen
In this episode of Deep Dive For Impact, Nick discusses several best practices that an organization can utilize when preparing to make a fundraising ask. We go over two "pre-best practices" during the preparation stage before discussing the five best practices during the actual ask process. Finally, we conclude with a stepwise mental model that allows us to view the ask as a sequence rather than as a one-time event.
