4 Factors to Consider When Creating a Fundraising Consultant Job Description That Fits Your Needs

There are many fundraising consultants out there, so it is crucial that you understand what you need before hiring. Below are some factors to consider to help you choose the right fit for your company:

1. What Type of Fundraising Consultant Do You Need?

There are many types of fundraisers: fun runs/walks, non sport competitions, galas, concerts, auctions, and more. Fundraising consultants often specialize in specific areas, so it’s important to understand what type of fundraising consultant is best for your organization and audience.

2. Employee vs. Consultant

Fundraisers can be full-time employees, but most are consultants that can be hired on a full-time or part-time basis. In-house consultants are usually employed by nonprofit organizations that are in fundraising mode throughout the year. If there are several events scheduled to raise money every season, then hiring a full-time fundraiser is an excellent approach. For organizations and nonprofits that focus on just a few fundraising opportunities, leveraging a fundraising consultant’s services only during fundraising season works best, as a consultant will not require full-time benefits and salary.

3. Experience

Finding a fundraising consultant with the best mix of experience and expertise is ideal. Fundraisers who have been practicing their craft for only a year or two might be suitable for small-donation fundraising events and programs that involve typical members of the population. For events or programs that involve high-dollar donations and significant volumes, a more experienced fundraising consultant is best. More-experienced fundraising consultants have a track record dealing in significant donation amounts and engaging with high-net-worth individuals.

For example, board members from the American Heart Association might look for a more experienced development consultant or a high-quality consulting firm, since they have a capital campaign that involves a lot of monetary transactions.

4. Industry

Fundraising consultants might specialize in raising money for specific causes, such as animal rights, the poor, conservation, education, civil rights, or women’s rights. When looking for a fundraising consultant, finding one with extensive experience working in one of the areas you need can pay dividends in the long run due to their expertise in the area and contacts they may already have in that particular interest area.

Next Steps

So you’re now ready to begin looking for a fundraising consultant. Great fundraising consultants can be found on Upwork. Their qualifications are listed along with their experience, giving you all the information to find the right fit for you.

My 15 years of experience tell me that your presentation will hypnotize the audience. They will reach into their wallets and swing it. They will immediately act upon your request and beg you to tell them the magic words. And here is why I am so convinced: • You get your audience's problems. Presentation hits them where it hurts. • Your presentation uses behavioral tricks to amplify your speech. • Your audience will see a future so bright they'll need shades. • You'll explain the 'how' of change so clearly that they'll see it's the only way. • They understand that inaction will be apocalyptic. • They know how to grab your solution. Here is what I do for your success: • I employ copywriting techniques to magnify your presentation. • I design the slides so they glue your viewers' eyes on the screen. • I use various software to create motion graphics and illustrations to tell a convincing story. • I will transform your presentation into a responsive website if needed. So it's more accessible and professional. So do not hesitate; consultation is free. If I do not convince you during the call, you know I am just a hot air. But I am not, so let's talk.

Hi, I'm Mary Helen, a professional writer with a knack for engaging readers and converting them into clients. My websites, emails, and other collateral dramatically boost conversions. My writing is authentic, and everyone's looking for more authenticity these days. My approach? I first clarify the company brand, who the customers are (and what they're looking for), and how a product or service will result in their success. Then I write concise, relatable copy that supports the brand and builds loyalty. Does building loyalty sound amorphous? It's not really. Because my writing style feels authentic to readers your copy will sound grounded, real, and alive with YOUR personality. People trust authenticity. So, back to basics ... my writing converts! But you don't have to take it from me. Listen to what my clients have said about me: • Mary Helen has made a significant difference in our conversions. She digs to understand what you want, then works with you to attain your goal and beyond. I'll have her "on my staff" for a long time! • She has a unique ability to listen to your brand vision, understand what you're thinking, and bring it to life. • She's a consummate professional, committed and dedicated to seeing your project succeed. Here's the shortlist of collateral I produce: ** Website copy & landing pages ** Auto Responder emails ** Articles & blog posts ** White papers, flyers, brochures, eBooks ** Tag lines and log lines ** Video scripts & speeches ** Product descriptions I also offer website consultation if you want to make your existing copy and flow more effective. I'm adept at spotting the problems and highlighting the gold -- your site will sing and convert. If my style sounds good to you and you're great to work with, contact me and let's talk about your project!

After becoming a senior research analyst, I published numerous market analysis reports and perfected my investment analysis skills across various asset classes (including Private Equity/PE). Working on multiple business plans and confidential information memorandums (CIM) also gave me a deep knowledge of creating compelling data room/investment package materials. My skills were further advanced during my tenure at San Francisco-based venture capital firm Mission One Capital, where I served as a senior financial analyst and gained valuable insights into the VC capital raising process. I also mastered pitch deck preparation and investor pitch coaching skills. Scanning numerous deals daily allowed me to internalize the principles of conducting successful investor sourcing and investor outreach activities. I reverse-engineered startup fundraising and investor research process and gained invaluable due diligence skills.

A short overview: EXPERIENCE * Writing and proofreading of website, articles, brochures, invitation letters, flyers, books * Creating new parts of a website (content, database, structure, pictures) including its administration * Content Management * Assistent / Administration of an association * Customer support in German, English, Spanish * Project management, monitoring and planning * Fundraising (foundations, crowdfunding) * Public relations, Website, Social Media * Translating German, English, Spanish * Finding creative solutions and think outside the box * Sustainability, Intercultural Communication A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT ME I am a native german, currently living in Costa Rica, after a year in Uruguay and some time in Frankfurt, my hometown in Germany. I sometimes need some days to answer because internet in the Costa Rican forest isn't the best. I am fluent in German, English and Spanish. I used all 3 languages in my former position as a project manager in a small NGO in Germany. I can handle numbers, all Office programs, schedules - everything what f.i. a virtual assistent needs to be able to do. I worked in communications, on- and offline, the last 6 years. Communication contained of nature- and sustainability-related issues on our website (Wordpress), social media, newsletters, letters, flyers, brochures as well as in person and via e-mail. I also handle the creative part of f.i. a flyer. Networking was also part of my job, as well as fundraising through foundations or crowdfunding. I was also administrating different parts of the NGO (when needed) while monitoring the projects in Costa Rica, being stationed in Germany. A more detailed description of my different positions can be found in my employment history. My personal interests and preferred topics is everything related to sustainability, personal development and art - but that is rather a personal interest at this point of my life. If I can work with those topics remotely, even better! Meanwhile working I finished another career in Integral-Therapeutical Art Pedagogy, which allows me to work with my creative and social skills - offline up to this point. Personal development plays a huge role in my life. My dream is to connect personal development via art therapy with sustainable development. I love to travel and explore our world and its different cultures, flora and fauna. I want to live more self-determined, thus I chose the way of working remotely. I want to use my multi-talents to help whoever needs something done. Whatever you need, just write me - I am sure we will work it out successfully!
