#274 - Advice for NPO Start-ups with Tiffany Allen
Manage episode 401803255 series 3084084
Itching to make your passion project a legendary nonprofit? It might not be as straightforward as you think.
I sat down with my gal pal Tiffany Allen, founder and president of Boss on a Budget, to spill some piping hot tea about the real deal when it comes to starting up your own nonprofit.
And let me tell ya…it ain't as easy as just slapping a 501c3 on your passion project and watchin' the donations roll in! We debunk some major myths around funding and control that trip up many founder executive directors. The key is building relationships, people! Donors are community too.
Tiffany shares straight truth about the pitfalls nonprofit newbies face, like lacking systems and support early on. We dish out some real talk around trusting others to carry the vision, finding the right "who's" for your board, and avoiding burnout. Even us visionary bosses need help sometimes!
Overall, an enlightening convo you don't wanna miss if you're thinking about jumping into the nonprofit battlefield.
