99. Maximizing Donor Engagement by Challenging Assumptions
Manage episode 425488125 series 3508844
In this episode, I’m exploring the impact of negative thoughts and assumptions on nonprofit marketing, fundraising, and how you view the world around you, and your possibility for success. Drawing from Jay Shetty's insights at a recent conference, he shared that 80% (of our 60,000) daily thoughts are negative and want to discuss how this mindset can hinder your professional and personal growth!
I’m sharing practical strategies, including one of my favorite exercises that you can do in 10 minutes, to identify and challenge these assumptions, improve donor engagement, and foster a positive and productive environment. This episode offers valuable tools for nonprofit leaders, marketers, and fundraisers to enhance their mental framework and achieve better outcomes.
Topics:
- How our daily thoughts inform the enjoyment and satisfaction of our lives and how to have more control over your more negative thoughts.
- Recognizing that our brain often assumes worst case scenario when we are interacting with people and avoiding the underdog mindset
- The most important thing to remember when someone responds with “Let me get back to you.” after a donor ask
- Positive “Iffermations” you can recite to yourself to overcome the resistance of rejection, frequency, and assumptions
