"I usually never send any responses to email newsletters but I just wanted to tell you that I really like all of your insight and “snark” as you call it.  I’m just disappointed I didn’t find you sooner even though I had spent 6 years working just north of you in the Seattle region through June 2013. Looking forward to everything you send in 2014."  

Jocelyn A. Van Coney, MPA, Development & Marketing Director , Alpha Home

I can’t thank you enough for providing such informative and enjoyable webinars, especially addressing sponsorships.  The information you impart is so complete and comprehensive that there is no room for wondering if I have all of the info needed to create the sponsorship packages or to go out and seek the support.  Confidence is a wonderful by-product of participating in your webinars.  Others may give info that helps you with the nuts and bolts, but it is only by your unique presentation style and personality infused into the presentations that you buoy participants on to move forward, full steam ahead.

Your webinar was fantastic! Chock full of usable information which I will be putting to use. Love the one page development plan. I’ve been seeking some type of format. Think I’ve found it! Plus your ideas are great! Also the concept of developing your fundraising team. When you run a small program, you tend to think of yourself as being alone but you really aren’t! These concepts are amazing. -Julie Condy, Executive Director, Crescent City Lights Youth Theatre

Thanks so much for everything. -Molly Ola Pinney, Founder/ CEO, Global Autism Project
