Secret weapon to closing 7-figure gifts

Often with ultra-high-net-worth individuals, you only get one shot (like Eminem said) or one meeting a year to ask for a six or 7-figure gift.

Or it may come down to one email that matters most in closing their gift for the year.

Damn, does every word matter in that email.

And if you leave significant money on the table, you usually don't realize until it's too late.

Then, you're forced to wait at least another 12 months before you can broach the topic of giving again with that donor.

This is usually when people come to me because they unintentionally blew it with their highest-level donors and still need to raise significant funding for their ambitious goals with limited time left in the year.

The truth is this: There are only so many donors and prospects who can give 7-figure gifts.

When you get the meeting with Oprah, don't you want the best possible strategy and backup plan possible? Or will you scramble at the last minute to put together a pitch deck you don't absolutely love?

Once you leave money on the table with one ultra-high-net-worth donor, how many donors do you have left this year to help you get to your ambitious goals?

People will step up and give extraordinary gifts. You just need to have the right strategy beforehand to make the most of every moment and adapt your strategy as things change. And we know they will change. On a dime.

Imagine having an expert who has done this before (and knows how investment level donors think) in your ear, guiding you, helping you come up with a plan, finding the right words and assuring you when you're on the right track.

Here's what I teach my clients and help them to do:

• Ask for more by centering the donor's passion, making giving more the obvious choice

• Communicate and negotiate with high-net-worth individuals, so that you stop leaving so much money on the table

• Close 7-figure gifts from billionaires and it was their first 7-figure donation the donor ever gave

• Get high-profile supporters to attend events in-person for the first-time

• Optimize email communication, marketing assets and meetings with donors to raise their largest gifts ever

I can help you not only get your best gifts from your highest-level supporters, but build the relationship into a strong partnership.

I can help you avoid the pitfalls ahead, know how to handle when things change on a dime, and make the most of every conversation with your most important relationships to achieve your ambitious goals.

P.S. You have two options: hire an expert for a time to help you up-skill how to do this yourself (that's me) or hire someone as an experienced member of your team who can be an in-house strategist. Either way, you need support if you're serious about growing fast and 5x’ing your impact in the next 2-3 years.
