Is it time we ditch the marketing funnel and replace it with a flywheel?
Today we’re introducing the concept of the Fundraising Flywheel—a 5-step framework to help donors become an important part of the team and improve your fundraising.
The flywheel is simply our way of codifying the fundamentals of fundraising done well:
- Listen
- Engage
- Ask
- Celebrate
- Report
A flywheel is like a big, heavy wheel that helps things keep moving.
It’s like a toy top that you spin.
Once you get it spinning, it keeps going for a little while, even after you stop turning it.
The Fundraising Flywheel works the same way. It’s a bit of work to get it spinning.
But once you master the 5 parts of the flywheel, your fundraising flywheel will start to gain momentum reliably. With a lot less effort on your part.
Your revenue will grow—and so will your career.
