One slot available per week.
The Problem
Many nonprofits struggle to explain what they do in a way that makes donors think, “Yes — I want in.”
Instead, we:
Ramble through too much detail.
Fall back on vague “we change lives” statements.
Leave donors confused or unmoved.
If you don’t have a clear, powerful message, you’re leaving money and momentum on the table.
It’s not your fault. The problems you solve are complex — and when you spend every day untangling hard situations, the toughest question in the world is:
“So… what does your organization do?”
The Promise
In just one day, I’ll help you cut through the noise and create a donor-ready message that:
Sparks donor curiosity.
Opens doors to major gift conversations.
Positions your nonprofit as the one they have to support.
You’ll walk away knowing exactly what to say the next time a donor asks, “So… what do you do?”
What You Get
In your VIP Half-Day Intensive, we’ll:
Clarify your donor story: Who you are, why it matters, and what transformation you make possible.
Craft your core message: A tested, plug-and-play message you can use in donor meetings, emails, and proposals immediately.
Polish and practice: We’ll refine it together until it feels natural, confident, and powerful.
Plus, you’ll receive:
A 30-minute follow-up polish session within 2 weeks.
Rainmaker messaging templates to plug in your donor-ready message, so you’re ready for any situation.
Why This Works
I’ve spent nearly 20 years making the complicated simple.
From helping major companies sell millions of dollars’ worth of products, to guiding nonprofits and foundations through high-stakes campaigns, clear storytelling has always been my specialty.
I also spent a decade “behind the veil” as a funder, listening to what really makes a donor lean forward and say yes.
This isn’t theory or guesswork. It’s practical, field-tested messaging from both sides of the table — designed to get you real results in the real world.

“Like many in our sector, I’ve felt uncomfortable asking for money, but Ben has helped shift that mindset— the donor messaging framed fundraising as an invitation to invest in a mission that matters.”
