And when you are kicking off your fiscal year or your calendar year, set those expectations high so people know what they can do to be helpful. It’s how my brain works.

I would spend my days daydreaming of everything my organization could do if only I could get the funding to do it, but I was spending 10 to 15 hours a day scattered. But they’re emailing donors for listening tours, and they’re doing funding searches based on warm leads. I was really miserable and I felt really alone.

I would spend my days daydreaming of everything my organization could do if only I could get the funding to do it, but I was spending 10 to 15 hours a day scattered. But they’re emailing donors for listening tours, and they’re doing funding searches based on warm leads. This has nothing to do with restricted or unrestricted funding.

Now, I have a whole nother talk I can give you on the nonprofit business model, but let me just tell you, nonprofits as businesses are more complex than for-profits.
