Do you wish fundraising was easier? Do you wish you didn’t have to worry so much about the money? Feeling the awkwardness, the icky-shame feeling of asking for money? Putting so much effort in but still getting “nos” or worse… ghosting?I’m excited you’re here!! This is the place for you to learn how to fundraise easier, get rid of the shame and awkwardness of asking for money, and finally start growing supporters for your ministry that stay for the long haul!Hi, I’m Lisa. I love Jesus, have been in ministry since I was born (missionary kid here) and I love being a part of what God is doing in people’s lives!I’ve worked with and in ministries that struggle to truly connect with supporters. I’ve seen the stigma around raising support, the scramble across platforms and videos to “keep up,” and the relentless trial-and-error that never quite clicks—often ending in burnout.But then I saw first hand the power of story and was BLOWN AWAY at how quickly it engaged donors and encouraged them to donate- the first time I used the power of story in our messaging, we raised so much support, the team wasn’t even prepared for it! This had never happened before!And I want the same for your ministry!!If you’re ready to finally raise the support you need—without the constant stress or worry…If you want to grow your base of supporters and keep them with you for the long haul…If you’re looking for a simple strategy you can use again and again—one that replaces burnout with confidence…And if you’re ready to drop the awkward, icky, or shameful feelings around asking for money…Then this podcast is for you.Grab your coffee, your calling, and maybe a snack—let’s do this.-LisaConnect w/ me:lisa@irisstorytelling.comhttps://irisstorytelling.com

99 | Stop Losing Ministry Donors: The Fundraising Follow-Up Strategy That Wins More Yeses

You thought they were excited about your ministry. They asked great questions. The conversation went well. Then… nothing. Many ministry leaders assume silence means someone isn’t interested. That assumption quietly costs ministries supporters every year. In this episode, I’ll show you why following up isn’t pushy, why most people simply get distracted, and the simple follow-up system I use to confidently reconnect with potential donors—without feeling awkward or salesy.
