Are you a nonprofit leader who feels stuck despite completing a strategic plan and hiring consultants?

It can be frustrating when you’ve “done the strategy” and still feel like you’re drowning in names and numbers to build a prospect list, complete a grant application or find Board candidates.

You need to make your strategic plan actionable. You need genuine, lasting engagement to power up your mission and increase your impact.

My guest is Beth Saunders, a strategic consultant who helps nonprofits connect people and programs to mission and goals by harnessing their expertise and tapping their data.

This is a strategy for centering donor communication around goals and creating personalized journeys that move them to support your mission in more and bigger ways. It’s how you make your strategic plan actionable.

Black women, the fastest growing segment of business owners, are the least likely to receive investments from venture capitalists. They account for less than 1 percent of the $424.7 billion raised in tech V.C. funding since 2009, according to the 2018 Project Diane study conducted by DigitalUndivided, an organization that empowers women entrepreneurs of color.

To address these disparities, and to provide a one-stop-shop for people looking to buy from Black women, my guest Nikki Porcher founded Buy From A Black Woman, a 501(c)3 that is committed to building the largest community of Black Women Business Owners across the country and around the globe.

Through educational programs, an online directory, and financial support and meaningful partnerships, Buy From A Black Woman continues to grow as a trusted resource that helps Black Women in business.

In this episode, we discuss why she created her nonprofit Buy From A Black Woman, how she built it from scratch to secure partnerships with H&M and Goldman Sachs, and how she cultivates a community of passionate supporters and donors.
