What to Expect in the Course

Your value proposition is the backbone of your fundraising – both online and offline. And contrary to what you may think, a strong value proposition is not just your mission statement.

A strong value proposition clearly articulates to your donors exactly why they should give to your organization rather than some other organization, or at all.

This 6-session course will fully equip you to craft a highly effective value proposition that inspires greater giving. 

During the sessions, you'll learn:

  • How to shift your perspective and put yourself in the shoes of your donors
  • The 4 key elements of an effective value proposition
  • How to contextualize your message for the right people at the right time
  • Essential value proposition experiments to run right away

Best of all, everything you learn in this course is based on learnings from over 4,000+ online fundraising experiments – not just gut feelings and "best practices."
