Compelling Conversations for Fundraisers takes Chimayo Press in a new direction entirely.

Written by Janet Levine and Laurie A. Selik, Compelling Conversations for Fundraisers assembles years of first-hand experience from two unique professional perspectives. The authors offer many insights and revealing examples on the art of compelling conversation. Fundraising newcomers and seasoned pros alike will learn proven techniques to help build authentic donor relationships, including savvy conversation strategies for various professional encounters. You can find it on Amazon here.
Praise for Compelling Conversations for Fundraisers
Compelling Conversations for Fundraisers has also gained an enthusiastic response from the philanthropic community. Natalie Rodriguez, director of the College Excellence Program at The Aspen Institute, writes: Compelling Conversations for Fundraisers reminds us that human interests drive philanthropy and encourages fundraisers to weave authenticity through their conversations.”
Connections matter. Branded by Debbie A. Cannon of the Academy for Grassroots Organizations as “a refreshing and profound tool,” Compelling Conversations for Fundraisers, she notes, “reminds us skills such as listening, being direct and simply having a conversation about our shared passions touches our basic need to be heard and make the connection with other like-minded people.”
Meanwhile Gregory Bradbard, President & CEO of Inland Empire United Way, praises the authors’ candor, observing that “Janet and Laurie take the mystery out of asking for money by breaking conversation down to a very easy-to-understand and applicable level.”
