Your Fundraising Ecosystem, Supercharged

Stop Building in Silos. Start Building Momentum.

 You’re not just looking for another grant template or crowdfunding tip; you need a cohesive fundraising system where every strategy amplifies the others.


Most creative projects and nonprofits treat fundraising like a collection of separate tasks: write a grant here, launch a crowdfunding campaign there, maybe send some donor emails when you remember. But here’s what nobody tells you: fragmented fundraising leaves money on the table.


When your grant success stories don’t fuel your individual donor campaigns… when your crowdfunding backers disappear after one gift… when your corporate partnerships exist in isolation from your foundation relationships… you’re working three times as hard for a fraction of the results.

What If Every Funding Strategy Made the Others Stronger?

 Imagine a fundraising system where:


  • Your crowdfunding campaign automatically builds your recurring donor pipeline
  • Your grant calendar aligns with individual giving campaigns for year-round momentum
  • One-time supporters naturally evolve into major gift prospects
  • Your community support demonstrates viability to foundations
  • Your foundation wins create social proof for individual donors
  • Every funding stream reinforces and amplifies the others


That’s what an integrated fundraising ecosystem does.

And with a VIP Strategy Intensive, we’ll build yours together; in just 1.5 days.

Why This Works: The Power of Integration

 

Traditional approach: Launch a crowdfunding campaign. When it ends, start from scratch with grant writing. Then pivot to individual donor outreach. Repeat.


Integrated approach: Your crowdfunding campaign identifies recurring donor prospects. Your grant wins provide compelling stories for individual donor appeals. Your community support strengthens foundation proposals. Your corporate partnerships create sponsorship opportunities that benefit all channels.


The result? More funding, less burnout, sustainable growth. 

Is This Right for You?

This intensive is perfect if you:

This intensive is perfect if you:

This intensive is perfect if you:

 

  • Have multiple fundraising strategies but they feel disconnected
  • Launch campaigns that don’t build long-term donor relationships
  • Feel like you’re constantly starting over with fundraising
  • Know you’re leaving money on the table but aren’t sure how to fix it
  • Want a strategic roadmap, not just another tactic
  • Are ready to invest in transformational strategy (not just quick fixes)
  • Have a project or organization worth $50K+ in annual funding potential

This might not be right if you:

This intensive is perfect if you:

This intensive is perfect if you:

 

  • Need someone to execute fundraising for you (this is strategy, not done-for-you services)
  • Are looking for a quick grant list or template
  • Haven’t clarified your project’s mission and impact
  • Aren’t ready to implement within 90 days

What Makes This Different?

You’re not getting boilerplate fundraising advice.

 You’re getting a custom-built system designed specifically for your project’s goals, audience, and strengths.

You’re not working with a generalist.

 You’re working with a CFRE-certified fundraising expert who specializes in creative projects, fiscal sponsorship, and integrated strategy.

You’re not getting a one-size-fits-all template.

 You’re getting a roadmap that accounts for your unique positioning, resources, and growth trajectory. 

You’re not building in isolation.

 You’re getting expert guidance that connects the dots between funding strategies most consultants treat as separate services. 

The Investment

Think about what fragmented fundraising is costing you right now:


  • Crowdfunding campaigns that don’t build lasting relationships
  • Grant applications that don’t leverage your community support
  • Individual donors who give once and disappear
  • Missed opportunities because strategies don’t reinforce each other
  • Burnout from constantly reinventing your approach


Now imagine having a clear, integrated system where every fundraising activity builds momentum for the next.


That’s what you’re investing in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach out to us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

 Start with the Half-Day Strategy Sprint if you want to test the integrated approach and focus on one key connection point. Choose the Full VIP Intensive if you’re ready to build a complete system. Select the In-Person option if you have a team that needs training or want extended, hands-on collaboration.


 Not A Problem! We’ll map your fiscal sponsorship advantage into every strategy, helping you maximize opportunities that independent projects and traditional nonprofits can’t access. 


 We can incorporate fiscal sponsorship as part of your ecosystem strategy and connect you with The Funding Studio’s sponsorship services if it’s the right fit.


 No. This is strategic planning, not execution. You’ll leave with a complete roadmap and all the frameworks you need to implement (or hire others to execute). If you need execution support, we can discuss additional services after the intensive. 


You’ll have everything you need to implement your new fundraising ecosystem. For the In-Person Intensive, you also get 30 days of implementation support. Additional consulting, grant writing, or execution services are available separately. 


 Absolutely! We encourage key team members to participate, especially for the Full VIP and In-Person intensives.


 We require 14 days’ notice for rescheduling. Cancellations within 14 days forfeit 50% of the investment. 


 Yes! We offer 2-payment and 3-payment plans for all intensive tiers. Ask about options when you book.
