Capital Campaign Counsel

Thinking About a Capital Campaign? Don't Start With the Goal. Start With Readiness.

The Philanthropy Blueprint helps nonprofit leaders assess readiness, develop strategy, identify prospects, and guide a campaign from planning through execution - before a dollar goal is set in stone.

Let's Talk About Campaign Readiness

Our Campaign Approach

A successful campaign is a sequence. We start with readiness, then build the leadership, case, prospects, and strategy that make solicitation possible.

1

Readiness

We assess whether the organization, board, and donor base are actually ready - before the goal is announced.

2

Leadership

Campaign success depends on the right people in the right roles. We help structure leadership and committee development.

3

Case

We develop a case for support that makes the project clear, compelling, and fundable to the people who can give.

4

Prospects

We identify who is already in a position to fund the campaign - and where the greatest opportunities exist.

5

Strategy

With readiness, leadership, case, and prospects in place, we build the campaign strategy, timeline, and structure.

6

Solicitation

We prepare solicitation strategy so the right people make the right asks, in the right order.

7

Campaign

We guide campaign management from planning through execution so the work stays organized after the quiet phase begins.
